    I'm looking for a 2-3" lift kit for my toco I recently purchased. I'm not really sure which way to go all of the different ways to lift a truck is a bit confusing to me. I am planning on doing some offroading so does anyone have any suggestions of which kind of kit I should get and what tires to put on it also? Trying to keep it on a resonable budget. Thanks

    If you haven't already done so, OP, recommend you spend some time in the Suspension and Wheels & Tires forums. Specific threads interest include the Tacoma Lift FAQ/Guide, Suspension Lift Info, and Tires*Tires*Tires*Tires stickies.)

    FWIW, I'm very happy with the Wheeler's 5-leaf, OME 881, and Bilstein 5100 combo I'm running. It's paired with BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A KO tires. IIRC, total cost of the lift was ~$1K and tires were ~$800.
