    The front shocks are set at 1.75. I wanted to go to 2.5 but after researching around here and talking to my mechanic, I decided to just go 1.75 so there was less of a chance of problems to other suspension components and drive train. I'm glad I did! I think it turned out perfect for me. The ride is great. Its nicer than stock. Oh, and I don't have the rear TSB springs, just the 1 inch block, and it's about level. Maybe 1/2 higher in the rear. I'm thrilled with how it turned out!

    Thanks for the response. One more question. Did you put 5100s on the rear or stay with stock shocks?

    Did you use the stock springs/coils or get aftermarket ones and are you using stock UCA's. It does not say if you are 4x4, if you are did you get the front diff drop.

    Thanks for the info..

    Hey everyone. Quick question. I recently upgraded my rotors and pads to a heavier duty pads. I was having squeezing and all since I had them put on. The dealership says there is nothing than can do because it is a high performance pad and is a "hard" pad. Does anyone have any ideas? It is really really annoyiny.

    I kept the stock shocks on the rear. I'll probably upgrade them to the 5100's at some point though.

    Yup, stock coils and stock UCA's. It is 4x4, but I don't have a diff. drop. From the research I've done and with talking to my mechanic, its not really necessary. I've put almost 3000 miles on it since I got it done, and not one issue. It drives perfect.
