    Did a 3" leveling kit
    What is the cheapest and best way to lift the rear up from 4-6"of a 09 Tacoma? What can I use?

    Is there already a lift on the truck? Or stock? Also, what's your budget?

    "Cheapest" and "best" are two totally different things. Lift blocks are a good solution if you're lifting your truck just for looks.

    Why are you only trying to lift the rear?

    Find out what kind of lift already on it. You may have to take off and change to a 6in lift.

    4"-6" blocks are going to cause axle wrap like no other. 10/10 would not recommend.

    Agreed. But he said cheapest. That's the cheapest solution I could come up with.

    Best "cheap" bet would be a combo of like a 2" AAL and 2" block. Just never take it offroad yanno :rofl:

    Dakars and all pro leaf springs should get you real close to that 4" mark. If you come up a little short, a 1" block wouldn't hurt anything.
