    1997 Tacoma 4x4 ext cab. 2021 TRD Off Road AG DCSB
    1997 - 2 in level kit, 31" tires, aluminum tool box.
    1st question is im looking at getting bilstein 5100s in the front and was wondering if the leveling kit i have on would need to be removed. 2nd is what would be a good rear suspension lift. I was thinking about getting something like Dakar leaf packs in the back but it says they fit 98-04s. mine a 4x4 97. so not sure what the alternative is there. last question is my tps sensor is bad yet its held in with security screws... anybody know how to get them off short of breaking out the hack saw?

    1. YES REMOVE THE LEVELING KIT. Dont stack lifts potential for disaster.
    2. What do yo udo with your truck? and how much lift do you want?

    How mechanically inclined are you?

    3. no clue about the TPMS...
