    I have an 06 tacoma 4x4, im planning on lifting it 3 inches. What kind of lift do you think is better, the on top of coil spacer, or the incide coil spacer? Also if i have 4 or 5 people in my truck it tends to bottom out on bumps, would an add-a-leaf lift in the rear fix this?

    An entire coilover+leaf pack set up is the best.

    Spacers are the cheapest lifts you can get.

    For your bottoming out issue, If you are under the 36,000 mile mark, the dealer should replace the springs with a new leaf pack. Many people have had this issue. :)
