pic of my lift bilsteins 5100 all around with aal in back

im a new member i juss install my bilsteins 5100 all around with aal in the rear pics of my rims coming soom

 

Dude, I think your shocks are on up-side down

 

i think so too?

 

Thats how bilsteins are on the 1rst gens

 

i had thought the same thing...........but thats the correct way to mount them on first gens!! and i feel like a dumbass..........but i installed mine upside down back when i did mine. i blame it on beer and pain killers!! but truth be told...at the time...i didnt realize that they needed to be boot down on the install.

yep....gonna swap mine around and see if there is a difference in ride quality.........although it isnt going to hurt anything as is.

 

yea i saw some pics of 2nd gen there the other way around, when i was installing them i was 50 50 on wut to do lol thank god i did it right, i looked at the bilsein emblem and made sure they were up right

 

heres my truck with my new wheels i juss put on pro comps 16x8 265-75-16 m/t

 

im smoking out my taillights tomorrow ill have pics later

 

that looks really sexy, +1000

 

i only had this truck for like 6 months i love it, i really want to take it offroading , but theres nowhere in houston that i know off, when i say offroading i dont mean aggresive offroading i only have 4x2

 

i have a question , i blacked out my tailights but what do u guys think about the headlights ??? should i black it out too or leave them alone???? not sure

 

i'd leave the fronts alone...............takes away too much visibility im pretty sure. they do,however,have some "black" headlights on ebay.........kinda the same way the black head light mod is done on the 2nd gen tacomas. they look great.

 

i was kinda leaning towards murdering my truck i guess i really gotta think bout it

 

check these from ebay................pretty close dude..................

wow those are nice , well i could do that my self, i got this special spray paint to smoke out my headlights , the more i spray the darker they get , thats what i used for my taillights i did like 6 coats for the tailights, for the headlights ill juss do 2 coats

 

Hi there,your truck looks pretty sharp with that lifting,i'm thinking on getting the same kit for mine (03 4x4 3 inchs/spacers/stiff and not happy about it)and would like to know how do you feel the ride on and off road,is it smooth,does it feels safe, what's your opinion about your billys,what i'm planning on to do is to get rid of the spacers and install a set of billys at 2.5 and somehow level the rear,at the beggining i was planning to get a set of fox coilover shocks but they are too price and that's why i'm considering a cheaper option,i'm looking forward to improve the ride on mine,I'll appreciate any info you can provide me according to your experience,Thank you!!
