    They are factory housings with led bulbs in them, they work pretty well! Eventually may switch to the morimoto like you have which looks much nicer

    Right on, I couldn't remember haha.

    Just working and planning out what to do with my front suspension.

    I think I'm going to keep my 3rd gen OR coils. And slap some 5100s on set to zero and add a .25" top plate spacer on both sides.

    Kinda hoping to get a softer ride and combat the weight of the incoming front bumper.

    You see any reason why this setup wouldn't work?

    I really like the 5100s, you’ll gain slight height with the top plate spacers but I’d do both side. I’ve never had an issue with the taco lean

    :rofl: The only thing you may have to do is get the bumper on, see how much it sags and settles, and possibly swap to OME coils

    :annoyed:
    I don't want 886s becuase it'll lift the front too much and I won't be able to fit under the carport.

    :(

    Well I was gonna do Energy Suspension rack bushings, but after removing the entire rack to do it, the rubber factory bushings have to be torched out. Not gonna do it. Also both my inner seals are leaking so now I’m just replacing the entire steering rack assembly complete with new outer tie rods. What a cluster :bananadead:
