    Question. Can I use 5100’s in my stock springs. Truck has about a 2” lift already. I guess I need to crawl under to look and see what it has. I saw the 2” block when doing the brakes.

    So does anyone know if I can use the stock springs with 5100s? I have asked this question several different times on different threads. If not cool. I would like to know so I can order appropriately. Thanks

    I just saw this 2014 reg cab with 6600 miles for sale on FB. It's practically new! And of course it's the ultra rare TRD Sport model! 119682163_10219027697468126_7939641132237237552_o.jpg

    Added 5100s using the stock springs on the 3rd notch for now till I can get OME springs. My old shocks were toast 12-year-old OEMs. They had no pressure or spring back. Explains the bouncy ride. The ride is really good for being the stock springs on the 3rd notch. Getting an alignment Monday. Still waiting for 1.5" wheelers progressive 3 add a leaf to come in.

    It looks fairly level. My measuring tape says the back is about 1/4" higher in the rear. Would the progressive 3 leafs add too much to the rear? It almost plays with the eyes a bit looking like the front is higher but my tape says otherwise.

    It looks like it isn't an actual trd sport. The decal looks stuck on.

    The pictures show front driveshafts.

    If he sells it for $26.5 I'm slapping a trd logo on mine and throwing it on their marketplace for sure.

    Hey clc clc, your truck is awesome, I'm in the market for a good sturdy and simple roof rack, mostly to mount a kayak or cargo basket on. Care to share your setup?

    So your cap has tracks in it? My a.r.e. top doesn't have any tracks/channels so I'm trying to figure the best system. Thought about getting tracks so I can adjust the bars but might just get some fixed brackets if they are cheaper.

    Yeah it has tracks. Im not sure how hard it would be to add after the fact. I like this setup but not sure which way I'll go for my subaru. Thule bars cost $400 I think.
