    Hey guys new to the forums. I have a 2012 double cab long box 4L Tacoma. I'm at the point to where I want to start modding it a bit. I was looking at putting a leveling kit on it. What's a good way to do about it? What's a good one to install?
    I want to keep factory ride as much as possible. I was thinking about putting bilsten 5100 on the front. Will they work? Are they good??

    Took mine to a 4Wheel parts store. Had ProComp 2.5" front spacers, a diff drop kit installed along with a 1" rear block & front end aligned. Parts & labor around $400.00. Ride feels a little more firm but nice. Tracks straight and no vibrations. I did add Firestone air bags as of late..... for when I carry heavy loads or tow. Boy they are nice!!! Enjoy your new ride.:)

    Well news update. I have decided to go with a 3" lift kit. Bigger toyo open country at2. With some rock sliders for the side. Plus a whole new set of armour. Any advice would be nice. I guess time to open my wallet and start shopping.

    Google "Bay Area Metal Fab"

    Jerry has daily deals on stuff and when the sliders come up they are usually discounted by $70.

    I purchased some LCA skids from Jerry and love them. Front IFS skids and trans skid from AllPro and they are great too.
