    I just got a 4 inch spindle lift up front with 3 inch block in back. Stock rear struts. Need help with rear ones and on what kind I should get. Rides stiff in back with stock ones. Please leave names of what kind of shocks I can get. To make it ride close to stock (Prerunner 2wd)

    Also need longer brake lines, or @a_oepb will be in for a nice surprise the first time the rear axle goes to full droop...

    Not sure a Prerunner with blocks is going to flex so hard.. I had plenty of slack with the same rear lift for road use, and never had issues dropping my tire into any ruts or otherwise.

    Go full suspension lift or light the truck on fire.

    Get dakars and nitros for the rear


    A 3" block... being stock is better than being cheap...

    dude you did a block lift. of course its going to ride rough. if you can deal with, great. if not, get suspension lift.
