    Before I order the springs and shocks, I would like to know for sure That they will level the truck out in the rear or give just a little rake. I have the 2" AAL and will be getting the eibach's and the 5100 all the way around. Also before I drop the money on this, how much better is it going to ride than the spacer lift I have now? Thanks

    I'm going to assume you've decided to set the Billys at .85...

    Did you see my pics? I have a slight rake.

    If I would have gone with 1.5" aal, it might would have been level but it will settle with time and I was worried about being nose high with time. I actually use my bed so I'm glad I went with 2" aal. Even when it settles, I'm positive I still won't be nose hight.

    The ride from a spacer lift to 5100/Eibachs is like night and day. Trust me, I had a spacer lift on my old 2006 Tacoma. My 2011 rides like a Caddy compared to it.

    Well I just placed my order. I changed my mind a good bit after talking with my dad last night. He said I should look hard at the OEM lift. So I ordered the 884 springs with all new OEM shocks front and rear, along with the CB drop, axle shims and new u bolts, also got the driver's side spacer. I just hope it does me well. Thanks for all the info.
