    Looking to lift the front and rear of my 2017 dcsb tacoma. I have 275 70 17 tires with trd pro 4runner wheels that I'm going to run.

    My previous truck was a 2017 tundra. I had 6112s and icon remote reservoirs on it and overall loved the ride. But it was overkill for me. Im 80% pavement and 20% logging rds and cornfields for hunting.

    What would be the best 2-2.5" Lift for me?

    I've looked at the 5100/ ome 887s route but the talk of them sagging badly over time has me concerned.

    Looking to spend around 1000 total. Not including the needle bearing bushing kit which I already have ready to install.

    I have and actually bought it for my tundra originally... It did not meet the advertised 2.5" Lift at all. Long story short @Toytec Lifts screwed me on that one. So I refuse to use eibach again.

    Dobinson's is similar to the OME /5100 route but doesnt seem to sag as much.

    You can try that or recommend going back to the 6112/5160 route.

    Why arent you posting this in the suspension forum?

    Is this the kit you’re referring to?

    Yes, I've been reading great things about it. I saw a taco with this kit and it looked great.
