    Ok, so I have a 2010 Tacoma Pre runner. I'm trying to finish lifting it. I'm going with the Bilstein 5100's set at 2.5 and then add a leaf for the rear. I already have the front and rear Bilsteins. I believe all I need left is longer u bolts and toyec add a leafs and of course the alignment after install. Is this all I need, or am I missing anything? Thanks for the help! http://toyteclifts.3dcartstores.com/Rear-ToyTec-Add-A-Leafs_p_10.html

    Shouldn't need longer u bolts if you're only adding 1 leaf.

    Really? Would it be level with a AAL on each side w/ Billsteins set @ 2.5?

    2" might be a bit too much if you're looking for level.. I'd say 1" to 1.5"

    Ok, cool. About how much of a overall lift will it be if I do 1.5"?

    1.5 inches.
    Measure front and rears before the lift. If you are 1 inch higher in the back now, and add 2.5 w/ the 5100s, you will be 1.5 inch higher up front. Add the 1.5 AAL and you are even.

    If you plan on pulling anything or putting anything in the back, you may want the back a little higher.

    Ok, cool! Thanks so much for the info. The add a leafs are 2", so I think it should sit pretty level. I'm hoping!
