    I just got a pair of downey coil overs of Craig's List for my DCSB 2006 tacoma, they are going to be put at around 3 inches. They did not come with sway bar relocation brackets or any thing else that is similar besides, they coil and shock set up, and the wrench to cranch them up or down. Do i need these brackets or can i just put them on, as is. thanks guys

    im not sure, he said that they provide a 3 inch lift, so if the sway bar does not rub, then i am good?

    ok, is it bad for your truck if you take the sway bar off
    and can i wait a few months to buy UCA's or is it really important to get them on now, thanks.

    i left my sway bar off. you just have to remember that it's a truck not a race car, so drive it like a lifted truck.

    don't go past 2.5" if you plan on keeping stock UCA's.

    No, but you do need to relocate your swaybar off the truck.
