    Thank you for your response! I actually did see that lift, but I misunderstood his post and thought those red coilovers were part of the bundle you offered. I now realize the OME he was talking about was only for the rear. Thanks again!

    At the time of the first spindle install , I didn't paint it yet , then my buddy found his touch up marker for his red tacoma so we decided to paint it. I like the look of the red mt sign , makes it stand out .

    X2 I like it too. It works well with the red TRD on most TRD wheels.

    The whole alignment thing is because the spindles lift with stock geometry. If lifting with the coilovers it changes the geometry and the aftermarket ucas build camber that you loose back in.

    Sorry guys for the late reply and thanks for the feedback. If you have a 2.5" or a 3" spacer lift if you measured how tall the spacer is would it really be 2.5 or 3" tall?

    Usually the spacer is about half of what the lift is supposed to be.

    That's never made sense to me. Why is that? Something about the compression of the coil.

    Lift, wheels, tires
    So I have my new coils sitting in my room now so when they go on with the top plate spacer I will be at 7" up front and 4" in the rear. Also may add a 1" body lift to run with the cab mount relocation kit I plan to order. So if it were your money would you go with 285/75r16, 315/75r16, or 33x12.50r20.
