    Top plate spacers or no?

    I installed the same lift (885's and a 1.5" AAL) with 275's. If the front doesn't settle too much, I want to put 285's on later. I purchased top spacers but haven't put them on.

    Been reading through this whole thread and I've come to the conclusion that waiting for a 2016 specific lift is in my best interest. I come from sports cars and am used to the importance of making sure suspension is balanced all the way around. The mixing and matching coils and shocks-struts doesn't seem like the greatest idea for longevity. For 2016s it seems like Toytec is the only ones that have a kit available. All others are 2005+.
    I'll try my hardest to wait it out if not the best solution I've read about seem to be the OMEs. Hopefully they'll provide a 2016 specific kit here soon, would be a great option. Had OME on my 4runner. Was very good with no complaints, plenty of flex and dampening.

    Icon has 2016 lifts that everyone seems to be really impressed with.

    If you were into 2" lifts there is plenty to read about.

    20160312_130918.jpg Finally got it home today. Still rubbing on the bottom of the rear part of the fender even with the flares off. Probably need a body shop to do a little work there and on the body mount. Have to turn very carefully until then.20160312_130949.jpg

    Thanks! Now I need a body shop willing to do a little modifying for me. I should probably wait till Bushwacker has the flares ready for the 16 and have it all done at the same time. They told me they might be ready by end of the month.

    What is your alignment specs? It looks like your TC ucas causing your rubbing. What is your lift on kings and is your lower arms maxed out on caster?

    When you get it post up some pics of everything especially the King suspension. That's what I want to upgrade to. Also a run down of all your mods.

    How well did your flares come of Honey? Any issues with busted clips or were they salvagable. I want to remove mine so I can Raptor line them.

    The guy at the shop pulled off the flares. He wasn't there when I picked it up so don't know how it went, but looks like one clip is broke. Here is a pic of the kings.20160218_150048.jpg
