    Good Morning Tacoma World.

    I have a question......

    So if I want to buy a lift that I could add to, what is your opinion about this.

    5100s all around with new springs, and an aal for ~ 2 inches.

    Then down the road when I am ready for new tires, spindles and new rear springs/blocks for another 4.

    I've kept a bike since was in High school pretty much. Currently have an FXD but don't do any trips more than an hour anymore, thinking about getting something like the FJ09 or FJ07 as a kinda dual purpose and selling the Harley.....but the Harley is paid for so Idon't really want to get rid of it but ...... decisions lol :notsure:

    Staged builds are good, upgrade as your budget allows.

    I'm running OME right now, will be Titan swapping in the future with coilovers. I'm just not sure about running around with a bulldog stance, which means Titan swapping the rear...and if I'm doing that I might as well do the 5.6L swap too...that snowballed quickly lol.

    I had 5100s in my previous truck and liked them a lot.

    well the only thing I can say is 2 might be what I stay with. I plan on getting a camper soon and a bigger lift might be more of a PITA with towing.

    Most likely it will be a pop up, nothing crazy.

    If I went with wheelers, what OME springs would I need?
