    Hello everyone,
    I have a 2004 Tacoma with a 6" Fabtech lift installed. My front and rear shocks have gone bad. I was looking to purchase Bilstein 5150 for the rear. I'm also looking to upgrade the front with coilovers but I don't know what would work well with the 6 inch fabtech lift. Im lookin for a quality ride as well as performance because I usually bring my truck off roading on weekends. Any suggestions would be welcome. Thanks.

    Icon and king make replacement coilovers. Also there are several good options for the rear.
