    i'll soon to be picking up a new rockhopper, to replace my old Crosstrail(converted purely to mountain use)

    im 50/50 on adding a tri-fold cover, but glad to see this method works for multiple bikes, as i'll need to carry up to 3 at times.

    Here's my component list:

    I shopped around and found the best prices on Amazon, no tax, free shipping; there are other vendors around here that will match or beat prices too. My driving situation doesn't require the extended travel or need for remote reservoirs included in the stage 4 kit. Also, stage 4 comes with the AAL that just gives height to the crappy stock leafs(I'll sell cheap to anyone) which is no good if you use your truck to haul or tow, you know, truck things.

    As far as UCAs go, the SPC was about half the price of the Icon and offers greater adjust-ability; I don't regret it. You can do the math and come to your own conclusions in terms of where you want to spend your money.

    Here are some pics since the last time I posted. I added a Leer 100 XR shell, Thule Rack and of course, the Dakar leafs to bring up and maintain rear height.

    Looks damn good op. Amazing what a lift does for the appearance of a DCLB.

    I would suggest you consider ICON 58635 for the same price but with extended travel.

    I was looking into that as well, but figured since this is my daily driver, I won't need the extended travel. Maybe I'll have Icon change them into ETs when the time comes to send in for rebuild...

    Interesting substitution here with the CS047R Leaf Springs instead of the Add-A-Leaf. I've found listings with a $200 price and also your $400. Do you know the difference and have a suggestion what and where I should order?

    Today (yesterday actually) I purchased a Leer 180 for my Access Cab. I plan to build a storage/bed rack underneath it.

    I've heard mixed reviews on the Diff Kit and playing the wait and see game. My coils are showing 1 7/8" of thread, not maxed out, guessing I have about 2-2.5" of lift in the front. I do have the OME FK29 rear driveshaft spacers, but haven't installed yet; no signs of vibrations or shudder.

    The Dakars aren't necessarily packaged in a set like the AAL. When you see a $200 price tag on the Dakars, you're probably only looking at a single side, rather than a set of two. Amazon, for example, sells them as a singles for a going rate of $206.15 (free shipping) at the moment. I purchased from Amazon, likely better deals out there, but probably not by much. Also worth mentioning, the leafs are not side specific.

    You bet! I've spent more time and money than I care to mention from the "informative" contributions of tacomaworld members, just my way of giving back. :thumbsup:

    I'm really thinking these might be my top choice. The Cepeks look nice and have really great reviews, but I honestly don't need that level of tire at this point and for $30 cheaper per corner for me, the Wildpeaks are looking pretty nice. Do you have the A/Ts or M/Ts?

    As soon as my stock tires wear out I'm definitely going for the wildpeaks. No question in my mind.
