Another question about lift kits

Dakars

 

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

 

I dont know what would be better/more cost effective buy dakers for 400 plus 140 shipping then pay to get them put on. Or try and do it my self. Or go to a shope near my place thats done a few buddys trucks. AAL and re arc for 450

 

And for the front eibachs are sold out everywhere now and i got told it will be at least a month to come back in stock and are a pain to find in Canada in the first place

 

maybe u should go with a full OME setup

 

This.

 

Don't do it, I understand where your coming from but, re arc sag with time and the aal is only so good. It's like putting a wonder bra on some saggy boobs. Get new boobs and call it good you won't be disappointed . You know what I mean, invest in a good quality rear leaf pack and call it good, a little more money up front but in the long run it will save you time money and headaches trying to mess around with crappy stock springs in the future. I did and I'm glad.

Rear leaf installs are pretty easy and really only use basic hand tools, pretty straight foward. It can take a few hours with your buddy's . No big deal

Thanks ,

Did you try Toytec? I ordered mine last week and it was at my house in 3 days, to NJ that is. And if your concern is the weight in the rear get the replacement leaf packs. The Dakars seem to be the most popular.

 

Yeah I tried toytec on their site it says back ordered and I tired email them to see about how long but havent heard anything back
For the rear i got recommeded Dakers with the extra leaf. Does anyone think its needed for hauling an atv often.

 

Would there be any problems with going with the bilstine 5100 and 884 OME lift coil instead of eibach coils?

 

Nope that would work. You may not want to preload them tho, keep the billys set at 0

Give this a look over OP. Some really good info and will save a bunch of money. Otherwise I have the daks and they are great.

 

I know alot of people on here are West Coast so I have a question about a California company. Its CCM Offroad they have a Taquito 2.75 leveling 5 lug lift for Tacos, it's a full lift and $200.00 on ebay with only 16.95 shipping. Looks good in the pic but I was wondering if anyone on here had had any experience with their products. Ready Lift is $139 more with free shipping. Both claim a lifetime guarantee against failure. Any help would be appreciated for this Noob!

 

If I wanted a three inch lift would it be a problem to set it up one notch to get close to the three inches

 

I say get dakars and put them on yourself.. if u are friends with local members they might even help u.. if u supply moral supportive beverages..

 

If you want a full 3" just get 885s with 1/4" top plate spacer. I have heard both with 884s some say you shouldnt preload them with billies, some say you can.
