Default 2005 2.3l double cab xl

Hi, I am gong to pick up the above model next week down here and would like to modify it.

I would like to keep it simple but give it a more prerunner/baja look.

Can I lift the suspension on this model? If so which kit is recomended?

What are the biggest tires I can fit on the stock rims?

Any body parts that fit to make it look more baja?

This is just cosmetic I will not be truly off roading just dirt roads and speed bumps.

Thanks in advance

Matt

you need to do a spindle lift.

google doestech spindles. then order a kit for your truck. not the edge kit. the xl or xlt kit.

maybe find a prerunner bumper, that would make it look great, with some off road lights on it.

----------

and the biggest tire you can get on stock rims would be a 32x11.50R15
