Default Leveling Kits?

I have an 03 Tundra and I need to lift the front end up. I admittedly have no idea what I am doing as far as mechanics go. I was looking into aluminum spacers. Anyone ever tried them before? I am not even sure if that is the proper way to do the job. I want to do the job right so I was just looking for my best options. Any advice, concerns, or opinions are greatly appreciated. Thanks!

There are a couple different ways to do it. Check out WheelersOffroad, they have a few kits plus the techs are really helpful.

May be cheaper and easier to do is lower the rear with a shackle kit. Ground Force makes good products also

First off you need to decide how much lift you need.
Are you just trying to "level" it or do you want a lift to accomodate bigger tires?
Is your vehicle a 4X4?

The most important question is: what is your budget?

Everyone is going to have an opinion on what works but it is best to start with a budget and find something that is in your price range.
Many spacer lifts require the use of a spring compressor (which is tricky).

Many people have also used spacers from extremetrucktoys - Specializing in lift kits

Some really nice looking/inexpensive ones are located on eb@y (item#180173043264)

if you are on a budget, i would go with toytec. if your budget is bigger, then get some coilovers or bilstien adjustables. be sure to get a diff. drop if its a 4x4.
