    I considered it but I typically run around with up to 5-600 lbs of stuff in the bed plus people in the backseat on the weekends, without the O/L you might be restricted to a bit less, maybe 3-400lbs.

    That would work for me. I have about 100-200 lbs in bed just about all times.

    I like this. getting ready to pull trigger on new Tacoma. How is the ride compared to stock? I am in it 650 miles a week and the Tacoma is already little rough already. But It needs lift and some tires for better stance. Id be getting my dealer to install whatever lift I decide and put tires on it too. They said they can do whatever lift I want to add.

    Here it is on level ground, four days after lift install, front and back have settled about half an inch, 1.75 front and back lifted overall and still retains the factory rake even with the additional weight of the longbed and full toolbox.

    Tire size still looks good, performance so far has been even better than expected, extremely happy with the results!

    why the 2nd gen 5100s over the 3rd gen 5100s? did you use regular length or extended length rear shocks?

    Regular length and I bought the shocks long before they even had 3rd gen shocks available, they've been sitting in my garage for almost 20 months waiting to get put on. I considered swapping them out for 3rd gens but had not seen any real disadvantage to staying with the 2nd gens over getting the 3rd gens. Headstrong OME spring chart says I might drop 1/2 an inch with the 2nd gens (1.5 inches of lift instead of 2.0 inches when paired with the 885 springs) and due to them being valved for the lighter truck, I see that as gaining a little more shock travel

    The regular length Bilsteins in the rear.

    Thanks. You helped me make up my mind on which set up I'm going to order.

    You're welcome. I really wanted to keep my lift under 2 inches so alignments wouldn't be a problem with the stock UCA's, 3rd gen Bilsteins put me right at the edge of the 2 inch threshold.

    Truck rides like a dream.

    Icon stage 2 RXT. Ride is AMAZING! Didn't think it would be better than my deaver u402s with icon cdcv shocks, but it is.. And sits about an inch taller. I'm sure it'll settle a bit and that's when I can add in the payload spring that icon includes with these packs.
