    Installed Billies on all 4 corners. Front at 1.75". I have the 4 leaf TSB packs on the rear. Love the look and drive feel of the 5100's. Very smooth and solid. Also installed the SickSpeed Ole Skool Shifter Ball.

    Nice Mr. Horsepower mats! I have a Sickspeed ball as well, but mine is the gray rally stripe. The old skool one looks good.

    I thought the Mr. Horsepower Mats were a true statement for the 2.7 :D.

    Nice truck! Love the color. Being oldschool as I am, I've never liked these new fangled "dick head" shift knobs. I have the sickspeed ball in white. It reminds me of the old Hurst shifters :D

    Yep. This is the 4th vehicle into which I placed a classic ball Hurst type shifter.

    Hi nice truck, I own a pyrite myself. What noticeable difference did you experience with the 5100's in regards to ride quality. I have the trd off road package and my ride is a little rough, I guess it's because of a stiffer suspension. Did the ride get less rigid with the new bilsteins?

    Also, I like the tires you have - what are they?

    Ride is smoother. Perhaps the best way to describe it is tight. Small imperfections in the road are less noticeable.

    I have the TSB springs installed in my truck too. You will not regret getting it done methinks.
