    so even on the 2nd generation tacomas, its still not a good idea to stack the revtech with the billies

    I lost track thousands of dollars ago.
    So i was looking at your Mod's and seen this (coming soon: Bilstein 5100 adjustable shocks all the way around with a 1.5'' block lift in the rear) I would do an add a leaf instead it's about the same price and it's way better you will add articulation to the rear suspension with an AAL not just lift the truck higher.

    Correct, the "no stacking lifts" rule is universal.

    Then he needs a rim with 4.5" backspacing or less or 1.25" spidertrax spacers. The Spacers are $100.

    We all made mistakes before TW. I would do and ditch the block your ride will be much better. I think there only like $79.00 form Toytec.
