    Do need the OME Front Shim kit and the Drive Line Vibration kits for my application?

    Not sure if this info is relevant?
    2019 Tacoma, planning to install Bilstein 5160 and 6112 and OME HD Dakars.

    I was researching the FK29 as well this week. My research indicated that for a basic 2” ish lift it may not be necessary. If you have drive line vibrations after the lift, it is something cheap and easy to try.
    If it doesn’t take care of your vibration issue you may need axel shims.

    As far as the 95PF5 if you are going with Bilstein struts, you don’t need it. They are meant for use with OME struts and are used to adjust the driver side for the classic Taco lean issue. If I am not mistaken the Bilstein struts can be adjusted to do the same thing.

    Awesome info! I wasn't sure if the Shim was needed to matter what Aftermarket brand.

    Thanks!
