I looked at Toytec but they’re kinda outrageous and Wheelers seems pretty good but shipping is freaking $75!!! And good recommendations? They need to have OME and Bilsteins
Cheapest site to order suspension parts?

I just picked up a complete set of Billsteins for $369 on Amazon. Cheapest price I could find. I chose Wheelers for all the other components, I've been using them for years. I believe they're on the west coast, that could be why shipping is so expensive for you.

I've had good luck with [MENTION=120150]TotalAutomotiveLV[/MENTION]. They offer a forum discount using code T4R. I don't think the discount applies to the 5100s but it should work on the OME coils.
Other than that, your best bet would to be to find the parts individually rather than all from the same vendor. Sometimes you can score a good deal if you use eBay and find a seller that accepts offers.

I got all my suspension from Wheelers. Everything came packed very well and considering how HEAVY a suspension package is, $75 is money well spent. Mine had to be packed in two boxes, so time and materials are parts of that charge. A year from now you won't even think about it.

Shipping is shipping... its either built into the cost of the parts, or separately with competitive numbers on equipment.
Wheelers shipping isn't that bad, once you get the package you would get over the charge.
They pack it well and all in all seems reasonable considering the cost of equipment.
Just make sure you have accounted for everything in one order... I got everything I needed, including bump stops, and even had them build the front struts with new top hats and hardware... hassle free drop in install that I did myself, which ended up saving me a bunch of cash.

As far as a complete kit goes, the ToyTec kit is hard to beat. ToyTec ultimate kit is about the best you can buy in that price range IMO.

Do you have a link? All I see are front struts, no rear for my year 2004. Thx

I would love to get that kit but I can probably top out at $800 absolute max. I don’t work while I’m at college so my funds are very limited and I’ll still have to get an alignment after.
They show a four pack of shocks for $297 or so, but I called to ensure it was two shocks and two struts, and the rep said that the computer made an error and they couldn’t do all four corners for $297, the total would be $340. Still a decent deal. Give them a call see what they can do.

That kit seems overpriced for what it has considering its based on a 5100 on the front shock...
I got a 6112 lift for less than that from Wheelers.... I just built my own "kit"
6112 Fronts
Labor - Front Strut Assembly
1/4 Top Plate for driver side gas tank leveling
Extended coil support studs
Nylok Nuts for Top Plate
5100 for Rear Shocks
OME 2895 Rear Coils
Wheelers Superbump "bump stops"
Shipping
$1220.60
OP could build something similar using a 5100 up front and be under budget.

Yep but they're adjustable and that makes it all worth it to me. IMO i'd much rather adjustable shocks to dial it in perfectly over using a shim on one side to hopefully get it level.

1/4" spacer is all you need on the driver side... simple and cheap. Threaded coils would have proved themselves to be completely unnecessary on my install...
Before Lift
Front 19" Both Side
Read 21.25" Both Sides
After
Front 23" Both Sides
Rear 24" Both Sides
After a couple months to settle
Front 22.5" Both Sides
Rear 24" Both Sides
Personally I found value not having a threaded coil... because I hate setting them up. The pre-set perch of the 5100 and 6112 is why I went to that shock in the first place.
If I wanted the hassle, I would have just bought something from King. Plus for a similar cost, what an upgrade moving to a 6112...
