    I am looking to upgrade my suspension on my ‘09 TRD Sport DBL Cab and need some help. I want to do a 3” lift w/ 33’s in the end. Just got bilstein 5100 0-1” rear shocks but then I’m just overwhelmed. Looking to stay under $1,000 since it does have 173k miles on it. Do I return those shocks for longer travel or will the work with 1.5” add a leafs? Looking at Rough Country N3 coilovers. Any input is greatly appreciated!

    i second this.


    Also stay away from rough country. It’ll only lead to disappointment and buying the ones you should of bought in the first place.
