    I'll be gathering my truck around late April, and fixing it too. I should be ready in May.

    I placed my order for front and rear Bilstein 5100's along with a few extras (drivers side spacer, bushing kit and sway bar relocate kit) and will hopefully have everything by the end of the week. My dealership is placing the order for the TSB leaf springs so that will be taken care of by them.

    For them to install the 5100's they want to charge me $560! Plus an alignment for $100 on top of that. I checked with attitude performance and they weren't much better...they want $425 to do the work.

    So I figured I would see if anyone here in the northern Chicagoland area might want to help me out...and make a few bucks on the side. If anybody feels like helping out please give me a holler. Thanks in advance. :)

    Hello! Anyone looking for a deal on 4 used TRD shocks check out my For Sale thread. They are off an '09 with roughly 20k miles, in good condition. Thanks for looking!

    I ended up getting my 5100's installed by Midas up this way in McHenry. Also up here in this area is a place called Performance Unlimited, and closer to Chicago is Attitude Performance. Spring Align is also another option that I'm sure can help you out...they have a few locations I believe.

    I will be there that weekend for sure. There is a Toyota event going on that weekend and it will be a good chance to check out everything from stockers to extreme trucks, I am sure there will even be some nice '40's there as well.
