    Ive been researching questions pertaining to this for a while an feel it would be faster to directly ask.
    Would lifting the front end of a stock TRD OR 17 utilizing 5100s on the second preset have any possible negative effects on light to medium off roading use. No plans to rock crawl. I know that spacer lifts can damage a multitude of components due to reduced travel length, does installing the 5100s create the same issue?
    Side bar question - what is the least expensive way to lift the vehicle around 1.5 inches in rear while also leveling it in front, but maintaining all capabilities of driving off road?
