I have a 2013 Toyota Trd Pro Sport. I need a lift. I want to overland, trail ride, and generally do all the things that my truck was made for. I know this is a loaded question but what lifts are good for this? OME ? Thanks All

Is it an actual Pro? If it is the Bilstein suspension it came with can be easily and fairly cheaply up graded. A small top plate spacer up front and new rear springs would do the trick. The 5160 remote resi rear shock can handle about 2" of lift. The OME Dakar pack can be adjusted several ways. You can remove the long overload spring and get around 2" of lift while maintains all the load capacity still. The fronts a basically the 6112 shock but with out the height adjustment. A .5" top plate spacer would get you to around 2.25-2.5" of lift. It would work great and if you did the work your self would be under $500 ish.

Locker? What color are the Bilstein's? The trd pro has been around since 2012 at least. They made other "pro" trucks before that. The lastest model started this year in the 3rd gen Taco. It has Fox suspension.

So if you need a full suspension set up. Go to http://www.headstrongoffroad.com/. Best prices and free shipping on all orders. Bang for the buck I would go with Bilstein 5100's with 885 or 887 coil spring up front. 5100 rear with dakar leafs. This is a great setup. The old man emu springs are good but I'm not a fan of their regular shocks. I do however love the BP51's.

I have a 2013 Tundra and went with a 2" ome lift with heavy springs in the front and Dakar leafs in the back.

Works great for me on rough roads and such. I've driven it out to Moab a couple times. Once solo and once loaded with dirt bikes and a trailer. I'm very happy with the ride and how it sits. The lift levelled the truck and rides nice both on highway and off.

I may make some changes to upper control arms etc. But I'm pretty happy the way it is.

I'm doing the Sonoran Steel kit. They have Radflo 2.5 rebuildable shocks and 2" lift. I have a 3rd gen, so my kit will be a little different.

No, I have Old Man Emu BP51's. They are super badass, but spendy. It was a tough choice between these and Kings.
