    Hello everyone! Sorry if this has been asked already couldn't find the answer on here. Ok I currently have toytec 3" spacer lift on front with stock coil and shocks I'm looking into getting an arb bumper and bilstein 5100 all around should I get tundra coils or go for hd Tacoma ones to get rid of spacer lift and keep the 3" in front?
    Sorry for no . Or , lol I'm on my phone on lunch break grammar is awful thanks in advance!

    Some stuff. Not a lot, just some.
    Go with OME coils and keep the top plate spacer.

    Coils I would get 886 for the added weight and that will give you almost 3 inch of lift also. And get old man emu front and rear shocks cause of the weight.

    Nice thanks everyone for the inputs and for the welcome, So I'll go with 882's and do you think OME is better then the bilstein 5100's and why keep the top plate?

    Forget I mentioned the top plate. The 882 should be perfect. The OME coils and shocks were designed to be used together, so technically speaking, yes they are better the OME coils and Billys.
