    Well after reading this thread I think I'm ready to ask my question.

    I have a 2009 4x4 TRD SPORT DC and ready for a suspension upgrade. So here's my scenario...

    I'm thinking of 2.5 lift since it seems like anything above that I'll need to UCA along with other things. I want to make sure that I compensate for the rear since I'll be getting a camper and will be hauling 100-250 lbs of gear on some weekends. I don't mind having a small rake (butt high) when I'm not hauling stuff around but I don't want to be nose high when hauling the gear + camper in the rear. Is this kit something you would recommend? Also, would I need longer brake lines?

    Hopefully if this kit + other options would be less than 900 then I'll be ready to pull the trigger on the purchase fairly soon. Thanks for your time.

    TIA
    YC

    Looks like alot of us are in the same boat.
    First time dealing with a lift of any kind. I was looking at getting the 5100s with the OME 885 coils so I wouldn't have to get new UCAs.

    Not quite sure whether to go with the deavers AAL or the HS progressive AAL. I want to keep a slight rake but more level than factory.

    2010 V6 4×4 TRD OR DCSB

    Thanks :thumbsup:

    Sounds like there's still alot of interest in the kits with the HS AAL's. Any ETA on those Marie? I can financially plan accordingly... I hope:fingerscrossed:. Just blew out a knee trying to act young. That's going to be an expensive lesson.

    There has been a lot of interest. I just heard back and the production is behind a little so it could be another 2-3 weeks. I am SOOOOOOOOOOOOO sorry about the delays. I will do everything I can to get them in as quickly as possible. Please let me know if there is anything I can do for you guys/gals.

    I spoke to the production facility on Tuesday and they were QC'ing them and getting them ready for shipping. They are fairly local to us so transit times from them to us should be fairly quick. I am hoping they will be here sometime next week. :D

    Marie,
    I have a 2015 Tacoma, double cab with a 3'' leveling kit installed (front spacer and AAL rear). This is a daily driver with weekend fun. Currently have AVID front/rear body armor, but looking at a steel bumper in the future.
    5100 all around, 887 coils, (already have extra AAL), +/- UCA
    Do I need to consider 886 coils for a future steel bumper? and if so should I go with an OME shock?
    Thoughts? and do Bilsteins need to be rebuilt after a certain amount of miles?
    Thanks Marie

    I have a 2016 TRD OR 4x4 double cab short bed. I want to keep a mostly stock appearance and just level it out as the front is about 1.5" lower than the rear. If I went with the 5100/885 combo in the front and 5100 in the rear would I need the AAL or would the truck sit mostly level?
