    Hey guys, just had a quick question for you all. My truck is still stock ride height I want to put 3” block in the back and 2” spacer in the front can the shocks handle 3” in the back or do I need to purchase new shocks ones? Just out of curiosity to see what the Tacoma shocks are rated for.

    Long story short, no. You'll need new rear shocks, stockers are short.

    What are you lifting for? Why not a proper suspension lift?

    You're.gonna end up with noticeable rake if you do 3 in the back and only 2 up front. Also blocks and spacers.arent really the way to go around here. You can lift your truck with an add a leaf and some Bilstein 5100s, with or without new coils, for not much more money. Anytime you lift a vehicle you should upgrade to shocks

    Did you plastidip or vinyl wrap the roof? Any other pics?

    I'm going to have to do this soon as mine is fading badly.

    There's ways to re-clear it, too, just it looks janky if you look too closely at it. For a roof it'd be fine.

    After having zero inspiring ideas for my own paint I finally decided I was just gonna go full stupid since the truck has become a toy and get the 80s/90s paper cup pattern done on it. I'll have the whole thing painted white and get a vinyl overlay of this...
