new to me 99 tacoma

Just got a 99 tacoma sr5 3.4l v6 and 5 spd manual. Its pretty basic and sitting low right now. Have been researching lift options but unsure of the best route.

looking to run 33" tires MAX probably stick with 31"s for a while and its going to be a dd/weekend warrior. So what are my best lift options so far I am liking the wab fab kits that net 3". looking at the one that has new front springs instead of spacers.

any thoughts thanks!

places to start for 3" lifts are wab fab, toytec, and sonoran steel.

I'm saving up for the SS 1.2 myself. Spacers destoy the ride and you'll feel every bump in the road, so go w/ new coils for sure! And make sure you install a $20 diff drop right off the bat (whatever lift you go with).

I had sway-a-way coilovers, 1.5" add-a-leafs, and 2.5" (downey?) shackles for about 4" of lift. (and a diff drop). it was a really nice setup, I would go with something similar if I did it again.
