    Intake, exhaust, lift. Typical stuff.
    Very skinny but im sure they come in diff diameters

    The cvs dont look bad. I got some rebuilt axles with high angle boots & at $32 a boot they do a very good job. Im still planing on a diff drop though.

    Eibach makes the toytech coils specifically for them. Don't bother getting them from anyone else. I tried. And it was a mess

    I heard that the Fox COs only come with 620# coils and heavier ones cannot be substituted. It was Sonny at DSM that said that. That sucks if true. 620 is not enough if you carry the weight we do.

    When I exchanged emails getting quotes I was told I could get 700lb king coils..course I was asking about 8" foxes though..

    And actually it's only 600lb. Toytech eibachs are 620

    get the 5100 set from DSM, they have an extended length for bigger lifts

    though, I ran stock-length 5100's with my AAL and still got lots of flex from it...idk how though

    What places have you been looking at?

    What are you going to use to lift the rear and how much lift?

    I did find this: I also looked on DSM and found this but it says for stock height/no lift in rear:
    http://downsouthmotorsports.com/i-9...-5125-series-rearsride-height-adjustable.html


    as far as rear lift i'm not sure yet. I was thinking just doing a 2in block because i have some laying around. my last tacoma i flipped the overload spring over and made some homemade shackles for about 2.5 inches in the rear. I don't have the money for a full leaf pack right now so whatever i do will be temporary.
