    Hey everyone,

    I have searched the internet as well as TacomaWorld for an answer to this and perhaps i'm just searching the wrong words.

    I bought the Fox 2.5" external res coilovers recently along with a long list of other stuff. With stock UCAs I went with the non-extended travel because I off road a lot and didn't want to worry about some kind of failure.

    There's a chance i'll be making some good money and am going to invest in some uniball UCAs soon. I have an AAL I never installed because the truck would sit funny if I did. I installed the coilovers without adjusting the height (assuming its 2"). I have read there's a way to have some sort of spacer removed upon rebuilding the coilovers to convert them to extended travel. I would also like the truck to sit higher in the front. Is this something I can do with a mechanically inclined mind or have a professional do it? Last time I had coilovers rebuilt was a pair of Icons for my old truck, after a $400 rebuild they snapped in half and the local company (TPM Racing) refused to refund me.

    If I sent them to say, Fox, to rebuild, what would be the cost without shipping if anyone can speak for that?

    Thanks
