    Hey folks,

    Still pretty new to this forum and mods in General. I've got a 16 sport double cab. I've been learning as I mod this current truck and am starting to dig into suspension. I know there are tons of threads, but didn't want to insert myself into an existing one and change its course.

    Attached is what I was recommended from my local 4x4 garage. I had talked to them about the billy 5100's but he suggested this instead. I trust them as they gave me a great deal on KO2's and FN Fx Pro wheels, I just was hoping to hear what people think about this package/price as I have no idea where to start.

    Basically what I'm trying to get out of the lift/suspension is a small amount of lift/clearance for aesthetics and option to go with bigger tires. And also ability to take it off road. I've never really owned a vehicle that could go off road so I have not done much, but it looks fun. I do drive it to and from work everyday so daily driving suspension is also important.

    Thanks in advance!

    Front shocks/coils- 475.00
    Diff drop kit -31.00
    Add a leaf 3 leaf progressive - 210.00
    2.0 rear boss shocks -210.00
    Rear shims- 32.00

    I think toytec gives TW 10% on top of that. If not they have sales thruough the year.

    The rest of it looks like straight bullshit fluff. And you should be able to get a thrust angle alignment for less than that.

    "Premium antiseize" "3 stage clear coat/chip guard ON SHOCKS" WTF Don't opt for either of those, just more money. That is if you go with them, I would still buy everything cheap and do yourself, then bring it in for an alignment somewhere else.

    haha, thanks man, glad I asked. I was going to opt out of those two things anyway, I figured as much.

    I don't know that I'm ready to put the suspension on myself, seems like a big undertaking for a newbie.

    For when you get done with your lift: Firestone lifetime alignment $120.00, good price if you are just starting your build and continuously adding to your build. Also good to have after a few days wheeling. Just my two cents!
