    Yes the bilsteins 4600 are bigger diameter than the Toyota. Probably gets confusing cause they are both blue and yellow

    Yeah, those wont work with the TR kit. Just saw your picture up above. Is there anyone that makes a performance coilover for a lowered 6lug truck?

    I talked with Tom about that couple years ago. There’s definitely nothing bolt on for the tr kit. I’m curious if the tundra TRD shocks could be retrofitted for the tacoma

    Has anyone with a lowered 4wd swapped their TR kit out for QA1's up front? i thought i remembered @TRON looking into this, but dont remember if there was enough clearance for the CV axles

    The diameter of these adjustable Vikings or QA1s are little over 2 inches. So the clearances for the axles would questionable. Too tight for me to buy a set

    I don’t know of anyone who has adjustable front coilovers and is dropped with 4x4

    So I'm wrapping up my install of the TR kit, I also bought an RAS kit to install only to realize the rear leaf eye has no clearance with the new shackle. I'm thinking about just hooking it over the upper shackle bolt, maybe finding a leaf bushing to slip over first.

    Open to peoples thoughts.

    Welp I realized the above won't work on the passenger side at all because of the exhaust :annoyed:. So either a reroute is needed or I need to find an RAS alternative.

    I have a lot of info I found that may be useful to others, I haven't made any changes as of yet though. I'll pull it together and post when I have a little time.
