    After much debate and pouring over the TW forums I'm starting to narrow the lift that I want down. So I've been looking at this on.

    Is the Toytec Ultimate Lift hard to install? Anybody have this? What if I only want a 2'' lift? What are my options then?

    It's on backorder now so I have some time to make up my mind.

    That is a great lift. If you want 2" you can use a spacer, 5100's, or just set the ultimate kit to 2".

    Does that mean I need to do an AAL in the rear? 5100's all around? What spacer would I use?

    I believe Toytec has a 2" spacer lift. I think you could just bump the 5100s up and use just the stock coils.

    Is this the one you are talking about minus the Ranchos?

    I still want to go with the 5100s because I hear nothing but good things about them.

    Thanks..

    Wait. Why would you use spacers on the front if you are going with 5100s?

    The 5100s are adjustable to 2.5". Use your stock coils with them.

    I'm buying that lift as soon as I get the bank to increase my credit line.
    I looked under the Toytec vendor section and I believe he posted they were back in stock but on their website it still says backorder so I'm not sure.

    EDIT: I lied...the 5100's are for the '05+ =(

    So then 5100s up front adjusted to 2.5 and an AAL in the rear? Will this give me a level 2" lift all around?

    It is always somewhat of a crap shoot as to where you will end up. But yeah, I think with the billies set for 2.5 and using your stock coils you'll end up somewhere in that neighborhood. 2-2.5" higher in front. What shape are your rear leaf springs in now? How many miles on them? Do they have a positive arch? Flat? or Negative arch (frown)?

    My 2004 only has 28,000 original miles on it. It used to belong to a female doctor who did not beat it up...So the rear springs are still in good shape. So will an AAL in the rear set me up a level 2" if I put 5100s all around and set the fronts to 2.75". This might be a less expensive way to do what I want.

    With hat low a mileage on the springs, I would say go for it. The progressive TRD coils will eventually sag a little bit but the 5100 set at the top is a much better option that putting a spacer on top of those coils. In the rear, the stock springs will likely see the full benefit of the 2" AAL. Maybe even a little bit more.
