    I just got my Toytec lift today and my mechanically inclined friend just got a job in Tampa. I'm looking for installation of new leaf springs, new rear shocks, and new front shocks. The fronts have the springs already on the shocks. I'd like to do it tomorrow (Sunday) as its my daily driver. I've got minimal tools and no garage. I figured I would rather pay someone on these forums than someone else. I could even drive it over to Orlando if necessary. I just need it done right. Interested? Text me six oh two 999 three four seven four.

    Timbo - thanks for the invite. If I can't find someone a little closer I will definitely take you up on the offer. I'd like to do this Saturday in case something goes wrong as its a daily driver. I'd buy you all he Mountain Dew and pizza you could want :).
    I bought the toytec adjustable front shocks w/ assembled Eibach coils, rear billies, differential drop kit, and Dakar rear leafs. The kit is supposed to have all the bolts, bushings, etc. I have not even opened it up (and wouldn't know if something was missing) as I was hoping to install it today.

    I'll buy the Papa John's but it won't be this weekend after all. Timbo, you're the man even though I have to work and can't make it. I know, I'm a puke for punking out, but boss man says you gotta work, then you gotta work.

    Tim did bring up something though. The boss package with Dakar spring replacements don't come with brake line extensions. Will I need them with Bi!stien 5100's and the new Dakar's?

    how much lift are you doing in the rear, i don't think you'll need them unless you're going more than 4''ish

    I'm sure if it requires the longer lines then it would say in the packet. No problem man I understand.

    OP you ever get your lift installed? I'm in Melbourne and am just waiting on my coilovers and have been wondering if I should attempt this or pay for installation. I got an Icon with new UCAs.

    Got the lift done (finally). Now I got a real problem. My drivers side door will not open. Not electronically, nor with the key, or inside nor outside handle. Looks like it tries to but the button just won't raise enough. Does anyone have any experience and/or source for door latch/lock repair /replacement? The dealer gave me an estimate of $699.00 to replace the outside handle and the internal "assembly". Found replacement door handles on Ebay, but no "Assemblies".
    It's not a pretty sight to see a 6' 1" fat old guy crawling over his center console and passenger seat to get out of his truck.
    Help!!!
