    The UCAS are easy. The hardest part of the whole job is assembling the coilover.

    Nice, think they come pre assembled. If not we have a shop at wk, I'm sure the mechanics there can put them together for me.

    The $90 strut assembly is a real bargain. With that, you get a new "top hat"....The piece that secures the coil on the top of the strut. Your old one MAY be fine, but with the assembly, you KNOW you have a good one before you start disassembly. Saves bit of time on the install too!

    Does anyone have the 3 leaf mini pack?
    What's difference between single leaf and 3 leaf besides price 80.00 or so?

    The folks at Toytech won't do you wrong either! I shopped and shopped.....Found that Headstrong has the best deal when you factor in the free shipping. And Marie was so helpful.

    I'm in the same situation as you....08 stock suspension 88k miles, sitting at 20 hub to fender. Thinking of going with camburg UCA OME (885 or 887 not sure) 5100s and full Dakars..... after search around I'm thinking this will get me around 2.5 of lift all around.

    Marie at Headstrong said 887 coil will give me full 3" as long as I didn't add aftermarket number or winch, ect to front.

    Adding 1 leaf, she said Dakar was more for campers and carrying around 300 lbs all time. Which I don't do. Or if u tow a lot, mine is a daily driver to wk and every now and then island.
