It is on the stock springs. I would like to upgrade to something a little bit more substantial. I finally found a summer job and I start this Wednesday. My plan is to save for the majority of the summer and then likely buy at the end of the summer. I am looking for about 2.5-3 inches of lift. I like the leveled look. we bought my car with the Bilstein 5100's already installed, is there any way I can figure out how high it is riding? (how many inches of lift it has) I like the brand Toytec, Dobinsons, fox would be sweet, but its just too much for me and I do not run that extreme of trails or anything. I would love to hear some suggestions from all of you and some pros and cons oof different companies, and lifts. Thank you guys! I love this forum

Brand preference is usually determined by mix of personal preference, budget, and whatever is close to you for support when you need them. You can literally browse hundreds of threads here and get all sorts of feedback. A high end suspension seems overkill for a daily driver with mild off-roading such as your case. You already have the 5100 which is decent upgrade and still quiet and reliable.
Lift spacers are cheap and simple but could worsen the ride performance... A decent set of coils are not that expensive but need more work to install especially up front. Plenty of options around such as Icon, dobinsons, metal tech, eibach...etc.
I would save your hard earned cash for other mods or a real suspension upgrade (Fox, KING, Radflo, or any proper 2.5 shock) later on if you need it
