    3.5" (adjusted to 4.5") fabtech suspension lift. 15x8 procomp 252 crawlers. 32x11.5 BFG Ko2's.
    Hey guys I'm looking for some new coilovers and shocks for the front and rear of my Tacoma. I have a 3.5" fabtech lift currently installed but I'm looking for a better quality ride and more off-road capability.
    My current front fabtech coil overs are stretched out to 4.5" of lift so it's quite rough but worth it for the look.
    Basically I need 2 front coilovers and 2 rear shocks that will give me a smoother ride by keeping the same height height that I have right now. I'm not brand-loyal so any suggestions help.
    Thank you all

    Really just all depends on how much you want to spend

    I don't think new coilovers will get you the same height. Most top off at 3" of lift. Are you 4x4? If you are 2WD, a Spindle lift and new coil overs will give you the height and a nice ride with little preload.
