    I have a 2019 OR. Extended cab, long bed.
    My suspension has gotten really bad and I need to replace it, I’m looking to give it a lift (about 2”) while I’m at it. I can’t afford to put 2k into it, and am just looking for something simple and around a grand. Don’t do very much off roading any more now that I’m living in a city.

    Options?

    $1000 for parts you’re going to install yourself or $1000 for parts/labor at a shop?

    what does it mean, Your suspension has gotten really bad"????
    The truck is a 2019 & you stated you dont do a whole lot of off-roading, so what exactly is going on???
    May just be riding like absolute dog-shit cuz your tires are old...?
    You make it sound like your suspension is completely shot but cant see how thats possible in a 19 & you dont give any specifics...
    So Im scratching my head...

    $1000 for parts. And yes, I was living in New Mexico and doing a lot of off roading with it, also did a few months of road tripping. I have over 100k miles on it with original suspension parts.

    Appreciate the curiosity for the situation, but I’m just looking for suggestions here to get things going. Anyone have an idea? Rancho? Rough country?

    And then add an icon add a leaf and a carrier bearing drop if lifting. Plus new tophats for the front shocks, and decide if you want to use the stock coils w the clips in front or get and old man emu front spring set.
