Springs for 5100s

I know the Eibach springs are preferred/run the most but can you run any other spring? Say springs off some 2.5 C/Os? I found springs on Race Dezert but they're not Eibach and I'm curious if I can run them. Also in the Read Before Lifting, it said it's not recommended to run aftermarket springs. Is that due to UCAs?

 

Bump for East Coast lunch crowd!

 

You can use ome 885 (since your a double cab). I just installed some this past weekend. I used 5100's set @ Zero lift and the ome 885 springs for my double cab. Got 3" using no top spacer. I was worried about ride quality. I can say the ride is great. Let me know if you have any other questions about em. Here is link to a previous post

Appreciate it but I'm also wondering about other springs like some King springs either from 2.0 or 2.5. Can't swing the OMEs just yet; actually prob a while , would rather get UCAs but if I can use these springs since they're substantially cheaper...

 

I think it's not recommended to run them with aftermarket springs because they don't want people setting the billy's to a preload setting and ALSO using lift springs.

The billy's have the same spring perch as any other shock, so running any lift springs with the billy's set to zero should be fine.
