    Thanks! I love the 5100/eibachs they handle great! Been considering bumping them up to .85 in the near future. I also am looking at ditching the the rear setup for something beefier.

    Thanks. The 4runner sport rims are one of my favorite rims Toyota offered. I've taken them off to have them powder coated graphite. I think it should be a nice contrast with the pyrite.

    I just want to have a little better spring in the rear for towing and some minor carrying times. Are you saying this spring: http://www.generalspringkc.com/Leaf_Springs_Toyota_Tacoma_2012_2014_s/2110.htm
    would be better than stock? I have a TRD OR package and don't really think I need to replace the shocks. I'm assuming the ride might be a little more firm. Thanks

    How much lift did the General HD leafs give you and how is the ride ? Also did you get any squeaking after install?

    '13 TRD Sport AC
    Thinking of going with the 5100 @ 0 w/ eibach setup on my '13 AC sport. Is it worth going with a whole new leaf pack or just progressive aal? I understand a new leaf pack is better but for my application (85% on road / 15% off road for hunting / lighter off roading) is it worth it? really just looking to increase on and off road performance but not planning to do any real serious off roading since its my DD. Want to keep the integrity of a mostly stock vehicle. Also, the truck came stock with 4 leafs total (3 plus overload), can anyone chime in on if 1.5" aal would keep truck at stockish rake? would rather keep it on slight rake side vs rear sag, but dont want too much rake.

    Thanks everyone

    1.5" aal from icon should be right for you. A new leaf pack may be overkill unless you haul a lot. If you keep the 5100s at 0 you'll have 1.6" of lift so with 1.5" aal you will have the exact same rake, the truck will just be taller

    Headstrong's website states the Eibach coils yield 2.5'' of lift; is this not accurate? Looking to get the most out of my 5100's without needing UCA's.

    There are two different eibach coils for the Tacoma. One set is 1.6" lift and the other is a 2.5" lift. You can check both out on toytech's website.
