    glad to be apart of this great site and tundra family. I'd like to lift my truck and put bigger tires on there but not sure on good quality product to go with. Thanks

    Calibrated Power 5 Tune pack, Allison 1000 tune, PPE deep trans pan, Cold/Hot CAC pipes, Banks CAI, PCV reroute, resonator delete, S&B 62 gal fuel tank, B&W GN hitch
    Looking at the same thing.

    So far my research is:

    Bilstein 5100 for a cheap way to lift.

    Bilstein 6112 for an awesome upgrade for reasonable amount of money

    Toytec, King, fox etc for a really good midtravel suspension.

    you can run 35"s too.
    I run 33"s with just a leveling kit, aftermarket wheels and stock TRD suspension.
