    Not to hijack the post but I have a question relating to front end lift.

    I do not do any aggressive off road, 4wd is mostly used in winter conditions with ice/snow and summer I drive some fire access roads.

    Stock OR, I put Sumosprings (blue) in the back, very happy w/ them and don't want to change this. Was perfectly content with everything.

    Added Mobtown sliders, 180lb for the pair, spread across the length of the truck, only issue is that isn't enough weight w/ the bump stop to budge the ass end but it is enough to pull the stock front down a tad. I want to regain that drop.

    I'm not in favor of spaces either, even though they'd likely do the trick. Can/should I get away with JUST Bilstein 5100 in the front, w/ out coils? They are $199 which I can justify.

    I wouldn't mind having them in place and 1-2 years out when my tires are ready for replacement bumping up a size and ultimately going with a full 2"sh lift all around. But right now all I am concerned about is regaining my loss in the front, and it is cosmetic only.

    Thoughts?

    Just do this. It'll lift you up 3/4-1" and won't degrade ride quality AT ALL.

    Drat!! That's what I've been trying to tell the OP to do too, but just won't listen or missed it. These are the ideal solution for just that tiny bit of front lift. Even people who off road will add these to their suspension to get that little bit of lift.

    Exactly. This is as big as I'd go, unless the truck stayed on road the whole time.

    Had a 04 TRD 4X2 w/2" front spacers, aftermarket shackles in the rear,,,,,,never had an issue. If my brain works at all, I think I had 265/70/16 tires on stock rims
    Just make sure you get some metal ones and follow torque specs.
    I went through some shit, but not like rock climbing shit, no Baja'n----------Unless it's to Baja Cafe in Deerfield beach fl.
    Got a 17' TRD 4X4 now and also lookin forward to 2" spacers in the front and 1" blocks on the rear.
    I want to level it out and give er' a 1" overall lift/level

    Then I Guess I gotta fill the space with some rubber
