    So I need to redo my front suspension, but I don't really know what parts to get/where to get it. Any suggestions? I think all I need is springs and shocks. I have a 1995 2.4l Tacoma. (I love it)
    Also, I want more power to the engine. Are there any inexpensive modifications I can make?

    True. The front suspension is really bad though. One of the bolts that hold the shock to the lower control arm has stripped, so I needed a new lower control arm.(Bought it off eBay) So I've actually been riding with no functional shock. Which, it rides like crap. So I thought might as well do the front suspension. But I don't really know what springs and shocks to get. I didn't really feel that the rear suspension was bad.

    Got to an auto parts store or dealership and get stock replacements. There is very little aftermarket for the 5lug first gen tacomas.

    Your stuck with the engine as well unless you want forced induction..
