    PSUTaco did install shims, OZ didnt. I had pm'd him to see if he did and he said he used the CB drop but not the shims. PSUTaco has pics in his build thread showing the shims installed.

    I just had Eibach coils installed along with OME Dakars :) I love how it turned out.
    I set Billys @ .85 (second setting). I also have Billys in the rear.

    I thought anything past a 2" of lift, it was almost a guarentee you would need UCA's. Im looking at the same lift but i want to avoid the control arms at all costs.

    No, at 2" you most likely will be able to avoid getting new UCA's. At 2.5" you're pushing it (although some have pushed it this far and been fine without new UCA's) and 3" you should definitely get them.

    How big is that gaping hole in your wallet ??


    1st or 2nd gen. no matter, you coulda thrown on 2 old Ford or Chevy springs (just an example) per side, forget the AAL & pretty much gotten what you're looking for.... about $50 - $75 bucks, just another option

    Not bad considering I've been buying these parts for four months now haaa.

    its more of a small constant leak instead of a hole in the wallet.

    To continue the leaking wallet... i'm thinking I might go with spacers, so I dont have super rake... suggestions?

    Does anyone sell a combined but mixed set? 1/4 and 1/2 to give a bit of lift and correct the taco lean?

    Someone correct me if I'm wrong but I think this one from Toytec has a 1/2 and 1/4 spacers along with the extended studs:
