ok, so how much do SAW's cost?? any problems with them?? and how much lift will they give me?

what about ATS arms?? are those needed?? whats the benefit?? and cost?

How much lift can you have, if any, on an 01 tacoma and keep the skid plates??

whats the best buildup to get about 2.5-3" lift on a 01 Tacoma and what will it run?

 

SAW are expensive, some problems, some lift

ATS could be needed, some benefits, expensive

Skidplate might work

Old Man Emu will give you the lift you want for $600 it is the cheepest and best way to retain factory ride after a lift. Skid plate will definently work

 

Lol hyper I love you response.

 

You didn't mention if you're 4x4 or not.
SAWs are adjustable, and will lift up to 3" (2.5" recommended w/4x4)

The ATS arms are nice, will give you more droop. I think there is a group buy on Total chaos uniball arms on ttora. But those are $150-200 more.
Do a search for the rest, it all depends on what you're gonna use it for. I like the SAWs for speedy desert trails, and the ATS for the added droop on slower, crawling trails
