    Well....I was just reading the paperwork that came with the lift..."Your new Toytec Lifts Coilovers come pre-set to about 2.5"-3" of front lift height."

    Interesting. I bet that is a generic letter included in all boxes of coilovers and need to be updated for 2016. Technically the 2016's already have 1 inch of lift from the factory so the max gain can only be 2"s. I know the website is updated to reflect this for sure. I guess the doc just needs to be updated.

    Yeah if I were starting a build over now that 1 inch body lift would be a must. But with all of my armor in place already a 1 inch body lift would just be a headache.

    I'm going with the Bilstein 5100 Adjustable Ht. and these wheels in 17" w/ 4.5 BS: http://www.fueloffroad.com/trophy-d552-w-7955.htm Local shop guy says I can get 285/70 with the shocks set at 1.75 with no rubbing issues or trimming needed. Truck is TRD OR 4x4 DC. Anybody know different? Suggestions? Comments. Will this shock setting put my front end noticeably higher. Read some here say the .85 is right to level. If I choose that setting, what tires can I go with without need to trim?

    Thanks guys.

    I would be worried about alignment more than anything. You should probably replace your UCAs. Do we all agree?

    I say you will do just fine with stock ucas. Under 2.5" lift aftermarket ucas will lead to cab mount rubbing and caster over 3 degree. I would also recommend not using stock coils with 5100 get toytec/eibach coils or 885 or 887 for 2" lift

    I'm ignorant to most of this, but learning. Can you explain the suggestion for the different coils?

    This might be a really dumb question but where is the "1 inch lift from the factory" at? Is there a spacer in the front? And if i was to go Bilstein 5100s all the way around, if I adjust their height to 1 inch is it a 2 inch lift? Thanks for any input.
