lift kits

hey folks,

i just wanted to ask about lift kits for stock tacos,mine is a 4x4 and its a 2013 and im seeking information on how much lift i need to run some 30's maybe 31's,not TOO big i gotta climb up or add steps,lol.i know nothing about lifting a truck.what kinds of kits are available,are they expensive and which kind of kit is better for your truck in the long run.i intend on keeping mine for a long time so i dont want anything that will cause premature wearing or damage but i am working with a limited budget so i need to save money at every turn,lol...

and ive used the site before so let me say thanks in advance to all you wonderful taco folks !

ps-i have the 4.0 6cyl w/auto trans

 

I have a 2005 Dbl cab 4.0 auto
We run a rough country 3” suspension lift, and run 265/75/16.
I am 6’ tall and I can swing legs in fine without steps

 

For those size tires you don't need any lift

 

That’s stock I know 285/75/16. Coming soon

 

Most likely the tires you're runnig now are 30's. Pretty sure even if you went with 31's they'd fit with your stock suspension. Might snag a front mud flap

265/70/16 are 30.6" in height
265/75/16 are 31.64 in height
