I want more lift!!! HELP

I have a 1996 2WD Toyota 4Runner with a 2.5 inch Daystar lift kit. I wanted to add more lift, looking at 3 to 3.5 inch total lift, but I am having difficulty finding and deciding what to add on. Can anyone with expert intelligence, even experience in this manner, help me out. I would appreciate it, thanks!!!

I would gte a 1" body lift from 4Crawler.com

That would let you get 1-2 more inches of tire.

If you already have the daystar, I think for your purposes, a Body Lift would probably be the way to go, I would go with just a 1 inch, and really maybe no bigger than a 2" but thats totally up to you.

well I have heard or bilsteins new shocks that replace the front ones in the coilover.... 5100's i think, they are adjustable up to 2.5" of lift, and available for toyotas as well as other trucks. throw in those and some lc front coils for your rear and your looking at up to 4 inches total of lift ( dont forget to get new rear shocks and some other junk like brake lines and drop bracket for panhard.

the higher you go the more things you have to replace with longer items. so there are certain points like per say around 2.5 inches where you can get by fairly stock.... but after that you run into problems with stock brake lines your shifters if you do a body lift etc....

2.5 inch lift on 2wd springs is gonna be about 1.5 inchs of lift compared to a 4wd, so id check into some springs and shocks to get 2.5 to 3 inchs. and add a 1" body on top of it.
