I installed the Cheapo 3" lift kit $159. The kit is fine the thing that they forgot to mention is that if you do any off-road activities you also ned to purchase a new set of longer rear shocks. If you stick with the originals you lose about 2.5 inches of rear wheel drop. So I found some Rough country nitro 9000 shocks that give you the extra 2" you need. The kit (lift) was pretty straight forward to install and the directions were good. Overall on a 1-5 scale (5 being highest) I would rate it a 4. It loses a point for the omission. I am quite higher now and the ride is essentially the same. I'm using TRD 16" wheels with BFG all terrain 265's I may go to 285's on a spare set of wheels. WHERE'S THE MUD??? WHERE'S THE MUD???

I had installed the Skyjacker 3 inch platinum off road suspension ,the shocks are adjustable ,and the suspension is well worth the price handles incredible off and on road ,also installed the Borla Dual exhaust system and the TRD cold air intake system ,very noticable fuel economy and power gains noticed couldnt be happier , Black Cherry .... will prob put 285 BFG radial all terrain tires next...

I put a 3" Revtek leveling kit on my Trail Teams Edition and love it. Revtek uses a split spacer design and their customer service is great. With the lift I fit Toyo Mud Terrains 285/75/16's with no cutting or rubbing. Couldn't be happier with the lift.
