    Don't those coils give 2.5-3 inches of lift?

    Yeah but that's the bilsteins setting. Set at the lowest setting with the toytec coils you should be at 2.5-3 inches of lift already setting the bilsteins on Higher settings would give you more than 3 inches. Just confused cause you said you lowered it down to stock height but it should still be lifte 2-3 inches because of those coils and

    On the toytec site, when you order the "full lift kit" it says that maximum achievable lift is 2.5-3"

    From my measurements on the first clip that stock height, second clip is 1.5" lift, and 3rd clip was 2.75" of lift on my truck before I installed bigger tires. That's where I'm coming from, every set is a bit different I guess

    I see what your saying but with that toytec coil set at the lowest setting on the bilsteins you should be lifted 2.5-3inches. If you set the coils on the shocks on any higher setting then the lowest one you'd have more than the 3 inches. Either way the truck looks sick I was just curious on that I had the same coil and shock setup not to long ago

    Thanks a lot! I actually didn't have to fill anything. I ended up with a bed that doesn't have flares and got prerunner fenders that also didn't have flares, so didn't have to fill. I love that it's all clean. Just need to come up with a way to keep all those cut edges protected, especially with the vinyl. Any ideas?

    Couple stretching pics! As well as a spot I got high centered on a short wheeling trip with a buddy of mine on the red Tacoma. Drove up the hill faster than my spotter could run and didn't want to lose momentum. Quick push back let me back down a bit and find a different line off to the side.

    The last pic is a decal that I designed and cut. $50 shipped, message me if you're interested.

    Sick build all around. I love how clean it is, and how your bumpers are very low profile. Good job!

    It looks like you used the same method I did, fender trim from the auto parts store.

    Where'd you get that tailgate decal for the red truck? I like that and want one.

    edit: Oh I see it's on your new truck as well. Is that the vinyl wrap?
