    No, the glare isn't to bad. They still out do my headlights so I'm not complaining! I'm sure my paint being faded and dull helps with not projecting all the light straight up as well.

    Yea seems like a couple people have had the problem, good to know its not just me, guess the rubber for the harmonic balancer goes bad over time depending on the elements its been subject to. But all is well now so the taco is alive!

    I wouldn't pay 50 cents for that shit.

    Save up your money and do it right the first time.

    Bilstein 5100's set on the first setting should level out your truck without even doing anything to the back

    I ran this on my truck a couple years ago. In my opinion, this is the most budget friendly. You won't be happy with that stuff on Ebay.

    You can set these to 0", 1.5", or 2.5". And I'd recommend the 1.5" Add a leaf.

    Well I bought some duplicolor vinyl and trim dye today. I'm smoking the turn signals now and gonna pull the bumper and spray it inside. It's too cold to paint outside.
