    so i work at a toyota dealer and the accessories guy comes to me and ask if i want a single dakar leaf spring we had it in are basement for awhile and they were gonna toss it. so i got it for free. :bananadance:so now i wanna upgrade my suspension. i currently have a spacer/block lift.
    i wanna upgrade to 6112/5160/dakars/jba ucas(open to ideas but i dont want a uniball as i live in wi).
    i found a package deal for the 6112/5160 and cb drop shipped for 1054.00 from bilsteinlifts
    then i called wheelers for the one dakar and bushings and that shipped was 290.
    that sound like a good deal or can i get it cheaper else where
    let me know what you guys think.

    I'd be wary about pairing a brand new dakar pack with one that's been sitting around for god knows how long. You might wind up with a scholiosis rear rake.

    Ah well that's different. Does it have all of the ubolts and other connections as well?

    Just need the bushings and one more spring to finish the pair. Then get the shocks and arms

    i work at a toyota dealer and two weeks ago i talked to the accessories guy to get a price on a new lift so i could get rid of the spacers. i want billy 6112/5160/dakars. the price was higher then i figured it would be. told him to wait a lil bit and ill get it then. he ordered a lift for a customer. almost same lift as me. the company shipped my lift by accident. he didnt wanna return it so he sells it to me for a smoking deal. at cost with no mark up and no shipping. that saved me a ton
