    Hey guys!

    So long story short I bought a crappy spacer lift without doing my research when I first purchased my truck and it didn't take long to realize that that was a bad choice. Since I have upgraded to billy 5100's with Toytec coils and Light Racing control arms in the front and I just finished installing OME Dakars in the rear. At the moment I still have the extended length shocks which came with the spacer lift installed, but I would like to upgrade them Bilsteins or something similar to match the front struts. I live in Barrie Ontario, Canada so I will be purchasing from TDot Performance because the carry Bilstein and they ship for free, (shipping from the States to here is crazy!). Anyway, from what I've read I am under the impression that I will need the extended length Billy's to get the job done however I'm not sure what the measurements are for them so I'm not sure which shocks to order. Here is a link to TDot Performance's Bilstein webpage, (http://www.tdotperformance.ca/2009-toyota-tacoma-parts/brands/bilstein?pl=1&) if someone could point me in the right direction that would be awesome! Also, not opposed to OME, just not sure which model work best with the dakar springs.
