    I was dead set on ordering OME 885s, bilsteins, AAL, and UCAs. Meanwhile Toyota is taking their sweet time getting my new leaf pack (previous owner didn't take care of recall) so I've had time to think more than I should about my choice but at the same time it's giving me time to save. Besides the kit I thought I was set on, what are some other sub or around $1500 options?

    depending on how tall you are going, you could do bilstein 6112s/5160s with dakar leafs and if you don't go too tall you won't need upper control arms so that should be around 1500

    Then most people would say you wouldn't need UCA's. I got them anyway and I am at around 2.5"

    UCAs don't only help with alignment, they also aid articulation on lifted trucks. Well worth the expense IMO.
