    Okay guys and gals, I need some help here.

    I need advice on the rear lift.

    So far I have ordered:
    5100's all around
    Eibach springs for front
    Rear is what I need help with. I have the 5100's for the rear and now need to know what I should do as far as leaf springs.


    I want the truck to sit level no more than 1" higher in the rear.

    what is my best option for the rear in order to lift the truck a bit and still making it sit level?

    Don't want to go with the Dakars due to being much higher in the back.


    any advice would be appreciated!

    Welcome to tacoma world! Great lift option! I am running the same thing with the toytec 2" Shackle in the back. Mine sits good. I also believe they sell a new adjustable shackle that you can change the lift amount. Thats the cheap way unless you want to do a added leaf or new leaf packs themselves.
