Concerns with 3inch lift

Iam new to the toyota lifting. for starters i own a 99 taco reg cab, 4x4 with no mods my first question is that i was lookn at a top out spacer on the front strut through all pro offroad. com that will give 2inch lift, could i add a 1 inch spacer that goes between the top plate and spring and be ok or will this be extreme on the balls joints and the cv's????????????

Most folks here run 2 1/2" or 3" without any problems. Yes it will have an effect on cv angles. Most will purchase a front diff drop kit.

Cornfed Suspension makes spacer lifts for Tacoma's, and from what i've researched, and what i've seen, they are top quality. Not to mention, it is a side business of a fellow member of TTORA (Tacoma Territory Off Road Association). They have some of the best support and reps available.

Check out their total kits, front and back suspension setups for reasonable prices.
