Shock help

Ok so I have toytec aal on its way to me and I'm trying to get a set of 5100s for the rear as well but all I see is shocks for 0 to 1 inch lift. Anyone have a link to a site for the correct shocks I need. The aal kit says 1.5 to 2 inch lift

 

The 0 to 1 will be fine as the AAL only really adds a 1/4 to 1/2 to the leaf pack.

 

Ok good to know. I was confused because the reviews on this aal said most achieve 2 inches of lift when installed is this correct?

 

Yes had them once

 

I'm have trouble understanding how adding 1/2" to the spring pack matters with the shocks. Maybe if you were measuring for u bolts it would matter. But the lower shock mounts are on the axle and the axle is being moved 2" away from the upper mount. Meaning you need 2" longer shocks. 5100's will be fine though.

 

What's your setup now

 

I never had an AAL or the standard 5100's but I do have the 5100's rated for 3-4" of lift and ran them with 4" of lift and now with 7" of lift. What your looking at will work fine.

 

Well if 2nd Gen are like 1st gen 5100's, every website you look at says something different. Wheelers says 0-3", DSM says 0-1", Toytec says 0-1.5". Bilstein says they will not work with no lift but accommodate 1-3" of lift and work best around 1-1.5" of lift. But here is the part numbers and apps from DSM.http://downsouthmotorsports.com/i-1...e-height-adjustable-shocks-4wd-prerunner.html
