    So Iv been around here I keep low key and mostly just read. Joined because I'm buying a new lift.

    My old setup is kicking the bucket. Skyjacker pucks in the front and rear shackles.

    Plan is to go with 5100's front and rear with dakar leaf packs and new springs in front. Only problem is the jacker lift has screwd up my top plate. Where can I order a new top plate and studs? That isn't a pos...

    Tried search but my drop down search doesn't work on my phone.

    Thanks stu

    I got a set from rockauto.com. Both cost like 25 or something. I think they were Gabriel or Monroe, they were very sturdy

    Thanks for the help
    One last question. will I need longer studs on the drivers side? I plan on putting on a 1/4 spacer to help with the taco lean and am unsure if the studs on the new top plate will have enough threads.

    Nobody answered this, but I would just avoid spacers all together. The Taco lean is hardly noticeable and if you go with the Toytec/Eibach coils for the 3" lift up front with the 5100s and then in the rear use the 5100s (if between 0-1.5" lift) or 5125s if higher than 1.5" of lift with the Dakar leafs & AAL then you should be good.

    That lift looks awesome, just search around this forum and you'll be convinced. I've got that lift up front and love it. I'm just waiting on my new All-Pro Expedition Leaf Springs to ship out in the mail.
