    Horrible if you offroad even a little bit. The spacers will stillen your ride pretty good

    You can get the bilstein 5100's set at 2.5"

    They list for $310 at our extremely reputable vendor downsouth motorsports but we also get a discount.

    no, but the rear shock will give you excellent ride quality. Toytech sells the AAL to raise the rear. If you want to maintain any quality in the ride you are going to have to avoid spacers and blocks

    well the AAL should help with that. Toytech is also very reputable but I have not dealt with them so I am hoping someone else can chime in

    def. go with Toytec! Dont do a spacer like said before. I would go for the coil lift with some bilsteins.
    then get the bilsteins at DS. Great setup and ride!
