    I just purchased a new 2012 tacoma TRD package 4door with the shorty bed. Love truck want a little bit of lift nothing crazy i hate spacer lifts. So i researched the Bilstein 5100's they sound really good an i dont want to adjust the shocks to there max setting any one have any pics of one adjusted to the first/second setting ? Looking to just mildly lift the truck i dont really offroad just like the look and dont want to hurt the ride. Any suggestions or pics would be great. new to the forum here thanks.





    The spacer lifts i hate i had 2000 tundra used a 3in toytec few months later wheelbearings, tierods,ball joints all had to be replaced, plus they put alot stress on things.

    There is a thread in the 2nd gen forum about 2012 and newer lifted trucks with pics. Should be able to find what your looking for there.

    If you just want to lift a little bit or level the truck out then the 5100's will work perfectly. If you are wanting to go higher then 2.5"s then I would look at a full suspension lift but its not going to be cheap. Check out toyteclifts.com for some ideas on kits and pricing. ;)
