    Can some of you post your rear setups and pics. I'm about .5 lower in the rear now that everything has settled and I need to pull my leafs apart anyways since I have a horrible squeezing coming out of them and need to replace the pads on them

    We removed the spring from the coil and even removed the spacer that extended the bump stop and after cycling we found that it wouldn't make much of a difference and I would end up binding up on the uniball on the UCA. So the front is getting as much travel as I can get out if it without causing big damage. I'm happy with the close to 8" of travel I'm getting up front.

    If you have to get new shocks you should take some measurements and check your full droop and full compression measurements because on a 6" lifted truck you can prob fit 10" or 12" shocks just using the stock mounts. If you have an aftermarket spring pack I guarantee you the PC's are limiting your droop travel by at least 4".

    If you are looking for a low budget replacement check out Bilstein 5100's & 9100 CO's. A buddy of mine just bought the 12" "universal fit" I believe they were called and they came with a top mount adapter for Toyota and I think he only paid $100 each and he is perfectly happy with them. Just get your measurements and then find the matching #'s and use their adapter for the top mount.

    I have 6" ext travel Icon 2.0 that even on a 5" lift still limit my droop by 2". So whatever you go with, do your measurements. Regardless, the 2.0 without resi was great for me, and I use my truck the way it was intended.
