    Dallin where in UT are you?
    Thanks for the welcome guys. Looking at the 3" lift kit with bilstein 5100 with leafs on toytec on the advice from some coworkers and from what I've seen here. Gotta say I don't know anything about lifts, but I don't want to go over 3". Any inputs?

    Serious? I live in Layton. Ever seen a truck with rockstar rims, and two monster decals on the back window? I drive around the city a lot

    The best thing to spend money on haha

    Ya same here.

    www.autoanything.com. The shipping was quick, and the prices seem to be cheaper or same price as anywhere else. Their customer service is good as well.
    Then I installed it and the throttle body spacer myself.
