I am new here, but love what you guys are doing. I have decided to build a rack for a RTT from ARB and a side awning from Fiamma for my tacoma. just something to spend a night on the beach in with comfort.

My question is this, i have a fabtech 6" lift, i would like to replace the shocks up front, what is offered for this truck, so far i have only found the same replacements from fabtech. http://xtrv.smugmug.com/photos/620390450_d9QcS-M.jpg

Are your shocks extended, or do they have a spacer on top of the shock?

I had to replace the whole thing (shocks and coils) on my truck. It had the old style 2 inch coil over fox shocks and just to replace the shocks would have cost more than my new OME set up. I let the fox go to long with out a rebuild and they were hammered internaly. The OME set up is smoother riding even with the H.D. front coils and shocks.
