    I don't get it, why do people hate when their truck is high in the front??? personally i think its bad ass, i recently got billy 5100's and the Eibach coil springs from ToyTec, at first i had the 5100's set to 2.5, which i believe gave me 5.5 inches in the front but unfortunately the ride was HORRIBLE and my cv's were at a wicked angle. so i had to bring the shocks down.

    i'm not gonna lie, i did it cause i wanted that prerunner look. plus i'm just tryin to bring that style out here in Utah. Where all trucks are lifted sky high and are like "HEY look at me i've got a 6inch lift, but i never go offroad":brianr:

    Honest answer? Because it looks like you're carrying 2000lbs of gravel in the bed.

    One of the biggest limiting factors in our trucks' off-road performance is departure angle. So to me a lift that doesn't address that is kinda pointless.

    Not bein' a hater. You asked - I answered. It's your truck, man. Do what makes *you* happy with it.

    i couldn't get it in spec, i tried twice. camber was so far out.. plus i was worried about my cv axles being at such an angle.. oh and if i hit a bumb hard enoug the front tire would come off the ground, so know it sits at three inches

    Because it looks lame. That is NOT the prerunner look. The prerunner look is a truck with long travel that flys and goes fast offroad. Also, when your truck is way high in the front like that you are adding a lot of positive caster and your truck will drive like shit
