    3" coil spring spacers , UCA's , Add a leaf
    I recently took off the spacers and went with Bilstien 5100s all around and Old Man Emu 3885 springs in front set at 1.75 and kept the 1 1/2" add a leaf in the rear . Now I need a 2"-2 1/2" add a leaf because the front is now higher than the back . The ride is good not stiff or sloppy . The ride with the spacer up front didn't change the way it feels at all but the add a leaf in back made the rear stiffer .

    I went with the toytec top spacer which is 1/2 inch spacer on stock coils which will get you at least 3/4 inch to 1inch of lift. It sits level or just a hair lower then the rear.

    It rides like stock. Actually its a little firmer which I like better. It got rid of the spungy spring feeling.

    Current 5100 are made to work(valved) with 2nd gen coils witch are about 540lb sring rate.
    3rd gen coil is 712lb coil, OME 885/887 590lb, toytec has 600lb and 620lb coils. You would want to use coils and shocks that was designed to work together or at least to pair them with closest possible coils.

    So if I go with Bilstein 5100 adjustables set at 0 in the front and 5100s in the rear with OME 885s will that give me 2.5 inches of lift in the front? And how much would be in the back without adding a leaf pack to level it out with the front? I'm sure this has been answered but there is so much on here. Gets confusing trying to piece all this great info together. Thanks for anything!

    anyone know what's the biggest lift you can run without voiding any warranty with the truck. i wanted to run 6" lift on 35's but found i got to cut some stuff and i'm pretty sure that would void stuff so that being said anyone got info?

    Also what's the general idea about Rough Country on here I seen their 4" lift TRD ORDC and it looks exactly what i want to build.

    It's hard to tell exact numbers but from my experience with OME 887 at first I get 3" lift (24" hub to fender) but after about 5 weeks it will settle 3/4" to 23 1/4" OME 885 are 1/2" shorter than 887 so supposedly you get 22 1/2" that's about 1.5" lift. Rear being stock you will be .5" nose up

    Ive read a lot of the posts and comments on here as to what everyone is going with to lift or level their 3rd gen but I'm still torn on what to go with. What's the best scenario to get 2 inches up front with a 1 inch block in the rear or 1 inch up front to level it out and leaving the rear stock? All this without replacing stock UCA's.
