    Hey Taco World,

    I drive an 06 Tacoma TRD Sport and I'm about to be the lucky recipient of a new Toyota frame, thanks to their extended warranty. While the frame is being replaced I'm also replacing the steering rack and both the front struts and rear shocks, since the labor is free and they're still original at 180,000 miles. (Yeah, time to go)

    I'm looking for recommendations for new struts and shocks. The factory ones have been fine for me, but I think I can beat Toyota's price going aftermarket. I think the truck rolls to much so I'd like something that is a little stiffer. (Some of this might be from the age of the shocks) I'd also like to lower the truck an inch or two if possible. Lastly, since they have to come out anyways, I'm also thinking about replacing the springs up front as well. Are there any reccommendations for a full front setup that would work for me?

    Any and all input is appreciated. Thanks a lot!
