    I was looking at the head strong coil/bilstein kit for my 2018 Trd Sport 4x4. I don’t know what coil I need or if I need the Deaver single AAL or the HS 3 leaf AAL. I want to have a 2-3 inch lift and have my truck sit level. I will also be having a SOS Concepts hybrid bumper that I think weighs around 80lbs with NO winch. If I do order this kit will I also need to get a diff drop? Will I need extended break lines or anything like that?

    You should change the title of the post to some thing like "Suspension Advice Please". "Help" is a reserved word.

    You need advice, not help. Please remove help from the title. Go to thread tools at the top of post 1 and edit title.

    You are looking at an entire lift kit, coil overs with 700lb springs, new leaf pack (hd if carrying any weight in the rear). Shouldn't need extended brake lines and the diff drop may or may not be needed to keep CV joints in proper angle

    Why do members use this word on titles? It's like yelling "Fire!"

    If you keep the lift to 2” your CV angle(s) should be ok and shouldnt need extended brake lines up front.

    Only adding a 80 pound bumper? If you’re adding a set of skids and sliders they will add ~300 pounds quick. Then consider a 650-700 lb springs on the coilovers.

    And it was the wrong way to go about it. Talk to Marie and buy your kit.
