3.5"/3.0" lift for 03 yota for under $500

i've been doing some research & have come up with a cheap way to lift my '03 tacoma 4wd ext cab for under $500....3.5" in the front, 3.0" in the rear, it should allow me to run 285/75-16's which are = to @ 33" x 11.0" tires.... here's the list of goodies:

performance prod. 1" lift prog. rate coil springs $168 shiped @ performanceparts4trucks.com
pro-comp 2.5" coil spring spacers $79.95 p/n 64301@ summit racing
skyjacker 3" add-a-leaf kit $74.95 p/n rtc20 @ summit racing
pro-comp es3000 front struts $54.95 ea. p/n 618053 @ summit racing
pro-comp es3000 rear shocks $32.95 ea. p/n 326006 @ summit racing

summit is running a deal buy 3 procomp es3000 shocks get the 4th for free!

although you can get almost the same thing from rough country suspension (2.5" front & 2.5" rear) for @ $369+ shipping, but you don't get new coil springs, & it uses shackles to lift the rear instead of add-a-leafs
i need the extra lift in the front to compensate for the grille guard that i want to put on plus i haven't ever cared for lifted or lowered shackles, the allow too much sway in the suspension

That is lookink like a pretty good deal - now find me one for an 89 Mazda. ... <img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" title="Smile" /><!-- s:) -->

well upon further review, the deal on the shocks were for es3000 or es9000, the struts for the front of the yota are es6000's, so the buy 3 get the 4th free didn't apply, but i ended up being 420.75 shipped for what i listed, plus i went ahead &amp; got some braided brake lines for it too.....

as for lifting a mazda i think you can get a set of control arms or coil over shocks for the front to lift it, &amp; a add a leaf kit for the rear, or if you have a few spare leafs from a mazda spring pack, you can take those &amp; make a new spring pack that will lift the rear @ 3" or so by adding two leafs.....

you can get a body lift here for it

you can also get fiberglass fenders that are flared 3" &amp; have a 3" increased wheel well from glassworks unlimited..here's a link



these could be used as well on a lowered truck if you can't find
4wd fenders to be able to tuck!!
