    Sorry, signatures really have nothing to do with the post so I generally don't read them.

    It's okay to admit you're scared of actual flavor. :D

    Stick to 2.5". That's what the OME is anyway. When you get to (and beyond) the 3" mark you start running into other issues.

    You'll also want a diff drop kit.

    I just upgraded from 3rd Gen TRD OR shocks and coils to a Bilstein 6112/5160 setup. My new suspension kit is night and day difference.

    Depends where you live. Here in South Texas, a lot of public roads are washboards.

    I bought four more jack stands, and an 18v 1/2" Impact today.
    I'm ready

    You should replace one side with the new set up and drive it. See if you can see which side of the truck rides better and let us know :anonymous:
