    Bilstein 6112 front struts and 5100 rear shock absorbers
    How’s it going everyone,
    I just bought my 2016 tundra and the first thing I want to do is put Bilstein 6112’s at the highest level which is around 2.5ins in front. I’m also adding the 5100’s to the back suspension. My question is do I need to get a diff drop kit it my truck is 2WD and I don’t plan on doing much off roading. If so what brand would y’all suggest.

    No. Diff drop id for the front differential in a 4x4. You could need a carrier bearing drop if you lift the rear but the 5100 alone won’t do that.
