    I saw on other threads that people were getting Billstein 5100's for like $200-300 on their 3rd gens, but I can only find them listed for around $500. Where is the best place to buy them? I want like a 2/1" or 3/2" lift.

    Don’t get FleaBays, at least call Headstrong first, their posted prices dont always list as high as those on the website if you are a TW member...

    $339 for front and rear 5100 bundled (see bottom of page) @HeadStrong Off-Road shipped, with good customer service and technical advice whenever you call them, even if you don’t buy theirs!

    Not to thread jack. But do you guys recommend doing the ECGS needle bearing while lifting? I read on a lot of forums the stock one fails once lifted. And cause vibrations.... I’m going to order the 5100’s front and back. For my 18 OFF road Tacoma. Are the stock springs fine? Or any recommendations for closest to Oem comfort springs? I read 885 ome springs are a good combo but not sure if springs are even necessary
