    I will keep looking we won't be doing any off-roading we do that with our 16 4runner. The truck is just a work truck so maybe 5100s will work.

    Here's a link to the extended 5100s from Wheelers Offroad They have both options there, I would pick the ones they mention for the 3" lift

    "Bilstein Part #'s BE5-D559/D560. These Bilstein 5100 shocks are the original 5100's that have been around for years offered exclusively through Race Car Dynamics. These shocks are a little longer than the newer 33- series shocks and are good for those 1.5"-3" lifts."

    Would these work with OME 881 coils? That's what we have on now. They should yea?

    Those are just rear shocks, for the front you can use the front 5100s with 881s yes. I had that setup for awhile

    881s on a 3.4l extended cab give about 1.5" of lift, at least it did on mine. It's recommended to keep the 5100s on the front set to 0, let the 881s do the lifting. If you want more lift then I'd look at the 882s

    Call The Notch. Those guys have always been solid and on your island. They ship stuff here in containers so price isn’t too major

    We have tried to call them and no call back. We have gone to them before they did our 4runner lift and messed that up and we had to take it back. I feel like if you know them they are good if not your not priority.

    Dakars ride horrible with the 5100s and the B110 extended 5100s just heads up. They do a lot better with the OME nitros or the 5160s. Rode with all 4 shocks and these are just IMO.

    Ok will check it out thanks

    We have the OME 881 Coils but looking towards the Bilstein shocks

    Hard to get the full kit shipped to Hawaii. We had a hard enough time shipping the leaf springs and coils here

    Prehaps call @Wheeler's Off-Road Inc , They were great to work with and know product very well. I ended up getting my 5100's from them.

    @HawaiiLife808 100% what Sebz said. Call and let them know you're coming from the TacomaWorld forum. Whatever you need, I'm sure they will be able to get you taken care of.
