I just put a 3" Old Man Emu lift on my 2007 DC TRD. It rides better with the OME lift than stock.
It looks right now too.
As for not lifting without an SAS, I think anyone who spends the kind of money folks do to SAS a Tacoma and then beat the body to mush is an idiot, so there is my side of that coin.
These trucks are great family wheelers and do very well on the roads they are designed for. Mine is damn capable for such a big ass vehicle.
