I bought LC7.5/8s and TRD Tundra coils for back and front, I just ordered a Toytec diff drop and am ordering Bilstein 5100(front) and 5125's(rear)... My question is, what else am I going to need to install my lift? Do i need any other aftermarket parts, bolts, mounts, etc? Thanks in advance... Kalikid

The Diff drop comes with everything you need, even longer bolts for your skip plate. The only thing for the front is that you will have to reuse your top plates and nuts. I'm not sure how the rear shocks come, never had those shocks.

You should be. I reused my bolts for the lower shock mounts, they were still in good shape. As long as your stock bolts, nuts and stuff are in good shape they are all reusable.

The top nuts on the rear shocks tend to rust so what most of us have done was simply bend the shock back and forth till it simply breaks off.
From experience you might want to replace the rear bottom bolts with new Grade 8.8's or higher. Also read up on dry torquing and wet (WD-40) torquing.
Other than that you should be fine with reusing the front suspension supports / top hats.
