There's only one brand unless you want to make your own...

http://www.sdori.com/SDORI_Products.html

And you get them either from 4crawler or TRDparts4u...

They're as reliable as a big hunk of aluminum can be too. No worries.

www.SDORI.com AKA elripster on the boards, he makes them himself. I have a set of the 1.5" spacers, VERY nice work. I trust them.

As far as I know there is only one company making them and that's SDORI , http://www.sdori.com/ You can however get them through a couple places like here: http://www.4crawler.com/4x4/ForSale/ProductLine.shtml

Yes, they are reliable.

If you lift the truck higher then stock specs you need locker shocks.

You can run with the stockers but they won't work very well and will limit travel. You'll need new shocks as soon as posible...

can i use the es3000's w/o lift? its because i plan on lift later down the road but for now i dont have the dough as i am a struggling student. i have about 700$ to spend but a portion of that is going towards a much needed audio system and im gona try the 50$ paint job as well.

Mine are designed for 0-2" of lift which would work perfect with the 1.5" bj spacers
