    trust me, there are plenty of dumb ass people who have LT and have no idea what they hell they are talking about :D but thanks

    wheelers charges that much money because it's the most convenient way for assembling the shocks. they show up to your door as ready to go as possible. no need to mess with a spring compressor, just swap parts

    totally your call

    A few bolts are different.
    lol... The toytec ultimate coilovers are infinitely adjustable. 5100's and Eibach's only are not (3 position adjustment, .85", 1.75" , 2.5"). you also get aluminum top plates and all hardware. They are not over priced for what you get.

    yeah, but how many people wake up in the morning and say "hmmm, i want my truck to have 3" of lift today", and crank their shit down and then the next day say "i guess i'll roll around with only 1" of lift today" and change it again...

    people set it once and call it good.

    they may be fully adjustable, but they still are fully crap too.

    I couldn't agree with you less.

    I got adjustable coilovers because I knew I would be adding lots of weight (winch, bumper, skids) I have adjusted mine more than once. If I had had to get a new set of heavier springs every time I added more armor to the front of my truck it would have been the biggest pain in my ass ever.

    Where have you seen a better adjustable set of coilovers for $799 for non LT applications?

    but you didnt buy toytec ;)

    the OP would be far better off spending his money on a product that has some design and testing behind it. not a bunch of different parts that are thrown together and the price being jacked up for "adjustablity"

    for $800 the OP could get some 2.0 SAW CO's or for a measly $75 more he could get 2.5 Camburg CO's... just saying.

    i dont want him to spend money and be dissappointed with his purchase, like i have heard many people are when the buy toytec "coilovers"

    Nope, I didnt. Had connections at Skyjacker when I got mine.

    Those Saw's are a good price for sure.
