Coil-over lifts for tacoma??

I just bought a 04 Tacoma and am interested in putting the 2.5" coil-over lift on it. Does anyone recommend a particular brand. All-pro Off road, Camburg, Fab-tech, King??? What about for the rear?

why can you only lift the tacomas 2.5" with this system? What limits the lift?

you can only go so high before you componets wont line up, thats when you get into the 3inch plus. many people do mild lift 2-3 inchs and then a 1 to 2 inch body lift after that. you will probably be told to search because this subject is covered in detail in many threads. how big of tires are you planning on running?

Talking

the donahoes can be expensive. for a little bit cheaper alternative (with a great ride still) check out the sway-a-way (SAW) coilovers.
