    Just ordered new shocks and coils all the way around. Went the standard Bilstein 5100 setup with OME 2885 coils for the front and OME 2895's for the rear. This should give me 2" all the way around. I ordered from Wheelers which I've heard has mixed reviews lately. They've got a good deal on the whole setup right now with 25% off so I pulled the trigger. Hard to beat a complete, assembled setup for under $1k.
    Now for wheels and tires...I need pictures of similar setups so I can get some ideas!

    I've never had issues with Wheelers. Sounds like a solid set up, somewhat similar to my Tacoma at least for the front portion. Rides stiff but also nice.

    I originally ordered the Bilstein 5100 setup with OME 2885 coils for the front and OME 2895's but since then I went back and changed it- still using 5100's but with stock coils now and a cornfed spacer in the rear. Wheelers has been great to work with.
