Thanks. I will have a look at the kit. The truck looks great with the lift. I'm guessing I will need running boards if I lift it?

Yeah I really like the looks and the ride. Its not stiff at all, rides like factory.
As for the running boards that would be up to you...mine came with them so I left them on for the wife, she's 5'4. I'm 6'1 and can still get in it and out of it without the running boards.

Put a 3" rough country lift kit in. I think for everyday use, it is enough. Took a lot for the toyota dealers to align it up. After 100ks gets feeling a little tipsy. But sure looks nice compared to those who do not have one.

Toyota did not align mine Merchants did in 20 minutes it was done and aligned perfectly.
As for the tipsy you speak of the truck has no tippyness what-so-ever with the 6" lift. Specially with the wheelbase being increased with offset rims. As for the 100K I don't for see it to be any more of a problem...Well see after I put on 95K more since mine only has a litle over 5K on it.
The 6" is up to the owner and what he decides he likes/wants to do what he needs it to do. I'm personally loving it! Wouldn't even throw my $$$ away on a 3" kit.
