    That's strange, I had my stock springs with my 5100's set at 2.5 & top plate spacers to make it 3" plus the spindles & was only at 27.5". After I installed the 885's & 5100's at 0 I was only at 28", it has since settled to 27.5 or 27.75. Can't remember exactly.

    I'm not doubting you just trying to figure it out. Haha

    I think you should be alright without them

    I run Maxtracs with 2016 TRD OR shocks and coils (those gave me an extra inch of lift of front)

    And I run factory UCA's with zero issues getting perfect alignments

    Maxtrac 4" kit Bilstein 5100's Mastercraft 305/70/16
    LOL, no worries man. Here's my thinking:

    Stock: 20" front

    Maxtrac's: +4"
    Bilstein (4th clip): +2"
    1/4" top plate spacer: 0.5"
    305/70/16: +2.3"
    **245/75/16 was 30.5" tall and the 305/70/16 is 32.8" tall

    Hopefully it will settle maybe 1/4" to help my UCA's out a bit.

    Oh are you factoring in your tires some how?
    You can't add the amount of tire to your hub to fender #.
    When you measure it should be from the center of the hub/wheel to the edge of the fender. This is the best way because there is too many variables any other way.

    BTW the 4th notch is 2.5 so you have a total of 7" of lift.
