    Usually yes. The dakars will be marked with a +,-, or 0. + means above spec so that would go on drivers side, - means below spec so that would go on passanger. Mine were marked + and 0. I still have a little taco lean in the rear with a full tank of gas.

    just looked over the email shipping confirmation and packing list for the OME Full lift kit.

    though i did not order the trim packer... they added it on there for me, i knew toytec weren't dumbasses.

    trim packer is on the list maybe 3-4 items down

    good to go

    still waiting for it to get here

    Yes the Dakars are heavy & it's good to have an extra set of hands or two.

    You will definitely want some help with the Dakars. I started putting mine in by myself waiting for my friend to get there and they are heavy! I managed to get the old pack out and started on the Dakar but luckily my help arrived. I did the fronts by myself (disassembled and re used top hats like a dummy. Should have spent the extra money to get them assembled...) used lots of "creative leverage" enjoy your new lift! I came from a spacer lift and was very pleased! Much better ride than stock as well.

    You might want to consider losing your sway bar. I took mine off when I installed the lift and I like the ride much better with it off.
