    He has the tsb, so it isn't a stock rear.

    The front was about 1/4" higher. The tsb leafs gave my rear a tiny lift. If you have the 3 leaf leafpacks it wont look like that. Only if you had the tsb done.

    Still considered stock.
    The tacomas come with 3 leaf leafpacks. There is a Technical Service Bulletin in which you can get the leaf packs replaced for free with a 4 leaf leafpack. Still toyota parts. You have to be under warranty though.

    Some people sell theirs on here for cheap fyi.

    ok so if i did a lift in the front with like a 2.5'' or like 3'' with my stock back without the TSB do you think it would look stupid i dont like a super big lean i dont mind a slight lean just nothing drastic what you think?

    What kind of lift are you looking into. I say get the bilstein shocks and set them at 2.5" and call it a day. If you want a rear lift you can always get one later.

    well if you get the billys we could take the coilovers off, head to a shop and have them compress the new shocks on real quick. It would be about 40 bucks. And you will more than likely like the billy lift over the spacers.

    Most auto repair shope have a wall mounted spring compressor. You will pry have to call about 10 shops but you will find one that should do it for about 20 bucks a shock.

    Maybe start calling shops nearby the place.

    Oh Sweet. Im in Fontana. Just shop around online for them. Check in the for sale section here too. Idk how picky you are but there are some people that sell them used and already assymbled on the coils. That is a super easy 30 minute install.
