    Are you guys talking about the Eibach 2.5 lifting spring on the bilstien 5100 set at stock height? I am getting those installed as I type this. I hope it turns out good, I had a strut lift and it sucked! I would never recommend strut lifts!

    I believe so. I know my Eibachs were good for 1.6" of lift and I had my Bilsteins at 0.85" so I was getting roughly 2.5" of lift. I had to put in the 1/4" lean spacer to correct the taco lean. You should really enjoy it, they rode great!

    Gotcha. You cant really go wrong with any of the big companies, pick a color! Me personally, I would wait, save my money, and just do it all at once. This is my 3rd stage of suspension mods on my truck and I am hoping to keep it that way.

    After 7 years being parked in the sun, my headlights were showing some serious sun damage. I picked up some Depo's and rebuilt my old retrofits into them.

    Got the chance to take the truck out last week. Got a few pictures but none turned out very well. For some reason I really liked this one though..

    So a little bit of an update..

    The billet satoshi grill fell apart on the last off road venture. Currently considering new options for the grill.

    I did however get a few shots earlier today after hiking this morning.
