    Traded the 2015 TRD Pro 6spd Supercharged on a PowerWagon and could not be happier. My 2011 Tacoma with the TX Baja package (Added by me) is still treating me great. My 1985 Toyota never skips a beat.
    I am loving the BAJA suspension since i installed it, and i did my moms truck about a month later.

    I fixed the front being low with preload spacers from wheelers, so far no issues. It rides just a hair stiffer but not bad at all, and its not in danger of anything like a top plate spacer.

    BTW i ordered both in SEPT i think, 1550 or something like that each, i ordered them twice the first time at 1260 or something, its in my old thread but toyota cancelled the order. I called and ordered at the normal price.

    I just installed the Baja suspension kit on my '09 DCLB Sport 4wd. I was able to get it from a local dealer parts dept. He said he had to give the VIN off a Baja edition truck they had sold. TRDparts4u (Toyota Dallas) also had it for the same price. So far I am very happy with the ride, still smooth but more firm on big bumps. I have no vibes and my CV angles look pretty good still. I got 2" of lift in the front from the TRD Baja coils. I added a leaf and had the whole TSB leaf pack re-arced with the add a leaf at a local spring shop to give me 2" of lift in the rear. Measurements now from the center of hub to fender flare are 22 3/8" front and 23 1/2" rear. This set up seemed better for me than adjustable height 5100's because of the increased travel and less spring preload and the rear can still carry weight but doesn't ride stiff unloaded like a Dakar leaf pack. There are plenty of Baja haters but the factory set-up appealed to me and I prefered a 2" lift over 3" (stock upper control arms, no diff drop, etc).
