    well its a spacer lift so it'll diminish ride quality and reduce travel.

    I got a similar lift except for my 2012 Taco. Ride is a bit stiffer but my Taco is a pavement process until I get it paid off (mental block).

    I did it to get big wheels and tires, but eventually plan on doing a old man emu or icon lift.

    Decent enough lift, just depends on your use. Definitely wouldn't recommend for going offroad frequently because of the stiffer ride and travel.

    Adjustable Bilstein struts up front with stock coils and an add a leaf in the rear will cost you just a small amount more, give you a decent lift, and not be sketchy like spacer lifts

    Just my personal opinion.. some people will disagree. I have experience with spacer lifts on other trucks and they really do ride like shit. I have the lift that I just mentioned above and I love it. Its not going to ride like Icons but for what I do it works just fine for me (I don't have the balls, nor the power to need to do any rock crawling, etc. Just some snow and mud from time to time.)
