    If I go for the front adjustable coil over kit with shocks, what rear lift would you recommend?

    still an aal. Stay away from blocks. I actually run 285/75/16 tires and I bought the 3" lift All Pro leaf packs. At first I kept my rear stock with just the rear tsb and those tires rubbed the fenders. An aal will work fine too. But I threw those leaf packs on and it helps. My back currently sits about 1/2" higher in the rear with my coilovers set at 3"

    Thats good. For coilovers I reccomend fox, king, icon, and camburg/sway a ways. Right now I still have the OME rear shocks but I will be upgrading to the Fox rear resis. They are adjustable. I also like my fox coilovers because they are adjustable as well. If you get the setup you are saying you will be very pleased :)

    Here is my opinion, These come with the ultimate lift that toytec sells. They are good. But I noticed that a lot of people that have these have ended up upgrading in the future to one of the coilovers that I listed above. If you are going to get coilovers I say get a better set. If you want, even look in the for sale section for used ones if you dont want to pay for new.
