885's How much lift did you get?

How much lift did you get out of your 885's. I contacted Toytec and they couldnt give me the best answer. I want to run 885's with my billys at .85 I want to hit the 3" mark. I was told that if varies. You can either get 2, 2 1/4, or 2 1/2. I have a crew cab with a long bed.

 

I got a full 3" with the 5100's @ 0 and 885's I think you need to keep your 5100's @ 0 for what your doing

 

i think most peopleare getting 3 inches with just the coils. i would try them with the bill's set at 0 first!

 

dont preload the shocks with those springs. you want something good, get the 885 with the ome shocks. they are built to work well together. but dont use 5100 at .85" with the 885.

 

oh and toytec probably couldnt give you an answer because theres tons of variables...bumpers winches blah blah weight that would make the lift different heights

 

Pre Load what do you mean by this? I've already got the 5100's sitting in the box and purchased the 885's damit all.

 

preloading them as in raising the c clip on the 5100 shocks. with 885's and access cab i think without any add ons to the front you should be sitting close to 3" especially if you got the top plate spacers (1/4") with the 885's, or at least at 2.5".

lets just say with the 885's at 2.5" and then another 1" from the billys your at 3.5" and you are going to have >.5" of down travel making for a shitty ride as well as frying your cv's all day long. replacing those cv's will be a pain and you will regret running so much lift.

did you get new uca's?

 

I have my 885's and billies at 0. plus the toytec top plate spacer and I am sitting at 39.25". Which for me is a touch over 3".

 

haha thanks again chris i know ive been hitting you up about it. Your the man.
