Just keep in my op, that most reputable shops only install parts they sale, look into a leveling kit for your truck, being its a 2wd you dont wheel it, its cheap to level and you may be able to stuff 33s and get the look you like

Swat customs in fremont said this kit https://bilsteinlifts.com/shop/05-and-up-tacoma/toytec-boss-suspension-system-2005-2013-toyota-tacoma/#!prettyPhoto can be installed for 470 incl alignment. Ive read up on leveling kits and i dont think thats what i want. Im leaning towards the boss kit with the boss hd springs and uca's, which will probably ramp the install price up a bit more. Still deciding...

Look into the ICON stage 1 kit. I promise you'll be extremely happy with it. The Toytec kit is nice, but ICON is a better choice.

I agree. I'm running the icon coilovers with the pro mop 6" kit. Rides like stock or better.

Maybe, those trucks went all over the place. The black and gold one is in Russia, the black and blue one is in one of the Dakotas as a welding truck and the grey one is in Arizona.

Oh and my truck won't see mud but my Jeep will

thanks for any input.

Here's my Bronco the day I bought it. All stock on 31's way behind on maintenance.

And here she is now. 6" rough country lift with dual steering stabilizers, 35" mud tires, all new fluids, full tune up, tie rod flip, sway bar flip, push bumper, & more!

I did the lift kit install myself, definitely not something for the average mechanic. I'm from Sacramento so I don't know of any shops down there unfortunately. I love my rough country kit, it wasn't insanely expensive and if good quality with lifetime warranty on everything.

nice man! unfortunately my tacoma probably wont see dirt lol its what the 4 wheel drive community deem, mall crawlers! haha

and its not cheap either, almost 7k for lift , wheels/tires, install...which is pretty pricey in my opinion.

Yeah that's a bit much. My lift kit was about $1,000, picked up the tires/wheels for $650 used with tons of life left, push bumper $50 from pick n pull and about $200 for the full tune up and change all fluids. Spent about $300 putting an entirely new A/C system in the Brocno all new hoses, pump etc, and it was $500 for the bronco itself, so I probably have about $3,000 total investment. We take the mighty Bronco everywhere!

It is fun, most of the time we're by ourselves, so we gotta play it a little safe, especially since I don't have a winch yet, but still lots of fun
