    Hello all,

    So I have a stock 2010 tacoma. Rear TSB has been done. Have a ARB bumper in the garage. Going to throw it on even though I have stock suspeion. I was looking at the Bilstein 5160 in the rear with the OME Dakars. Also want to run the Bilstein 6112 up front with the OME 886 coils. Stock UCA.

    What would the advantage going with the bilsteins over the OME suspension kit? Maybe a smoother ride? I will also be waiting for a black friday sale to show up before I make a purchase.. who wouldnt?

    Thanks for advice.
    Ray

    Well first I'm pretty sure OME coils won't work on the 6112's, and the 5160's are too short for the lift from dakars. So you need to start looking at other alternatives.

    Thanks for the heads up on that.
