    Hello Tacoma World!

    I recently upgraded to Bilstein 5100 series shocks in the front and rear of my truck with plans installing a drop kit afterwards. After purchasing the URD Drop Kit I quickly realized an issue with the shock sleeves fitting over the new shocks (should've read the fine print:annoyed:)

    Does anyone have a remedy for this issue or know where to get a sleeve that fits the shocks for the drop kit? I still have the stock shocks but would prefer not to switch back to them

    I know there aren't many street taco's on here but any suggestions or insight will help.

    Thanks!

    I have designed a kit that will do just what you're intending, I've had all the parts for over a year but haven't gotten around to actually installing it yet. Basically though, to answer your question, I had to get new sleeves machined at a local shop.
