    Hi folks, can everyone give me some name brands of products I could by to raise my front up 2". Have kids, mortgage, and life to deal with so cant go all out! Lol just would like some part #'s or a place to go and a reference too. I can do the work myself. Just an FYI, I do pull a camper from time to time.

    Plenty of options, a lot of budget friendly ones as well. Spacer kits are going to be the cheapest. You'll hear, NOOO, stay away, but everyone running them like them and never has problems. I was going that route, but the correct route and better ride, and even spacer group normally agrees is new coilovers. Toytec and Boss 4x4s has an Eibach coilover that can give you up to 3" up front. They also have the Boss setup that's adjustable but the price is almost double. A lot of people go with the Bilstein 5100 adjustable shocks. They have 3 settings, the highest one being 2.28"

    The Bilstein 6112s are really good but a little pricier but many go with that if off-roading is a factor. A lot of people will also tell you to probably put some air bags in the rear to help with towing and keep the truck level.

    Have fun looking. the more you look the more times you'll change your mind!

    With longevity, and towing in mind, finding a quality option will save you money in the long run. A nice OEM replacement from King and an UCA Replacement will last you the lifetime of the truck. whats great is the king shocks provide the ability to be rebuilt over time with added ability to be tuned to your liking. Thats if OEM spec is too soft/hard in the valving to your liking. Below is our simple kit that we offer which gives just that.

    Everyone on here HATES “spacer lifts”- mine is temporary- and gets me level- without much $$$ & time- don’t notice much difference in ride plus this is my first new truck at 46- not off-road for a while except hunting- dirt roads- once I get $$$$ for what I want down the road- then truck will be “ broke- in” and ready to off- road

    JM2C- good luck with your tundra :cheers:

    Good idea for those who retained their stock coilovers while removing aftermarket ones for a rebuild.
