Being cheap with the lift.. Need some help.

[BobbyZee]

I have brand new Daystar 2.5/1.5 kit (KT09115BK) sitting in my garage.
I got that in october to do the lift along with FJ swap on my 2WD. But further research proved that with FJ spring+shocks+DS2.5/1.5 will give way more than 3" lift that I will have to do diff drop. So I am only going with FJ + 1" spacer.
So you can have lift kit. Name your price, PM me.

Alright guys, I am looking at getting a lift kit this Christmas and am trying to figure out which route to go. I am looking to spend about $500 (give or take) and would like to make sure I get the best deal for the money. I don't do much offroading yet but I just get my Runner and havent went because it is bone stock.

My 4Runner is a 03 Limited V8 4WD without XREAS.

Needs:
Capable of going off roading
Maintain the stock ride quality (maybe a little stiffer, I feel like my truck bounces a lot)
At least 2.5 inches all around
Would like to avoid spacers if at all possible

I am willing to buy the parts separate instead of buying a complete kit. I do not have any additional weight on the body so that isnt an issue.

Options I am looking into right now:
3" FJ Lift Kit W/Spacers & Rear ToyTec RCC2.0 Coils
Cornfed 3"x2" by Burtman Industries
OME Suspension although those options seem to be out of my price range

Im also trying to figure out some other mods I would like to have done during the Christmas season while I have a little extra cash. So what mods have you done that are a must?

I appreciate any opinions or assistance!!
