    Looks good, What do you have the front set to? TSB in the back?

    2" Toytec AAL with no TSB. 5100's all around with the fronts set at 0.85 with the eibach spring. Got 2.5" in the front, and 2.25" in the back on a d-cab 4x4 short box. Much better than stock!

    Man I hope I didn't make a bad decision. I purchased the 5100s set at .85 w/ eibach springs and a 1.5 AAL w/o the TSB. This was recommended by the guys at TOYTECH to level my truck. I haven't installed it yet. What are your thoughts? Should I swap the 1.5" AAL for the 2"?

    What are your pre install measurements? Mine were 35" on the front measured through the hub, and 37" in the back. I liked the rake my truck had as it was perfect when I had stuff in the back, and I wanted to keep it that way, just higher... Do you want rake, or you want it flat? Do you put weight in the back...haul anything?

    I measured pretty close to what you have. 35.5" on the front and 36.75" on the rear. I do want it flat, but not the "bro-nasty" look. I don't haul much. Maybe a few duffel bags every now and then.

    I have eibachs 1.6 and 5100s set at .85. I plan on getting an aftermarket front bumper. I'm going to want to keep the same height (2.5ish) so what do you think is my best option with this added weight? I'm getting an alcan leaf pack with 2" lift in rear and want to keep front end as level as possible.

    I used the search option like everyone screams about. Plus 2010 was a good year for me.

    I'm asking if I can get away with billies and the eibach 650 with a steel front bumper no winch. I'd rather not drop a ton of $$. Since I just bought a ton of shit for this truck
