    Its easy. I just watched a few youtube vids. watch the ones from a youtuber dipyourcar. If you mess up it comes right off. I used 1 can per wheel FYI. Bumper is just white and glossifier. I didnt use the cards, I just armour alled tires and at the end the dip comes right off super easy. I mean like wipe your finger over it and it falls off easy.

    Awesome! :thumbsup:
    Probably gained an inch over my last set up. It's probably a full three now.

    Nice. Gonna get a new bumper? Most say how 886s are stiffer with OEM bumper cause higher spring rate

    It's funny I was expecting it to be a much stiffer ride, it's much better than my spacer lift on stock shocks.

    That's good to hear. I think I'm getting 885 coils to put on my 5100s instead of stock coils.

    As long as there's no bumper in the future, you should get about 2.5+ out of that. The 887's I've heard give a full 3 and ride exactly like the 885's

    I just put on 5100's with 885 with (1/4" spacer on driver side only) on my 15 tacoma dcab 4x4 and it didnt even give me 2" in the front. kinda dissapointed but I love the ride and look. Also added a 1" block in the rear and its almost perfectly level. 1/8" or so higher in the front

    It's not about the lift anymore. It's about the fine tuning. A few days old, but the dual shock setup is in and in full effect.
