    Yes! All good. The first picture was hard to tell if the gap is create because of friction pad or wrong placement of the leafs.

    Ok,

    So I did the cheaper spacer/block lift, they said it would level out the truck but it is still higher then I want in rear! I had it done at BlackJack Auto here in San Antonio and also added the 17" SCS Ray 10's with 285/70/17 BFG KO2's.

    I don't like it at all, I know you get what you pay for! The ride seems to have to much play, not firm or tight like I wanted. When on the highway I seem to be compensating to stay in line, swaying I assume, it's not crazy but not tight and firm like I want.

    With that said, would it be safe to take the spacer/bock lift off and keep the tires and rims but replace with a better quality and performing lift.

    I know my 2016 TRD OR is only a 2 wheel drive but I want the aggressive look but leveled out, with a tight, firm and gripping the road feeling!

    I have asked similar questions before the lift and Headstrong was great with me but I got confused with all the options and seeing every one here and their great lifts, all have helped and maybe I should of went their route but money was not good at the time.

    So, recommendations for what I want would be great and also thanks for all the help, $2000.00 is the MAX I want to spend and if $1000.00 can get me there even better!

    I here Bielstien, OME coils and AAL's is a great way,

    Again, my want's:
    Firm and tight ride
    gripping road
    level with minimal to zero rear hight in rear!

    this is my gum ball machine spacer/block lift

    headstrongoffroad has some nice bilstein kits with ucas and dakars. I've been looking at the kit with 6112 shocks, and rear shocks with piggybacks, but its probably overkill.

    What do you guys think about this lift? Let me know if id be Fucking up.

    • FOX 2.5 Factory Coilovers w/ resi, extended
    • FOX 2.0 Performance rear shocks w/resi
    • Rear lift options – Deaver Single AAL
    • Upper control arm -- light thing uca
    $2199
    It also has the option of 3 leaf aal.
    Compression adjusters on the front and/or rear
    Total chaos or camburg ucas.

    Why are those aftermarket ucas so much more expensive?

    What problems would there be running a single leaf deaver?

    IMO the light racing are better because of the adjustability.

    How do you like the ride on the road compared to the stock ride? I'm seriously contemplating doing this but want to know how the suspension changes the feel on the road. I'm sure it's awesome off-road.

    Noticeable difference....should break in and soften up a bit but it's firmer especially in the rear ( no homo jokes) lol

    Very little rubbing because it's only set at 2 inches right now. Will lift it to 3" at the end of this coming week.
