    So I recently bought this fat bobs garage 2.75 inch lift kit, before I go to tear my truck down is there anything else I need ? I’ve read that if you’re going to lift a Tacoma close to 3 inches upgraded UCAs are recommended. I’ve also read that a “2.75 lift kit” will only result in 2 inches of lift. My question is are new UCAs needed ? And do I need new new front shocks ? Thinking of getting the 5100s if so. It comes with new rear shocks unbranded from fat bobs does anybody recommend other popular brand rear shocks ? Not too worried about ride quality truck only gets driven on weekends after putting 60,000 miles on it in a year and a half due to traveling to various jobsites (just cracked 150,000 miles) Tia for any answers and recommendations. Linked the kit I got below. https://4x4.fatbobsgarage.com/mobil...suspension-275-lift-kit--2005-2017-p7611.aspx
