    Here is the 6112 and 5160 combo with front set at 4/5 and rear medium Dakar Leafs. Truck has camper shell, tacoma rubber mat and 165 lb RTT in this pic. Without the tent I gained about 1.5 inches all around after settling. Ride is great.

    Skinnies are next - Also vouch for Marie at Headstrong Offroad. She is very knowledgable.

    Ok, thanks for all the help I truly appreciate it. Ordered the 6112s and 5100s and went with Dakar Medium rear packs. Will definitely follow up when I get them installed. Taking offers of manual labor now....lol

    Add the ECGS bushing to your party.

    You may or may not need it, but you certainly don't want to find out after you've already completed the front.

    5100's all around, OME 887 with 1/4" spacer, icon 3 leaf aal. 255/75/17 BFG KM's on 4runner pro's. Rigid led pods. Debadged and tinted.
    From what I've read, you can do a 3 leaf AAL and leave the over load in for ~2" of lift unloaded, with the cap you should be around 1.5". Leaving the factory overload also doesn't ruin your hauling capability for the future.

    I just installed the icon 3 leaf AAL on my truck today. Only about 50 miles on it, but it's great so far. I left the overload out, since I run a tonneau and rarely carry weight.

    None taken. We do the best we can to supply the best prices. We do also offer strut and coil assembly which comes with all new hardware which not everyone offers and some people really need. Keep in mind, with whomever you buy from, that Bilstein does make you go back to the company you purchased from to handle your warranty claims. Jet, E-bay, Amazon places like that may not be willing/able to bring the shock back and inspect it and process the warranty for you like actual shops can. Just a friendly heads up.
