    pretty sure this has been asked before but I haven't been able to find the answer,

    Will installing 5100's all around void the Toyota warranty?

    just
    How could it... I guess they won't warantee the stock parts but you have new ones..

    Regarding the part number for the billies.. I said to myself f-it went over to Headstrong and ordered a new Bilstein suspension with EMU springs and AAL..

    Here's a discussion a few of us had before:

    https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads...alership-service-writer.432611/#post-12476973

    What I came away with from that conversation is that the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act of 1975 should protect you, but the problem is that they (Toyota Corporate) can deny a claim for about anything they want to, and you would have to fight it out with them in arbitration or hire a lawyer for legal action. The question you would have to ask yourself is, are you willing to do that?

    Modify at your own risk.

    Where did you get your Deavers ?? I just bought the whole kit and kaboodle from Headstrong and I think all the struts and shock pricing was $310 or thereabouts to my door.

    So got the front finished up this evening, Ill get pictures tomorrow. However I got a question for those who did the 5100' and coils up front. How close is your tire to the UCA? I did a 2.5" up front and am running a 267/75-16 and the tire is very close to the UCA. So much so that I'm worried in a hard flex scenario it may rub...bad. I'm heading to a off road park Sunday, so Ill find out then. Just curious if others are noticing this as well.
