a before I buy lift question

About to buy the bilstein 3 inch lift kit with 5100's adjustable coilovers and thinking of getting a TSB add a leaf in the back over the Dakar complete lift spring kit. My mechanic likes the complete kit over the add a leaf, thinks more compatible, less strain on things but I worry the ride will be to stiff on the road, where I spend the most time. Got a 2012 4 door long bed taco, rarely have a heavy load, almost no towing. Opinions before I buy from toytec? thanks!

 

i also suggest just getting rid of any toyota leaf pack and replacing with the dakars. i have dakars on my reg cab, they rode rough at 1st but with proper break in they ride great now. i also have a cap. if you are looking to save few bucks you can skip the ome or billies rear shocks, i run skyjacker h7045 rears and they are a great match to the dakars.

 

I have the 3 inch toytec adj with the dakars in the back and the 5160s. I love the setup. I'm glad I didn't get the add a leaf.

 

no regrets with my wheelers 3leaf aal. rides great, works great

 

Deavers j66 10 pack, I'm running an icon 2.5rr, rides great.

 

thanks, sounds like gonna pull the trigger, and spend the extra on dakars. AAL sounds ok but I plan on dying in this truck, and its just money. college is paid for, its all about me

 

All Pro makes great leaf packs as well.
