    Looking to pick these up soon, just have a few questions. These are plug and play right and don’t need anything else? Also I have a leveling kit on my truck right now with stock or shocks, should I leave the leveling kit on or take it off?

    If those are coils off a stock tacoma then you may want to keep your spacer lift otherwise you'll lose your gained height when you swap these in. Even if you replace the shocks, stock coils will keep you at stock height.

    Definitely ask bro. If stock coil ask what setting. Or if they have them set at stock with aftermarket coil like OME or Eibach. Let us know so we can help

    I just got some 5100's with OME 2880 springs for my gen 1 taco. I assume I want to set them at stock setting and not preload them?

    Ok so you will need to do aal in rear. You will be nose high without anything in rear or a 1” or 1.5” block your choice. Imo do aal. Also you will need an alignment.
