Bilstein HD's with OME 881/906

[Rusty Shackleford]

I'm about 95% positive I want to go with this setup. I was originally set on just getting some highlander coils, but after further research the OME coils are a lot cheaper and give a little more lift.

So, I have searched pretty extensively on here and found some threads referencing the Bilstein HD's + OME 881/906, but most, if not all, seemed to be a couple years old and I would like some current feedback from people who are running this setup.

1) How does the ride of this setup hold up over the years? Are you still happy with it?

2) What extras do I need to buy? Trim packer for front driver's side? Extended brake line? Front diff drop?

3) Is an upgrade to the rear sway bar recommended due to the taller ride height?

I won't be doing any serious offroading, but I would like the extra clearance for camping/fishing excursions and some moderate trail riding.

Bump. Anyone?

How did your lift turn out?

I have 99 talls in front with 906's in the rear and HD's. Ride is great, perfect height for me. I've only had it a few months so I cant speak of the longevity. I didn't need any extras. I do notice a slight drivers side lean with a full tank, I may someday add a trim packer. I'm running 265/70/16's but plan to go up to 265/75/16's.

IMO the ome sport comforts are best option up front with 881's.

Great! Although I ended up going with Tacoma 5100's front & rear from Wheeler's Offroad instead of the HD's. These, along with the OME 880/906's provide a very smooth ride. For my preferences, this setup is perfect. I did install the 10mm trim packer on the driver's side front, so there is no lean at all. Unfortunately, I forgot to take before & after height measurements to see how much lift was gained, but it's definitely noticeable.
