    Nice! def. go with the bilsteins man! I had a spacer lift and the ride sucked on road. I could feel every bump! I quickly upgraded! so try to stay away from spacers and go with bilsteins or even a coil lift like OME springs.

    Yep! correct. Its farely easy. The only difficult part is having to compress the spring. You could have a local shop put the struts together for you with the new bilsteins set at 2.5" for farely cheap. other wise you have to rent a spring compressor.
    Not sure if theres a write-up on here for the install. You might want to search....

    i got the billy from DownSouthMotor for just under $300, and the 881's and aal are listed on Toytec. I also had to install the extended brake line from Toytec as well.
