    Does anyone have a picture of a 2nd generation Tacoma with a body lift anywhere from 1"-3"? I am wanting to lift my truck, but not too much. I have a long bed 2009 Tacoma TRD with a 4x4 drive train.

    I plan on getting a new set of 265/70/R17 AT/s and keeping the stock rims, so I want to make sure it doesn't look like a tall person wearing tiny shoes...

    Also wanted everyone who has been helping me find information and parts on my truck know that I am very thankful and hope to return the favor to someone else when I can.

    Thank you!

    IMG_1251.jpg Billstein 5100 all around. Front set at 2.5 and rear with 2 in add a leaf. BFG ko2 265/70r17. I'd steer away from body lifts if possible and go with a suspension lift, just my $0.02

    What did you use to lift the front and rear? Blocks or what? If you have the specific product, I’d like to just replicate your lift setup. Your truck is really beautiful.

    Same crap everyone else got
    Don't do a body lift unless it's just a 1in and you need to to help clear much larger tires in combo with a suspension lift. Have you ever seen a jeep that's frame was pretty low and it's body was high and you could see straight through to the other side between the two but it at least had bigger tires....looks like garbage. IMHO
    front: 5100 bilstein shocks set at zero, 885 old man emu springs.
    Rear:5100 bilstein rears, Deaver 1.5-2in add a leaf
    wheels: 17x8 fn fx pro's
    tire: 265 70 R17 Goodyear Duratracs


    Same tires and wheels with no lift at all:
