    Too late. Got the one inch block installed and the ride is excellent! Love the shocks and the truck is mostly leveled out. The front may be a tad higher, but not nearly as bad as it was with the leveling kit.

    Great. Glad you're happy with the decision to go to .85. Time for pics!

    Oh for sure. Right now the truck is on a hill, so it won't serve justice. I'll post some this evening though. Overall I'm very happy with it. I just need to get an alignment performed on Monday!

    Likely okay, he is on brand new TRD coils at .85 so he may drop some with some miles and time underneath them.

    Also his rear OEM leafs have 100k miles on them so being a touch nose high is totally plausible with a new coil up front and the old leaf pack in the rear.

    I'm not sure yet lol I've been driving it around so much that I haven't took the time to measure. Once I get home, I'll take some a post it.

    Haha how much Taco lean is usually present? I figure it's different for every truck, but is one inch about right?

    I never had any lean with the trd sport springs on 5100's. There's a myth out there that the stock springs are side specific, like when you were asking about it in the beginning of your thread.

    I know it's too late now, but I went from a block to a 3 leaf AAL and the off-road performance was night and day between the two. I got a lot of low speed hop out of the block compared to the AAL. If you don't off-road much it probably won't matter as much.

    Not sure about the Sport coils, but the Offroad coils are side specific. If your coils have different color markings on them, then they likely are side specific.

    Yeah they have color markings. I think they're on the wrong sides.
