    0000197_old-man-emu-ometac05lksb-2nd-gen-toyota-tacoma-2-suspension-lift-kit_550.jpg
    Option 2:

    3" Bilstein 5100 all around with coil overs in the front and a spacer in the rear

    I'd go with the OMEs. That leaf pack will be smoother than a spacer and will increase your hauling capability.

    I'm currently regretting my decision because my coils are too soft. I need to upgrade to 700lbs spring rate OME 886s, and those don't work well on Bilstein 5100s.

    I like the idea the coils and leafs were all designed for the shocks with the ARB kit.

    Well a saga ends and the Tacoma got turned into a 2012 Prius and a 1998 Checy S10 4x4 with the 4.3 Vortec V6.

    Book value was too ridiculous to not sell it, now I got options, haha

    Sold the taco for half of what it was new 9 years old and 167k miles, 50% residual value at almost a decade :oldglory:
