    I understand the 6112 is on the front, but the entire thread is filled with what to pair it with in the back: 5100s, 5160s, AAL ect.. so I didn't think it out of place to ask here. Also this is an active thread, and I thought I would get a response. Thank you by the way, as I am leaning toward the OME Dakar HD for the same reasons you mentioned. I don't mind the additional rake of lifting the front 1" and the rear 2", and I'm not looking for a plush ride so the HD pack, while stiff when empty, wont bother me. I could take a leaf out to make it a med pack if the HD is really awful.

    Anyone here put 6112s & 5160s and/or Dakar Medium duty leaf springs on a 2nd gen (or 3rd) Access cab? I just purchased a kit (6112s with the 650lb spring on #1 setting, not looking for much lift & really want a comfy ride) and I'm still curious what kind of lift I'll get in the front & the rear.

    Talked to a few people and everyone mentions the Access cab gets lifted way more than the double cabs because the access cabs are so light weight. I currently don't have any additional weight but plan on adding a bumper & winch up front & bed/headache rack and maybe rooftop tent or camper shell in the back.

    Trying to soak up as much info as possible! Thanks!

    Anyone know of 6112s in stock anywhere? @HeadStrong Off-Road, You have an ETA on these by chance?

    I’m about to pull the trigger on the Elka 2.0s or the 6112/5160s. Can’t make up my mind! :frusty:

    I am in the same boat, been casually looking for 6112's for about a month but availability is pretty limited.

    Wheelers offroad seems to have some. Or at least they do not indicate they are out of stock or back ordered.

    I can verify wheelers does not have them in stock and Lead times are around a month. Website is not current but you can call them and ask, I ordered my kit a month ago still not in... covid sucks

    Personally I have had some good things from Ebay and some horrible things from ebay. That being said......Personally I would not buy anything suspension related for my daily driver from ebay unless I KNEW WITHOUT A SHADOW OF A DOUBT that the seller was a solid business and backed it up.

    if it is the wrong part number then stay away. they do not know what they are doing. i have sold many items n ebay over the years. when i sold it was all legit and good deals however if the seller can not even get the product information correct i would always look somewhere else.
