Anyone using the 3" lift kit wth Bilstein 5100 Height Adjustable front shocks

I am looking for feed back on the Toytec Complete 3" lift kit for 2007 & UP FJ Cruiser and 2003 & UP 4Runner with Bilstein 5100 Height Adjustable front shocks. If your using this setup what size tires are you running and did you replace the upper control arms? Also can you post a pic.

Looking at the same thing- someone with experience would be nice to hear from!
From my understanding- you dont NEED control arms- but if you want to avoid problem in the future and have spot on steering geometry I think it makes sense to just do it. Plus it gives you some extra camber/caster change

I'm not sure if you did any searching, but the answers that you are looking for are in this thread:

I've had 5100s with Toytec coils for over a year now without control arms. I'm going to replace them very soon though to get my alignment in check and to keep it from straying left and right on rough roads. It has done perfectly fine for a while but my ball joints on the UCAs are almost shot 20,000 miles later
