    I have 08 Tacoma 2wd 4.0

    Looking on getting a hybrid front and a high rise bumper in the back.

    Adding this weight will I have to look into upgrading anything on my truck

    I have 2.5 belstine adjusteble shocks in the front. Stocks to the rear.

    And 16 inch rim on 285 75 16 pro comp tires



    Asking because I don't want jump into anything to fast. Without doing my homework first

    You should be fine with the Billies set at 2.5" up front with a hybrid bumper. I ran that exact setup for years with no problems. Might lose a little height up front because of the extra weight but not much. I have Billy's Brute Force Fab Hybrid bumper up front and I'm putting on a rear High Clearance bumper soon from Brute Force Fab as well. I do have a 1.5" progressive AAL lift in the back which should be fine for the rear bumper. Hope this helps you out man. I would say your good to go brotha :thumbsup:
