Lift Kit Questions ?

I have a 2012 Toyota Tacoma XSP, its a nice truck but it sits way to low and dosent really make since to have the running boards if the truck doesnt sit higher off the ground. I am fairly new to upgrades and other mechanical work so im looking for something that isnt too expensive yet simple to install. A buddy of mine told me about Ready Lift Kits that will raise truck from around 1 3/4 inch to about 2 inchs. If anyone has any thoughts or ideas on how to tackle this dillema please let me know. Thanks.

 

Blocks and spacers are the easiest and cheapest way to level your truck, and gain a few inches. Its not a lot. but that level kit with little bigger tires helps.
