Hi everyone, I didn't know where to post this so I will try here.
I bought this truck over a year ago with 237k Miles on her. It is a 4x4 toyota t100 that is NOT stock, I got her rust free for 3800$. I have done quite a bit of maintenance on her so that the engine, transmission 4x4, cooling system are all running perfectly. Now that is done I want to address the handling.
Apparently this has a lift kit installed professionally (a supreme suspension brand) I believe 3" in front 2 in rear. Also a steering stabilizer as well installed with all new shocks and everything else that is supposed to be installed with a lift.
When I bought it, it had 33"s on and I changed them out to slightly less wide 32's. I don't recall the handling being good at all before I changed it out, if anything it might have gotten a bit better. But it is still scary driving this thing fast at all on the freeway. I like to go 55 in it and that seems fine to me but any faster and it seems dangerous. I see trucks lifted well beyond mine passing me at 80mph all the time and it makes me wonder what I can do so that my truck can handle at least the speed limit. Also the truck has spacers for a wider stance, bought the truck that way but I do happen to like it.
So, what can I look at to fix this? I am willing to invest maybe up to 1k$ so that is can be safe and I am willing to lower it slightly but I would prefer to have a mild lift. Please give me suggestions!
