    hi all, just picked up a 2014 DCSB TRD Sport, wanting to get a lift on it, i had seen this"http://toyteclifts.3dcartstores.com/3-lift-kit-with-Bilstein-5100-Height-Adj-Coilovers_p_364.html" and read a little about it just wanting to know if anyone has run it and how they liked it and if they use UCA's with it. I just want to do everything right from the start. It's my DD, do alot of city and highway driving with some offroading on the weekends. I don't haul too much, if i do its just the occasional quad or dirtbike. Any helpful hints would be appreciated. thanks!

    Since it looks like it is a 3" lift, I would suggest getting UCAs. They are typically recommended for anything over 2.5". BUT, some guys are fine without them, others are not. I bought UCAs from the start as I wanted my alignment within specs and not have any future issues.

    Just a side note, opt out of getting the diff drop. See below:

    Front windows matched tint, weathertech front husky rear mats, K & N CAI, Borla cat-back exhaust, 265/70/17 Goodyear Wrangler Authorities, fog light anytime, 5100s up front set at 1.75" on stock coils,
    Great lift, and definitely get the UCAs if you have the money for them. Then you have the peace of mind that your alignment can be done right and you won't have oddly worn tires.

    x2 on opting out of the diff drop kit. Seen a lot of people on here who don't like it or have had more problems rather than benefits out of it.
