Hey ya'll, just a quick question. Just ordered both OME 890 Springs and OME 60028 Comfort Shocks for my rear 99 T4R 4x4 Ltd. I'm unsure about the amount of lift I'll get from it since I'm already running with 99 Tall Springs, but thats not really my concern. Will I need to get extended brake likes once I put this lift in?

Haven't decided on my front lift yet, but thinking along the lines of the OME 881 or Tundra TRD setup, will I need a diff drop once I put either one in? Or just go with Bilstein 5100s and keep my stock front coils. Thanks guys!

Nope. The stock length will be just fine. The diff drop is not required, but it will help a little with the angles of the cv axles.

Even with my 7 wrap LC coils and about 3.75" lift I didnt need the brake line. I let the axle fully droop and it was fully stretched so I got one for good measure. Not to mention when replacing it the old one was starting to crack. Its cheap and easy to install.
 
More questions about the front

Seems as most people here get their rigs lifted for some serious crawling and flexing, looks really fun but i've always just used my trucks for long trails, washboards...back country stuff. Lippincott Mine in Death Valley is typical grade I encounter. That being said, my rear lift is in the mail, naturally i've been glued to the computer thinking about what I want in the front.

I'd rather have a softer ride than harsh, especially with long washboards. Will the Tundra Bilstein 5100s paired with my stock front springs be adequate enough for me to put a plate bumper on in the future?
 
I was researching this and came across a neat little writeup on youtube that showed how you can use two brake lines and a custom bracket to make an extended brake line. Its cheaper too.

Stock springs will sag and ride like crap. You would need to run at least 882's. With stock bumper and 882's you will have too stiff of a ride so its best to do both at the same time.
