    I have a 2004 double cab 2x4 v6. I will be doing 75% of street use and 25% of off roading. My street use is somewhat rough sometimes as I like to go fast through bumps and sometimes cross though parking lot dividers.

    What I want to get out of the following lift kit is, good ride quality, about 1.5-2.5 of lift to add some bigger tires. I don't want it to be very stiff and, I don't want to have the trouble of aligning the truck every 2 months as well. I basically want something that is as close to OME. I am also planning to add a front and rear bumper to the truck later on. So might as well get something that is reinforced.

    I have came to the conclusion of choosing between two lift kits, but I still don't know which one will fit my needs best. The two lift kits that Im looking at is the Bilstein lift kit with 5100 and eibach coils with AAL package(Part Number BK9504NDR). That comes out to a total of $513 at toytec with the black friday deal they have going on.

    The other lift kit that I'm looking at is the old man emu tacoma suspension with 883 front coils toytec AAL and shock stone guards(Part Number OME-9504TAC-883-SG) that comes out to a total of $658. (on the old man emu it suggest if i want the front shock coil assemblyfor $100, but I'm not sure if i really need it?)

    Also will i be needing a UCA for any of the lift kits to avoid having my truck having alignment or steering issues? If you guys know of a better site than toytec for pricing i would greatly appreciate it as well thank you!
