    My 01 Double cab has 108000 miles with the original TRD shocks. I'm thinking it's time to replace them. I don't plan on lifting the truck. 5100's or HD?

    A lift, some wheels, some tires, some performance, some cosmetic and then audio.
    Since you have to remove the stock coilovers, use a spring compressor & get an alignment...why not get a set of the adjustable 5100's and level out the front so it sits nice?
