    EDIT: Posted this before I finished composing it. Oops.

    Looking to change my lift this year. Currently I have the AAL with a 1" block. And I have the stock shocks, which I'm pretty sure need replacing.

    I'm most likely going with the Dakar's this time, and the 5100's. Should I get these 5100's:
    http://toyteclifts.3dcartstores.com/Rear-Bilstein-5100-Shocks_p_135.html
    or
    http://toyteclifts.3dcartstores.com/Rear-3-4-Lift-Bilstein-5100-Shocks_p_19.html

    If I got with the 3"-4" 5100's, do I need new bump stops with the Dakars? If so, what would be a good choice for that? Will that reduce up travel too much?

    If I go with the normal 5100's, do I risk over extending them, and reduce down travel too much?

    I think the 3-4in ones would be better but look up the travel numbers on the dakar pack and the extended/collapsed numbers on the 5100s that will help you decide which is better, if you go with the 3-4in one you most likely will want a bigger bumpstop

    I've been searching bumpstops. I'm not seeing any larger factory style stops. Looks like all universal stops, which don't mount the same way.

    Fab fours front and rear bumpers, B.A.M.F. weld on rock sliders, softopper, removed mud flaps and D-Badged everything. Icon 2.5 Extended Travel coil-overs, Total Chaos upppers, 2.0 Icon extended travel shocks with the resi's and Dekar Leaf packs.
    I would go with a custom built rear shock, like Kings or Icons. I'm not sure if mine are the normal ones or the extended ones, they are the ones that came with the Toytec Ultimate lift but I dont think the 5100's are long enough. I don't know if it's just me or not but I've had both of mine start leaking really bad.

    Thanks. The Wheeler's stops look like a direct replacement, and adjustable..

    According the list of parts, the standard option is the extended 5100's.
