I ordered my 5100's Monday and they arrived today. If anyone is considering getting them, Sonny @ Down South Motorsports is the man, good price and fast shipping. I hope to get them on tomorrow, I will then post some pics and thoughts...

Awesome, what setting are you gonna put them on and what are you going to do with the rear?

 

[thegreydog]

I got the TSB done, but mine was only a 3 leaf, but it did bring the rear up 1 1/4. It seems everyone here is running 1.75 on DCABs so I will probably run the same. The nice thing about these are, if I decide to go higher in the future, I can add a 1 inch block in the rear and raise the front to 2 1/2, but with my tires this will look best for now...

Got my 5100's in the mail yesterday from Sonny. Went to the dealership and setup the appointment for the RLS TSB today. Also, I got my black headlights from beastbluetaco today.

My Scoshe stuff came in the other day, but the HU will not be here until later this week. I am thinking about having the dealer install the 5100's and do the alignment. Has anyone had the dealer install the 5100s?

 

[thegreydog]

The shocks and the alignment are done. Very happy with the ride and the truck sits more level even with the TSB done. I will post pics tomorrow afternoon of the before and after. Dcab with the TSB and 5100s set to 1.75. If you are looking for a good solid ride, I would definitely recommend this setup.

Lets see some pics! i set mine at 2.5 and wouldn't have it any other way.

 

[thegreydog]

I got them done at my local tire shop, it is one I have used for years. He only charged me $120 for everything, alignment included. They had it done within a couple of hours so I am really satisfied. I took a picture this am in the same location as yesterday morning so it will be a perfect before and after. I will post them this evening.

So here are the pics! This is an 07 w/ tsb (3 Spring), 5100's in front set at 1.75. I am parked on a slight hill.

They said the part number called for this one... Does anyone else have the same setup with the 4 leaf?

you should have 4 leafs back there or else you dont have the updated ones

 

[thegreydog]

It looks like they ordered the damn factory ones! SOB!

Stupid dealer. Tell them to actually read the TSB..

 

[thegreydog]

I just got off the phone with my Toyota Tech and he said he may have wrote down the original part no. he is going to check in the AM and order the right ones, should be in by next Tues... F%^K!

 

[thegreydog]

They verified they ordered the wrong ones. He was looking at the current part no. and ordered it, the 4 leaf packs should be in next Tuesday. Thanks for pointing that out, I was just going to let them believe they were right! Thanks!
