    Reviews? Anyone use these? If not what is around the same price and comparable? $1600

    You should also check out Toytec, they have several good products in the 3 inch range.

    If this is your daily driver only then the Bilstein 6112/5160 combo will be a suitable option. I run it and have no complaints. The only off-roading I do is while hunting and fishing and they work great

    the icon stage 1 is over priced for what you get. In the icon lineup I believe the stage 4 with or without the AAL should be the minimum

    I have a stage one on my tundra. I think it is a great setup for me. I use my truck on the ranch, hunting, fishing & getting around. It rides great on the road. My son's truck is stock & he says mine rides better than his. Also have the same set up on my 2006 Taco. I put it on when I bought the truck in 2006.

    Had this set up on my truck for almost a year (was on the truck when I bought it).. I thought it was great. I really liked the feel of the coilovers.. the rear end left me wanting more though.. I also suggest doing something other than blocks in the rear. Maybe these coils with the Bilstein 5160s in the rear and some ToyTec shackles or a mini leaf pack in the rear.. depends what you are wanting to do with your truck as well.

    could probably roll with the classic 6112 and 5160 rear shocks and then have some leftover money for UCAs or actually some rear leafs/mini pack and be very happy.

    happy to chat more or tell you more about the kit, just let me know.

    Thanks for all the information. Do you actually get a 3”lift from the 6112 and 5160 set up. Long term which is better the blocks or shackles?

    I think it is unanimous that shackles are better than blocks....Sorry, but don't know more about the 6112 Coilovers to help out with lift specs.. Why exactly do you want 3" of lift?

    It all comes down to use case. I'm a couple months into suspension research and there is something you should hear. "Buy once, cry once" - It comes down to use case. Can't go wrong with ICON, ADS, FOX, KINGS

    I just picked up the Toytec Aluma Series 2.5, this is the second kit from Toytec I have purchased. The first was on my Tacoma.
    Love the quality and customer service.
