    As a long standing forum lurker I already know this has been covered but this is my hard earned money at stake here

    With literally months of research I’m still a bit lost. Hoping to get some answers here

    My budget is around 2k.
    I have had my eyes on fox level 1 kit or the 6112/5160 bilstiens

    I want 3 inch lift in the front and level with the back. So I’m thinking 1.5 AAL now I’m stuck on what to do for struts and coilovers. I live in Colorado andwheel heavily and often load the back with a few 100lbs of gear. Any links that will help or answers or experience wouldbe greatly appreciated! Thanks everyonethis is my first post on Taco world!!

    Are you sure you researched for months? Lol
    Go to the suspension sub forum and lose yourself in all the chaos of options to choose from haha. I did for 6months....:anonymous:

    I will say I wouldn't bother with fox 2.0 unless they were 2.5. 6112/5160 are bigger and have a rear resi, so they don't even compare to fox 2.0.

    Just talked about the 6112 this morning...

    If you carry a bunch of weight in the back like you say it would be worth it to get a new leaf pack that can handle the weight instead of an AAL. If you want 3 inches up front you are going to need to factor in a set of new UCA's as well to make sure you can dial in the alignment.
