    Do I need a rear lift with this setup? I plan on setting the shocks @ 0 and letting the springs do the lifting. Just wondering if it'll sit level, not after the bro lean look..

    I'd guess you'll probably sit about 1/2 to 1" high in the front. you should just install the 5100/881 and see where it sets. Drive it around for a couple weeks while it settles then take measurements to see how much, if any, rear lift you need/want.

    Depends on how bad your stock leafs are. 881s with 5100s produced ~2.5" of lift in the front of mine. I went with a set of in the rear, that produced ~2" of lift immediately after install and ~1.5" after settling. The result is a relatively level stance, so I'm pretty sure you'll have some bro-lean if you don't add some lift in the back.

    I had a 99 4WD Tacoma years back that I did 882's w/OME shocks up front and the same wheeler's 5 leaf in the rear and it sat exactly level. With yours being a prerunner, it'll probably end up being just as Norton is describing.

    I'll probably go with the 5 pack from wheelers then cause after taking a peak at my leafs today, they definitely should be replaced. Wheelers also has the Deaver 8 pack that provide 1.5" of lift, are these worth the extra money? Only asking b/c I have plans for mid travel in the future..
