    I have a 2000 tacoma prerunner. I have stock suspension on the truck now. I know the shocks are done. Question is, if I put the bilsteins on the stock coils, will I still recieve the full 2.5" of lift even though the coils are worn out?
    Planning to do a 1" or 1.5" aal in rear+ the rear 5100s.

    You'll probably get some lift, but not all. Bilstein 5100's set at anything other than 0" of lift put pre-load on the coil so if the coil is worn it will probably make the front-end sag.

    Thanks. I might get replacement OEM coils to offset this problem.

    Might as well get some aftermarket ones. OME or Eibach are popular around here...
