    hey guys new to the site and just bought my first tundra. I was looking into getting a 4 to 6 inch lift. Just been reading online and mix reviews on everything. Wondering what ppl like and what tire and wheels you running?

    Thanks in advance

    Most will recommend going straight to a true adjustable coil-over set-up, but lifting can be done in many ways.

    Some factors to consider:
    Budget
    Desired Ride
    Off-road/On-road requirements
    Length of ownership/servicing

    Is there any reason in particular you want a drop bracket lift? They certainly have their place and can be durable but personally I'd prefer my lift come from coilovers, UCAs, and a leaf pack. I wouldn't wanna cut a chunk of my crossmember or frame out.

    Slow and steady and just the right amount of lube.
