    Hey everybody I'm new to TW. My name is Bennett and im 16 years old.

    Suspension:
    Bilstein 5100s all around. Fronts at .85
    Eibach Coils
    1/4'' Toytec top plate spacer on passenger side
    3/4'' Toytec top plate spacer on driver side
    Toytec 2'' AAL
    Toytec Diff drop

    Tires:
    285/75R16 Mickey Thompson MTZs

    First thing I did was get 5100s on all four corners and set the fronts at 1.75

    Body shop fixed it up good as new
    Level3_babcbdb1600295283deaaac4c07dd8c86fd33557.jpg

    After about a year, I wanted to go up to a complete 3'' lift. I ordered eibach coils, a diff drop kit, and 2'' AAL all from toytec. Went ahead and got some top plate spacers too.
    Lift_e0d27c0eeaf1c12e089e07ad15772d3ffcf6457f.jpg

    I needed some new tires to go under the lift so I decided on 285/75R16 Mickey Thompson MTZs. Got some wheel spacers because I reused my stock rims. Had to cut a little bit of plastic, but now they don't rub at all.
