    I think it’s pretty funny how you guys monitor what people say. What does it matter that I ask people what lift they have? Isn’t this what this site is kinda for....? You both have nothing better to do? Mind your guys business and get on with your day.

    haha well since you got time let’s hear it. I mean this page is for finding information right? I already bought 5100’s and 880 coils a year ago when I got the truck which I wish I didn’t buy and that’s before research so I’d say I did pretty good. I’m trying to do research and find the lift I want to make the stance I want.

    I'll entertain.

    I just hope you've actually taken the replies you've received over the many threads created, and figured out a solid choice.

    It sucks that the 5100's didn't work for you, but I think you may have expected a bit too much out of them. Maybe not and they just weren't set up the right way (I would've suggested 881's). Maybe you just didn't mess with them enough to achieve an easy-to-obtain stance and it could be for a multitude of reasons...not here to judge.

    But you have been given a ton of responses, by many members, and it seems to go through one ear and out the other.

    You're not obligated to buy what we suggest, but if we're suggesting something, maybe it's because we've gone through the purchase/experience and we're trying to help.

    With that said, what are you finally going to purchase?

    I don't know if I mentioned it but I went straight to Fox 2.5/2.0 to alleviate the headache you seem to be going through.

    Then with the 4Runner I went straight to King 2.5/2.5 to achieve the same outcome as above, but with a different color.

    Nice truck, but to help others...it's important to note whether your Dakars are the CS (older, discontinued) variant or the EL (replacement) variant.

    Also, Dakar never made an HD pack for 1st gens. They're offered with or without an AAL.

    awesome. Looks good with the 882’s. I think that’s what I’m gonna do for front. As far as back I’m stuck between the 3 leaf progressive add a leaf and the Dakar’s. Looks really good with the Dakar’s though.

    The main reason for me to get the AAL is I tow my sxs so I think you should be fine without and you can always add it if you need it later

    this is what I have and the extended rear brake line. I don’t need the exhaust hangar because I’m dumping the exhaust before the rear axle anyways.
