    All leaf packs settle from every manufacturer. Especially if you haul or trailer. If you ever anticipate a shell it'll settle more over the life of the truck. I'd put in the spacer up front and not take out the overload in the rear.

    My question now is the same as before you put the lift on , why did you go with the
    $81 d29xl leaf spring
    d29xl leaf in your Dakar pack if you don't carry constant loads ?

    Tried to install the 1/2" spacer tonight...no go....there was too much lift and the TC UCA was hitting my coil spring. I'll just let it settle....and maybe down the road get a 1/4" spacer if needed. I got the extra leaf because I do carry heavy loads from time to time. Does a 4500 lbs 23 ft center console plus trailer tongue weight count? Also, I'm under the assumption that these coil overs come from Toytec adjusted for 3" (plus or minus) of lift. I can visually see 3 rings on the 5100 shock body.

    You're at 25" hub to fender up front and you're trying to add more lift ?

    Is your truck 4x4 ?

    Not sure.....just dropped it off at the dealer for the final alignment. I'm pretty sure I got close to 3 inches of lift up front. Maybe 2.5" I really don't mind the rake...I was just trying to squeeze a little more lift if I could.....it's not gonna work.....like I said MAYBE a 1/4 inch spacer down the road....I don't feel like pulling everything apart again.

    Dumb question: does a 1/2" spacer = 1/2" lift? More ? Less?

    1/2" spacer would give approx 1" lift

    Ok so I'm 22.5" from center hub up front.....how much lift is that?

    And I'm 25.5" in the rear...still thinking my OME 884 coils with spacer gave me more front lift....or maybe the higher rear is just making me think that. Problem is I forgot to measure the old lift height before taking it off.

    Thanks Oz! So is there any way to get more height out front out of the coils? I can see three set rings above where the collar sits.

    To be honest , I'm not familiar with that front lift set up , I'll let somebody else chime in on that but I do think you could remove the
