I've been doing as much research as I could regarding lift options. Here is my setup: 2006 Dbl Cab long bed, SR5. It has the 245 tires that came stock.
My off-roading consists mainly of driving on soft sand when I go surf fishing. The truck sees an occasional fire road, but nothing that really beats up the suspension.
I wanted to add a slight lift to give the truck a more aggressive look and stance. The double cab with the 245's looks a little weak to me. I will replace the stock 245's with 265's, as I believe they will fit the stock wheels.
After doing the research on this forum, it looks like a good option for me would be to put bilstein 5100's on each wheel, and use an add-a-leaf to raise the rear. I am not handy at all, and would have to have the work done professionally.
I am looking for opinions on whether this is a good setup for my situation. If there would be a better solution, I would be glad to hear that as well. If there is anything else I need other than the shocks and AAL, please let me know. I don't want to mess around with the ride and handling too much. Thank you for all your help.
