    3" lift EIBACH coils w/ 5100's front, OME/ Dakar leaf springs w/ toytec adjustable shackles at 1.5" and 5125's out back. 33x10.5x15 KM2's Relentless DIY steel bumper.
    Did the tundra 5100's paired with FJ coils give you a full 3"?

    I have a buddy who has tundra 5100's paired with 1st gen tacoma springs. I think he had to put the C clip on the 3rd setting to get the full 3" lift. The tundra 5100 has 5 settings, correct?

    I didn't like the tundra 5100s and tundra progressive coils. Far too stiff so bumps were bone jarring.

    Mainmoe02 - yes fj coils and tundra billys at 2nd notch gave me 3in lift. I had the coils and my stock trd shocks gave me 2in but was alittle stiff but needed longer shocks.

    Isu2014 - i dont have tudra springs, got 4x4 fj coils at 2nd notch and rides way better den stock. But wen i did have it paired with by tokikos it was stiff due to compressing spring more to my shorter shock.

    The way I do it. I go to tacoma photos and click on upload photos it will give you an option to choose a file. Upload the pic you want. When it uploads it will give you a link. Copy and paste that link to whatever post you want it on. But I still haven't figured out how to do more then one pic.

    Sparkies coma: sign up for photobucket and use the img code to post up. That's the easiest way.

    Also, I actually went wheeling today! (It's been almost 6 months)

    If you're going to use an image hosting site use Flickr. You get higher quality pics and 1TB of storage free. You only get 2GB with Photobucket.

    It was Spring Creek trail. It was my first time up that trail and it was fun but difficult!:) I've got a bunch more pictures up on my build thread, if you're interested.

    I wouldn't bother modding something you don't really want. You've already done that once :p

    Wait until you get the exact Tacoma you want this time!

    I need to start classes as well... Once day shift comes back around in August...

    There was a little snow on top. You're right, the obstacles are so big and the rocks are kind of slippy so you've got to be really careful. The only guy that made the hard line on Gate Keeper was this guy:
