    what is a better ride quality set up??? 2.5 inch daystar polyurethane coil spacers up front or 3" revtek front lift(can be ordered from wheelers)
    anyone running either of these?
    I love my 2.5 daystar spacers... rides awesome (people hate these i know but they improved my ride quality of my 99 TRD suspension) , but im putting on a bumper and i think i want to throw the revtek on the front to compensate for the weight of the bumper...(dont want my front end to droop)hence the extra 1/2 inch...
    any input? thanks

    maybe i should get new TRD front springs? I'm thinking my stock front springs have probably sagged a bit since the truck is 10 years old?

    or some OME springs that give lift

    Given the age of your truck, your best bet is to get 4 new shocks, and new front springs. OME or Eibsch. Dont use the spacer on them.

    No. You cant use a spacer lift with the OME springs.
