    Hello,
    I'm new to this forum and also just bought a used 2015 tacoma sr5 4x4
    I'm going to modify the truck piece by piece myself, I'm using the truck for work and some off roading on the weekends for camping
    Starting with the rear since for some reason someone put a 1 inch block lift in the front if I installed just the ome leaf springs, what else needs to be replaced? Do I need longer brake hoses, etc?

    A little of this and a little of that.
    Welcome to TW and congrats on the ‘15 truck.
    I have Dakar OME rear leaf springs and did replace my brake lines with +2” longer ones. I haven’t ever tested full flex, and don’t really plan to, but didn’t want to chance having a brake line stretch and tear.

    They recommend extended length shocks with those leaf packs. I got the Bilstein 5160's. I did not have to get extended brake lines but you may want to reconsider that decision if you off road and flex a lot.
