    Also should i use the trd rear bilsteins or the 5100s that are available at shock wharehouse? I like the 5100s and ive heard they actually ride better that the blue and yellow 4600? I plan on ordering bisteins for the front shocks from them.

    TRD shocks are not going to be compatible with the 5-lug.
    The leaf springs are the only interchangeable parts on the suspension.

    Mostly Stock for now, 265 75 16 Falken AT3W, Tinted fronts...
    the stock TRD bilsteins will also fit the rear. the front bilstein TRD shocks wont though.

    you may be talking about the bilsteins that are built for our truck though, just make sure you get the right part #.

    as far as rear 5100 i'm not sure if you would run into trouble with them since they are meant for lift on a 6 lug right? I think they would be too long unless you had like 3" of lift in the rear. My theory may be incorrect but it kind of sounds right? :notsure:

    im using them on my 1st gen. ride real nice compared to a standard aal. and 5100s will work if they are stock replacement for a prerunner and not extended travel.

    @5LUGTACO
    On the 31x10.50x15 on your 5 Lug (I have one too) did you have to do any spacers and or lift? Considering keeping my steelies and going w/ these tires and set up if I can replicate what you have. Please let me know - TIA
