    4WP sucks for everything besides buying from them...

    If you get it, any reputable shop should be able to do the instal, it's relatively simple

    Yeah they tried selling me a revtek lift.

    And I probably would have cause I don't know much about offroad suspension. But thanks to TW and a quick search I found out real quick that revtek sucks.

    Thanks TW

    Looks good! I like black trucks with the 951's...
    And 951's on KM2's were actually what I was going to get... :spy:

    Thanks man! I like the 951s but honestly, if I had to do it again, I would get something different, EVERYBODY has them. The KM2s, can't beat them

    Methods, Red Labels, and other bro stuff.
    i have a front 3" spacer lift on stock coils (it was there when i bought it) and am looking to upgrade to eibachs/bilsteins.

    Do you think i would see a increased lift even though they are both 3"?

    I have a doublecab 4cyl prerunner, do you think i would see a full 3" of lift with eibachs/bilsteins?

    I had the same spacer lift before i put the Eibachs and 5100's. After i put them on, i got 3-3.5" of lift. But the coils will settle down to 3" eventually.

    You would get more lift because you have a I4. Since the eibachs are 650lb coils, you'd be getting more than we are.

    I'm sure you would definitely get a little more lift than you have now because your coils have worn a little and sagged down and if you replace that with new coils and Bilstein's they would be fresh and have no sag.. as Jr97 said, they'll settle a little but should be right at 3" in about 6~ months
