    Hi Guys,

    My Front suspension is very bouncy these days, I have 75k on both the front and rear, Im banking that I need to do some replacing.

    Im rocking a 2009 prerunner, Sr5, TRD off road with 5100s. I do wheeling in GA 2-3 times a year and drive over very nasty streets here in new orleans.

    My question. Should I bite the bullet and install both front and rear suspension or should I replace the front now and wait for the rears to go out.

    Im looking at whole kits online... http://toyteclifts.3dcartstores.com...able-5100-front-and-rear-5100-shock_p_31.html

    Just the front suspension can be had for 100 less http://toyteclifts.3dcartstores.com/Front-height-Adjustable-5100-Bilstein-Shocks_p_21.html

    The price looks decent if I go this route will I need to order anything else or should I expect the dealership / auto shop to have bushings bolts and things like that?

    Thanks!

    It sounds like your are contemplatiing a lift? That's different than replacing something for "squishy-ness". Perpaps a bit more specifics on what you want to end up with will provide more replies.

    There are literally dozens of threads for the "lift-it" route that you can search. Once you have found a package/idea you like, and a supplier, work with them to tailor the final stuff to suit you!

    Good luck.
