    Looking to lift my 03 dbl cab 2.5" or 3". 5100s all around, add a leaf, and possibly with OME springs. How much did you pay for parts and labor?

    I did the same thing but with blocks in the rear for awhile. Im starting to switch everything over to OME now. Total spend on the rear leafs, new shocks, 2 bushing kits, and a carrier bearing shim kit was about 450$ for the rear end. Another 450$ for the front. So 800-900$ for OME or 170 for daystar kit (works fine on road and for light offroad)

    5100s/OME 881s (pre-assembled) and 3 leaf AALs through Headstrong for around $850 OTD I think it was?

    $400 for installation and alignment at a local tire shop

    So I think I ended up at $1200 or so all in. Eventually I got SPC light racing UCAs as part of a groupbuy for $425, plus $250 installation on those.

    I really wish I had my own garage.....

    Having a 95.5 the rear springs are different from the later ones, according to the vendor, and the total came in at 1604 with uca's + the cost of hardware (shackles and front bolt) from Mr. T.
