Burning a hole in my pocket.

2011 base reg cab 4x4, 2.7 5speed.

I have about $400 to lift my truck. I'm planning on 5100s front, and I currently have trd or takeoff suspension all around, so trd springs and shocks front and rear.

I also have a second 3leaf pack from when I upgraded to the trd suspension.

I want to do 5100s on .85 or so with trd coils and then build a custom leaf pack for the rear using my additional pack. I'd like maybe 2" all around and keep some rake.

If you had $400, and only $400, how would you lift your truck? Can I squeeze an aal in there and stay under budget?

What else do I need in addition to just the 5100 shocks? I'm thinking hardware, ubolt flip kit, brake lines, shims? Id like to get a complete list going of parts I need so I can be sure I am under my budget when all said and done.

I don't think I need to be concerned with driveline vibrations, UCA, brake lines or 5100 rear shocks for 2" and under, correct?

 

5100's and AAL should get you want you want for under $400. Start with that, and see how it looks and drives. You may get the dreaded vibration from the crap Toyota driver's side needle bearing after even a minor lift, but it's hit or miss - many don't, esp at the .85 setting.
