    Hey guys what's goin on, been doin some searching but I cannot decide; I have some billy 5100s and Eibach coil springs that I'm finally getting around to putting on so my truck will sit level (or close to it). But I can't decide if I should leave the billys at 0 and let the coils lift it 1.6in, or if I should put the billys at .85 as well as the 1.6 from the springs?

    The front is about 2 inches lower on mine (2007 TRD-OR DCSB) and I do not mind i the nose sits a lil high, just wondering everyones opinions, or concerns on which would look best.

    Also will my alignment be able to be returned to spec with the .85 + 1.6 inches of lift (2.45in)?

    Thanks guys, sorry if this is a common or repeat question I know there are dozens of billy/eibach posts, i just don't wanna have to go back in and change it once i install.

    @2.45" you probably wanna have some UCA's ready. Everyones vehicles are different as you will find many that need them and many that didn't need them at that setting. The only reason I haven't put my coils on are because I wanna purchase some UCA's before I install the lift and the alignment shop telling me they can't adjust it without them. Its a gamble really but in my opinion stay at 1.6" or buy UCA's and increase the Billies to .85
