    Look at build!
    The mastercrafts i have now do very well offroad and i have about 30k on them and id say they still look to have about half tread left and they wear evenly when rotated every 5k or so, I would highly recommend them if you can find em!

    After reading this thread I feel like a clutz... I already have the toytec ultimate coilover. Instead of going the route yall took hence spring/shock rebuild.. But to my real question. What else would I need for my lift after I have already purchased coilover, Ome leafs, wheelers greasable shackles, wheelers bushings, lr ucas, diff drop, lower ball joints, sway and rack bushings???

    I have the Toytec Coilovers too, I really like them myself. The adjustability is great. You would need a lift for the rear which could be lifted many different ways. The best way would be a leaf pack and new shocks. I have the OME Dakar leaf pack with bilstein 5100s. Any more information about your truck?

    the happiest consensus seems to be the 5100 right?

    Yeah, a lot of people run 5100s and that's what I'm running as well. I've heard the OME rear shocks are pretty good as well.

    6 in one hand, half dozen in the other right haha... that whole setup is pretty much a bolt and go correct besides alignment and such or am I missing anything... trim packer for my ghetto lean stuff like that? Or is that just unnecessary adds

    Yep it's all bolt on, and you won't need the trim packer. The trim packer is for the driver side "taco" lean and you can just adjust your toytec c/os to compensate for the lean. The only other thing you may need would be the exhaust relocation bracket so your exhaust clears the leaf springs, but I just chopped my exhaust instead.

    The only thing I didn't see mentioned was an extension bracket for the brake proportioning valve arm. You can buy or make one pretty easy. Adjust the arm up, the same amount as the rear lift you end up getting.
