    I have a 2007 Tacoma with right over 260k miles. The suspension is the original stock suspension, and I am looking at getting it replaced. I will likely keep the truck to be a hunting truck when I get something newer in the next few years so I would like to at the very least level it out and put a little bigger tire on it. What is the best budget strut and suspension replacement? I don't want to break the bank with it having such high mileage. I am just looking for a little smoother everyday ride and getting it level to maybe a 2" lift.

    Cheapest is to buy someones 3rd gen takeoffs when they get a lift. The suspension parts all fit.

    They are less common now that the 4th gen is out.
