New Tacoma ..Need some advice and opinions

Hey All..

First time here..first post..

Im a proud owner of a brand new 08' Tacoma 4dr TRD Sport SR5 4x4..

I have been looking into some mild bolt on performance parts for the engine as well as looking into some suspension work to gain a small lift..here is what I am thinking of doing..constructive criticism is very welcome as I would like to get all aspects of what is out there..

I would like to get a set of King Shocks in the front..hoping to give it just a small lift in front to perhaps level the truck or give it a mild pre runner look..I would also like to keep the stock wheels and just add bigger meatier tires..

What are the pros and cons of this?? I was told that the King shock set up in front was really good..a friend of a friend had done it and said that the truck performed very well and it acheived the lift(if the shocks are adjusted the right way..)..

I am tryin to keep it somewhat cost effective..but sometimes that isnt possible as we all know..hahaha..I am not a totally wild off roader..but i do take trips to the desert to hike/shoot..and hit some trails..so the extra clearance and lift is what I am looking to accomplish along with some better shock upgrades..

Again..I wanna get some feedback and see what I can do..and what is available..

Thanks in advance..

Your questions(s)/concerns have been discussed thousands of times, I'll be the first to say *search* the forums. Theres also a noobie section up top.
Search and read. From what i've gathered, many are happy with King's.

See this thread.. https://www.yotatech.com/forums/f2/t...ptions-122513/

Do it right the first time.
