Drivers side lean fix

Finally got around to ordering and installing the toytec front 1/4 spacer and rear 1/2 shim out back. Very pleased with the results.

Before



After


Im very impressed with toytec and these products. Took about 2.5 hrs and it all bolted up fine.

 

Same exact measurements I have on my OR...

 

How is this not tuned out of the stock suspension from the factory design? So odd....

 

I got some pics of the front too... Workin on posting soon. Honestly toyota should have assessed this. With a full tank its almost was embaracing at how bad it leaned..not anymore! Its perfect now.

 

I thought I had a flat the other day! Haha

 

If a spacer like this fell out while you were barreling down the highway, what would happen?

 

How would it fall out? There us a pin in the middle of it.

 

I'm curious about those measurments. If it is a half inch shim why did it only raise the drivers side rear a 1/4 of an inch?

 

The centre pin goes through the shim

 

Subd. Have the lean as well. Planning on fixing it along with lift once I figure out which lift.

 

Interesting. I have looked and looked and can't see any lean on mine. I may break out a tape just for curiosity's sake. Have no plans on doing anything if it is though.

 

I see you haven't done your breather mod yet.

 

The spacer thickness is never a direct correlation to lift achieved.

A bolt(center pin) is installed. Same way a 2 or 3" block is installed. Only 1/2" block in this case.

 

Did frame-to-wheel measurements mimic your hub-to-wheel measurements?

 

Measure center hub to fender.

 

I'd slap the incompetent who installed it.

 

My truck has about 1/4 inch difference in the rear. When I'm in the truck it seams like it might be more than that though. Forgot to check the front. I'm not sure if it is worth trying to fix this. I don't like the lean but it seams like a lot of work to install spacers.

 

That's how only adjusting one corner goes. If you put a half inch shim under both sides it would be closer to half an inch.

I learned this after spending an entire day trying to adjust my car level. Jumped on the wrx forum and got a good lesson on adjustments made on one order corner affect the other three.

 

OP - how have measuremeants been since the spacer and shim?
