    So I may or may not be getting a Rear TSB from my dealer but if it dosent work out I have some questions regarding my "back up plan".
    So I will be installing Bilstein 5100 @1.75 with stock TRDOR Coils.

    Now my backup plan is getting 1.5" toytech add-a-leaf and have a few questions regarding that...

    -Will I need to replace the STOCK Bilstein shocks in the back if I get this the 1.5aal

    -If anyone is running this, how do they like it?

    Thanks

    You will need a different shock in the rear. Unless you want to blow the stockers out first by over extending them.

    Old thread but you get the idea. You can stay with stock but its not the best idea, if you dont want new ones you can get shock extenders, again not the best idea

    Those will work. Im running a toytec 2" AAL with those 5100's however if you plan on lifting higher you'll have to upgrade for longer travel.
