    Im sure if you were able to get your coils and Shocks up to Toytec they would compress them for you as well. We ended up getting my buddies done at Discount tire and they didnt line up the lower eyelet correctly so we had to get them re compressed and rotate that eyelet at PepBoys. This was like 5 years ago though.

    Renting a spring compressor is not that much and it's easy. Slapps and I did it on mine with both of my lifts.

    We rented the crappy spring compressor from Advanced and couldnt get it to work worth shit. I think there are two types right? we might have had the wussy type or we might have been the wussies!!!! :D

    Yeah we bent one on my eibach springs. Then we got a better one we used an impact to crank them down. When I did my 5100's by my self I used a socket wrench and it took for ever.

    OUCH!!! A socket wrench, yeah now that you mention it I seem to remember just not being able to torque the compressor anymore, we quit and went to discount ha ha ha

    White DCSB with a TRD offroad sticker with a Colorado flag designed into the sticker, anyone on here?

    Looked like he had 5100's in the rear with stock wheels but bigger tires

    Yeah I cranked them all the way with a socket. My forearms were on fire. With the compressor it was a matter of seconds but Chris has a massive compressor.

    Yeah I may buy a kit new and assemble the COs myself, but it's a heartbreaker that I missed out on that deal, especially it being new and never installed with everything needed. It was there forever and I got the wife talked into it seriously one day late. Maybe I buy sliders (or nothing) and just hold out for another deal. That's the great thing about TW, those deals come around to patient people who keep an eye out.

    Congrats and get ready! I'm looking at my three month old right now and can't remember life without her, well I remember more sleep and freedom, but life has never been more complete. It's great! Have fun at the hospital, that part is a trip.

    I need a beer :) Forgot to pack it. Everything is good, just waiting. They said it would probably be morning for birth. About to be the father of a little baby boy.

    On a different note. I may need to be talked down from buying a diesel truck in the next 6 months or so! Someone help me I think I hit my head. (I have a 30ft camper that I have not been able to use in a while without borrowing my dads truck)
