    A little off the Tacoma train. But I am going to be installing new 5100's on my wifes 2007 4Runner SR5 to try to closely level with rear. Theres about 3" difference front to rear now.

    Question I have is should I set to 1.75" and preload the stock springs more or set to .85 and add a Toytec 3/4" top spacer? Either way I have to add spacer for lean on driver side.

    Okay, well I learned from Toytec that they do not recommend stacking spacers. So its either .85 or 1.75 setting with stock SR5 springs (which I imagine will be stiffer) or new springs? Toytec rep said they have OME 883 or 884.

    Suggestions or experience? This is onroad only for my wife and the ride is okay now, but wallowy. And i want to level:)
