    So my new coilovers come in a week and a half. does anyone know if i have to relocate my swaybar? Ive heard a lot of good things about just removing it completely but i do commute and need my truck to perform just as well on road as off. any input?

    So on the aftermarket C/O's they have springs with greater outside diameters?

    Some do. The "2..0" dictates the shock diameter. Larger diameter shocks have larger diameter springs.

    I ask because I am putting eibach springs on the 5100's (same coil as toytec I believe)

    My reasoning is they reccomend them with the toytec CO, so I should need them with the direction I am going.

    With my factory coil I have maybe 3/8" clearance to the sway bar.
