    I was just wondering if the OME 885s will give you a full 3'' up front. I was wanting to run the OME and bilsteins combo

    I got 4" of lift when I went with dakars and 886's. I measured right after installation, it may have settled a bit.

    I still have to add my front and rear bumpers, so it will settle slightly more.

    I'm not sure of my overall gain because my truck had a spacer lift when I got it, but from my measurements now (24 3/4"), I think I'm close to 4" with 885s and 1/2" top plate spacers with my DCLB prerunner. I started at 23" with a pro comp 2 1/4" spacer lift. I was at 23 1/2" after the 885 and before the top plate spacers. I'm not sure why mine lifted so much. Measured several times and the 5100s are at the zero setting.

    You have the 1/2" top plate spacer , not the 3/8" one ?

    As well as a 1/4" spacer ?

    Yep, got the 1/2" from Toytec and I'm running the 1/4" along with it on the driver's side only.

    You're getting 1 1/4" of lift from your top plate spacers on the driver's side

    RIDDICK3, I noticed no change in the ride of my truck after adding the top plate spacers.

    That is correct. From the 1/2" spacer plus the 1/4" lean spacer.

    Most Prerunners get 3" lift from the 885's only. No top plate sppacer is needed, Only a trim packer for the lean.

    How much lift can one expect on a 4x4 AC? I want to go full OME with Dakars. Will i need the top plate spacers on an Access Cab 4x4?

    885's should get an AC 2 3/4" - 3" up front , Dakars will provide similar out back .
