    Recommendations for a lift kit?
    I have a 2020 Tacoma TRD offroad.
    Im planning on putting a bed rack and tent on here really soon and running tires around 33in.

    I have heard the Eibach pro kit one with aal in the rear is a good option I just want more opinions.
    Also not trying to do anything crazy off road or expensive!
    Thanks again in advanced!

    There’s a little more work to run 33s than put on lift and tires. I recommend really deciding on how you’re gonna use the truck and then determine how much lift you want and go from there researching different lift kits in the budget you decide on.

    Usually about 2.5 “ most guys will recommend ucas also to help with alignment and tire fitment along with a cmc. If you don’t want to deal with that I’d stick around 2” and 265 or 275 tire.

    Howdy,

    best bang for buck setup IMO is the Bilstein 6112/5160. If you plan to just lift the vehicle purely for aesthetics and don't plan to run your vehicle hard, I'd look into the bilsteins 5100's as they will be a slight upgrade compared to your stock shocks.

    Last option is a spacer lift which is the cheapest route. I know tacomaworld despises these lift but they are honestly not that bad if you just plan on using your vehicle for the road and very little off road use.

    Call the folks @HeadStrong Off-Road they answer your questions.
    Just make sure you buy your lift from them. :fistbump:

    I have a 2021 and just got done with DIY'ing my lift,

    Eibach 2.0 coilovers
    (came with sway bar drop down)​
    JBA UCA's
    (watch wheel backspacing for larger tires)​
    Eibach Pro Truck Sport rear shocks
    Headstrong 1.5" AAL

    I went with coilovers for the fine-tune and adjustability without having to tear anything apart. I also installed the ECGS bushing just because I figured why not while I had everything tore apart. It's only been a week although I'm happy thus far.
