    Gentleman….let me preface this by saying, I’ve searched and read, but I’m overwhelmed and quite frankly don’t have the knowledge to know one from another…..

    I recently sold my 2008 crewmax sr5 for a 2018 with TSS package. I understand that it’s cosmetic. But I like the look since it’s black. And I’m not ashamed to say my truck is a pavement princess. It’s my daily driver to and from work and around town, I occasionally tow a travel trailer or boat.

    With that said, at 80k miles, it needs new suspension components. What would you suggest that will improve road ride quality? Also, i figure it’s a good time to level it out. I understand a 2” front lift is correct?
    Im also wondering if it be a good idea, keeping the stock 20” rims, to give it a 2” lift all around(4” in front for the level)? Would this look ok?
    TIA guys. Y’all know more than me!

    Alot of them
    Many use the Bilstein 5100's in the front to level it out.

    3/1 should be about level. At 3 inches in the front, you'll probably be wanting new UCA's, too.
