    Of the three I would've went with the Bilstein 6112 instead at least. But for my truck Fox or Icons only :thumbsup:

    Agree with lord helmet. You can do a fox lift for about the same price range. And much better

    I wouldn't recommend OME shocks. Some guys get a 'clunk' sound issue and end up switching to Bilsteins.

    Uh no way. The front coilovers alone would be around $1k.

    Listen to @MSU Taco. #1 may have clunking issues, and #3 is the same as #2 with a fancy adjuster you may never need/use. The red coils are pretty though.

    Okay but 774 is just for the cheapest front fox coilovers. That doesn't include the rears, the leaf pack, no UCAs, nothing. Just the front pair of coilovers. That's not a complete setup.

    1600$ for the full setup. An extra 400$ and you get extended length and upper control arms. About the same prices of the upper end prices in the original post. And tons better.

    Wowwwww my bad I was looking in the 1st gen section of the website. That's a great deal. I wonder why headstrong doesn't have that deal for first gens also?

    5100s are a great option for the budget minded. I've had mine for about 30k and they've been awesome. No clunk like folks complain about with OME struts.

    The Toytec* kit is just Bilstein 5100s and Eibach coils that are fully adjustable (for a premium).

    I'm looking for a lift as well and was looking at this lift as well, for my 3rd gen. I'm new to the truck and lifts. My question is what is the purpose of the extended length coilovers?, extra weight in the front?. I see its an option. Note, I did a search and came to this thread. Thanks

    had the toytec ultimate before my icons and i loved it. Great on the road as it was my daily, and solid when wheeling. but if you got the cash fox, icon or king for the win!
