    Hello, I have seen many threads on putting 5100s i fron at 1.75 and it adds a little lift. If you get them for the rear do they lift it up at all (without the tsb or aal)? If so how much?

    Thanks Eric

    Hehehe......no lift in rear by 5100's.
    Their job in the rear is to just dampen.

    Tacoma uses coilover suspension in the front and the front 5100's have an adjustable "spring seat" for the front coils. That's how they can lift.....adjust the spring seat up.
    Tacoma uses a leaf spring rear and all the 5100's can do there is to dampen the leaf spring system.
