    Hola forum,
    I don't mean to add another lift post but I have been doing a lot of research and still can't figure out which way to go. I will share what I am looking for and if you have this on your truck let me know how it's working for you and what you spent on it.

    I have a 2015 TRD Sport. I live in Chicago where there are a shit load of potholes and speed bumps. I camp a few times a year where I go off the main road and go rustic. Nothing too extreme but I would not take a car.

    There have been times where I have gone over a speed bump (at crawl speed) and hear it scratching below. I have also hit pot holes and I can hear and feel the thud.

    This is what I want.
    -3 inch lift that will not effect the good handling my truck already has.
    -better shock/spring absorbing for the rough roads
    -I don't want death rattle or any other swaying after the lift.
    -I do plan on getting modest, bigger tires but nothing that will give me real shitty gas mileage and noise. Nothing that my parents need a latter to get into.
    -no spacers!
    -I am willing to spend money.

    What do you all think?

    Thanks

    The speed bump noise is your front mud flaps, trim them. They're too long.


    Any lift will change your ride. Make sure you're okay with that, you won't find a lift that makes your truck ride exactly how it does now but 3" taller.

    Lift and tires will negatively impact MPG. I lost 20% of my economy, for example.
