Yea if I was wanting to spend that much but no

 

I'm not sure then, Bro. I've been researching lifts for months but mainly full lifts like the ICON, King, Toytec Ultimate, Toytec Boss, Rancho, etc. I'm sure some of the guys will weigh in on this kit. Good luck and keep us posted.

 

Thanks

 

You can stick with the OME coils and rear AAL, those coils have great reviews. But you may need longer shocks all around. The only other thing you'll need is a Brake Proportion Valve bracket. You can get a cheap one from toytec, you could make your own, or you could order one from BAMF.

Don't hold me to "needing longer shocks", Your lift might work with the shocks you have.

 

So the ome coils just go to my stock strut

 

I doubt they will work with stock shocks but I've never had experience sticking longer coils on stock shocks, so it's possible I guess. When I put eibachs on I bought 5100 bilsteins front and rear. For the rear I know you need longer shocks after a certain amount of lift. I think you'll be ok with 2" of rear lift with stock shocks but the shocks will not have any up travel because they will be fully extended.

I'd get longer shocks just to be safe and have better ride quality.

 

So I would have to buy shocks for front also

 

Buy the 5100 shocks and then get eibach springs from toytec and the AAL and it will be cheaper than the lift itself.

 

it says "Optional med and heavy coils can be selected but require OME 90000 shocks sold separately" i guess 884's dont requiere new shocks? idk

 

How is it cheaper then entire lift

 

It's not, It would be about 480. You do need shocks with that lift. 5100s are cheaper than OME 90000 and will work fine. A lot of guys on TW use 5100s w/ OME coils.

Go to the forum list on top of page and read through the suspension forum. Lots of options are talked about.

 

Ok rhanks

 

How much are you looking to spend? The "best" option for cheap is to get 5100s all the way around, you can use your stock coils and set the front 5100s to 1.75 or 2.5 for lift and get an Add-a-leaf (AAL) in the rear. You can get all that for about the price of a spacer lift and have a better lift. If you can afford a little more, I would get aftermarket coils (OME or Eibach) and then you can leave the shocks set to zero or .85 in the front and have a bit of a softer ride.

 

You get what you pay for.

 

Well I just spent 13k on my truck plus I have a 3 month old son so my income is limited

 

You can get a good lift from Bilsteins and new coils. In lifts you do get what you pay for but in your case your not looking at spacers so you'll improve ride quality if you go with new lift coils like OME or Eibachs.

 

if you just want to get it higher then spacers will be best for your needs.
i was going to go bilsteins all around but ended up with fox shocks and coilovers.
very happy with it so far
