    Hello, I have a doubt; I am thinking on changing the 4 shocks all around for 5100 with KO2 or Destination LE2, same size as stock: so, should keep 0' or 1' at front in order to level the truck

    Go one snap up at .85 and you'll be near perfectly even.

    Took it to the alignment shop this morning to no avail. They couldn't find the specs for a 2016 Tacoma and said something about the difference in weight with the motors from '15 to '16 and didn't want to chance it. Anyhow, at least they owned up and said they'd rather not take a chance and screw it up. I ended up calling up my local Toyota service department and they said they could do it for $70 on Monday. Once I have it done I'll report back with specs.

    Really nice... I am waiting on the same truck. So you just used 5100's on the first notch up front and nothing in back?

    Took it to Toyota today for an alignment. They actually went off 2015 Tacoma specs. My biggest issue is camber because I'm set at 1.75. I will be bringing it back down to .85 and would suggest the same to anyone putting 5100s on a 2016 with stock UCAs. They maxed out the camber and caster as much as they could and it's still a tad slightly off, but within safe driving conditions Everything else they could get within spec.

    Thanks for that,, wondering if that now is because of the 1" lift they themselves put on it?? Adding your 1.75 bringing up to 3" basically ,, where you need the new ucas ,, is that correct,,??

    From my understanding if you got the ome rear shocks to fit on the 2015,,,then the 2016 they will fit ,,, from what I've read some guys have had to do some grinding to get the ome to fit ,, or went with a smaller bodied shock,,, some guys have found a shock you can invert making the clearance a non issue ,, if I am wrong somebody please correct me ,,,

    The way I am looking at this you can lift approx 1" on the stock front end and still get within OEM spec on the alignment. Anything more lift wise without changing suspension components will not yield a within spec alignment. Does this sound correct?
