First gen rc lift options

I have an 03 reg cab tacoma 2.7 with a homemade bumper up front. Bumper is probably around 100lbs i am guessing, i am not running a winch or anything. I am looking to lift my truck but am unsure whether to go with ome 881,882, or 883 up front. I have new factory leaf springs in the rear and new factory coils/strut assemblies in the front. Although, my front end is sitting 2 inches lower than the rear. I feel that my front end may be sagging from the homemade bumper. I want to do a 1.5 wheelers aal in the rear but i am unsure which front coils will make my truck sit level. I feel that the 881s might not be enough to level my truck with the 1.5 aals. Does anyone have any input which coils i should go with?

 

I hate to be the guy (and i see you are new on here) that dosent help but this question is literally asked weekly on here. Heck i bet there is one on the first page of the thread lists right now if ya looked...Do a Google search for the question at hand followed by tacoma world and you'll find hundreds of threads to read up on. That method is better than the in house search feature...

There is also a huge ass thread in here thats just for ome suspension stuff, might give it a once over. Lots of info in there fur sure!

 

2nd set of 881's with tube bumper, 8000lb winch, hi-lift.
1st set of 881's lasted almost 7 yrs.

You'll be good with 881's.

 

Thank you Matic!

 

Definitely go with the 881s

Check out @Blues0010 truck at the bottom of the page. He has OME on a RC and is running and aftermarket front bumper as well. You may be able to find others with RC's if you have time to sift through that thread.

 

Yep, 881s are the most you will want with a 1.5" AAL. My 881s are even a little stiff. I may eventually bump up to 883s or take a leaf out of my dakars. I currently have a little too much rake.

Regular cabs are the best!!!! let's see some pictures.

 

Lift is on its way! Bilstien 5100 front shocks, ome 881s, 1/4 top plate for drivers side lean, diff drop, wheelers 1.5 aals, rough country n2.0 rear shocks, and bpv bracket. Will post pics.

 

post pics when your done I have Wheelers 1.5 progressive leafs too. but doesn't sit right will be getting extended shackles. I do not have new rear leafs though so I'm wondering if mine is not level do to the old leafs..

 

Whats your exact suspension set up?

 

The RC shocks will ride VERY bad, good choice on the front tho! You may need more than 1/4" for the lean tho. I ended up needing 3/8" spacer but everyone is different

 

what would you recommend in back? I've got a regular cab too, might get to a lift at some point in the future. lol

 

I'm running all OME.

881 coils
Dakar leaf pack...with extra leaf.
Nitrocharger shocks.

 

You can run both .5 spacers till you see some sag. Then pull the passenger one out.

 

Thats sweet. I like the sticker.

 

Lift is in! Hopefully the rc rear shocks don't ride to bad haha!

 

What do your stock leafs look like? I'm wondering cus mine are a little flat so I'm debating to go with the ad a leaf

 

Heres my stock leafs @frenchee

 

Here she is stock before lift and tires. I know the paint needs some love...

 

New wheels and tires came in eagle alloy 100s 16x8 3.625 bs and BFG KO2s 265 75 r16
