The ride is good but only drove it one the road so far. Just done lifting it. Didn't get it aligned yet.

Are the fronts adjustable? If so what setting you have them on?

Yes they have different clip positions like the 5100s. They were preassembled from Toytec and they appear to be on the top clip position. You can see it if you zoom in on the pic of the strut.

Hard to tell if that is the #4 or #5 clip setting.

Is that just a toytec top mount or did you install a spacer as well? I'm just wondering because it seems like you still have some front end rake (not a bad thing) I'm just looking at the same lift but want my truck leveled out.

Toytec top mount. It would be level with a 1 1/2" block. I installed a 2" for the added rake.

I think the seat is different on the 6112 then the 5100.... Doesn't look like it could be flipped

Im curious as to why the use of the toytec top plates..... they are just spacers essentially.

Good luck with 3in of lift and stock uca's and blocks in the rear.

Top spacer is weird but hey....toytec...am i right lol.

Spring seat is correct, its on the 4th of 5 clips now. I wonder if they changed the spring since i got my first run set? I got more than 3 inches of lift off of just the 3rd ring but i have a prerunner

Updates on ride? I'm debating OME Nitro all around vs Bilstein 6112. Wanna verify the 6112 ride is much better than a 5100.

Does ToyTec sell the top mount separately? I'm guessing it provides more lift; how much more?
