    I have a 2020 Tacoma Sr and I'm looking to put either a lift or leveling kit on it. Reading through the forum and I'm feeling overwhelmed about making a decision. Any recommendations for whether I should do Bilstein 5100's or a kit like the ready lift 3/2 sst? My taco is my daily driver but I'd like to have the capacity to do some 4x4 without issues.
    Any info helps.

    I did the ReadyLift 3/2 on my 2016. Looked great. Enjoyed it a lot. Ride stiffened up a bit but enjoyed what I got for the money I paid.

    If you can afford it always go with a suspension lift. Spacer and leveling kits make your truck ride
    harsh as f*ck. My Tacoma had a leveling kit on it when I bought it. Replaced with it some Fox shocks
    and now my truck rides smooth as silk.

    So you have the SR 4x4, I recommend taking it out on some trails and see where ya think improvement is needed. Then figure out what to get.
