    I'm considering SPC uca's which are quite popular with some of the guys here, but I will check out the Camburg's.

    Quick side note, I believe Toytec will be doing a 10% off Toytec brand suspension setups starting in a day or so... ;)

    Baja D's are also on my winter money tree re-seeding list. They are pricey but you get what you pay for. I'd like to get the 20 incher at some point ($580 list, sheesh, but cool sheesh. heh heh) [​IMG]

    Thinking about doing a mild 2-3" lift on the front of my 2010 DC, and I don't want to go more than 1"-1.5" in the rear. Would it be better to use the coach builder shackles and throw on some air bags for when I tow? My travel trailer that I have right now is about 3500 pounds dry, but I do plan on moving up to a smallish toy hauler in the future. Also, would it be better to go with the boss lift or bilstein 5100's with stock springs? Looking for a smoother ride than I have now also. The stock ride on my dirt road sucks. I used bilstein 5100's on our 4Runner with fj front coils and toytec super flex rear coils and it rides like a Cadillac on the dirt roads. Thanks for the help in advance. Sorry if I hi-jacked the thread a little. Tried to keep it on the same topic.

    I run the BOSS kit with a 1.5" block in the rear. I find it it be a bit smoother and more reliable than the Bilistein 5100's (which also can't be valved)

    The guy who runs Toytec has the boss kit with a 1.5" block in the rear and Firestone air bags for towing.

    I thought the blocks were something to avoid though?

    Some Mods :) See build thread for details
    No blocks will give you the same ride as if you didn't have them. Just shifting the axle down. There is a problem with vibrations and takeoff shutter with them on the smaller Tacomas. No problem with my 1" block. Haven't heard of any issues with blocks on the Tundra.
