    Ahhh ok I think your getting a little confused.

    On a previous Tacoma I had put a set of Dakar springs on the back. When I got them delivered, there was only one set of bushings....the front I believe. So I had to order another set for the back of the springs.

    The shocks
    Ahhhh ok, I think you getting yourself confused. Yes on a previous Tacoma I put on a set of Dakar rear springs. When I received them I noticed they obviously only came with bushing on the front eye of the spring so I had to order a set of bushings for the rear eye. Someone asked about poly bushings and I suggested oem.

    The rear shocks should be good to go when you get them. Because it's a TRD package, I'd have to assume those brackets come with the resi's.....I admit I havnt looked into the ad to see if it is included....but now I will. My truck is the the BAJA and came with the lift from the factory.

    The spring seat spacer I have not installed yet.

    Looking at the description on the eBay add. I bet "hardware kit" falls in line with those brackets.

    Yeah, my bad, sorry, getting late! I've been reading posts for a straight hour and a half, time for bed!...I read through the add but it just says installation package or something like that. I guess i can read up on the part from toyota and see if that says what comes with it. From what your saying it sounds like it would. Ok, i think you've covered all my questions. I really do appreciate your time/answers! It's a big process and a lot of money and just want to be sure i'm getting the right parts and will have everything i need when i go to install it. I'm expecting the install to be the easy part! lol.....Thanks again!

    I bought the spacer from toytec and have it installed. What are you wondering about it?

    Curious if you installed uca's with it? and any alignment issues? I wouldn't mind the extra 1" but i'm not looking for any problems either.....

    edit: and any issues with vibes? 2.75" is getting into that "range"........thanks..

    The reason many people like this lift is, since it raises the front 1.75", it can use the stock UCAs. And since Toyota engineered it you should feel no vibes that may occur with a higher lift.

    Ucas aren't needed until you hit the 3" mark. So adding the toytec specific Spring seat spacer to our coilovers leaves us just shy. I've talked to a few guys that have added the spacer to ask them just this specific question. They have not added uca's and have no vibes or issues. That's why I know at some point I am going to be adding the spacer myself.

    Ah, this made his question clearer to me! And provided some good info on additional lift in the front.

    Sometime's I'm just fumbling around in the dark...

    +1, I have not noticed any issues with leaving the stock ucas in and there were no issues with the alignment. Granted it's only been a month and I am still fairly new to all of this, slowly learning as I go.

    Awesome, thanks guys.....if i do go the 1" spacer route that would be 2.75" in the front. To keep the rake about the same i'm guessing in the rear i would keep in the overload?

    ok, jaun since you've been such a big help so far could i ask you for one more favor, could you just look over my parts list and make sure it looks correct before i put the order in? Anyone else can chime in too........After visiting the toytec website i'm going to go with the 1" spacer as well for the full 2.75" in the front and the progressive 3 leaf pack in the rear with the stock overload which should give me 2.5" lift in the rear. That should keep the rake about the same as stock which i like....
    So my order looks like this:
    1) trd pro suspension kit (PTR13-35150)
    2) Toytec progressive 3 leaf add a leaf pack, with longer u-bolts (TT-MINIL14)
    3) Front Baja/TRD Pro spacer (BAJA1-B)
    ............and am i missing anything?? ........As always i appreciate all the help!

    What about extended breaklines? I don't think they are a must but I got them installed just to be safe, though I have dakars and not AALs.
