Lifted '16 Tacomas

Thanks. I'm not running any spacers and have no rubbing whatsoever even when flexed.

 

Question for you, what bilsteins did you go with up front? 2nd or 3rd gen? I'm planning on running the same set up just unsure of which ones I should get. Thanks

 

I know you didnt quote me...however, I'm running the exact setup from headstrong offroad.
One thing I've noticed with these 3rd gen 5100's, there's 5 clip settings on the 5100's. I'm pretty sure the 2nd gen has 3.

 

Did you leave them on the lowest setting and if so approximately how much lift did you get? I'm planning on leaving them on the lowest clip with the 888's to not preload them anymore than they already will be. I'm looking to have a slight rake maybe 1/2 to an inch. I've read so many posts on this my head spins. From what I've seen this is the route I want to go. Thanks!

 

Guys and gals, I'm about a week away from installing my Bilstein 6112's, 5150's and an add a leaf.
Ordering tires today for my 18X9 +0 offset. Planned on going with 275/70/18's

Think it will rub? Going to try to hit 2.5-3" of lift if possible. Well really whatever the add a leaf will allow and equal out the front.

 

Just got it leveled with new wheels and tires

 

Very nice, specs?

 

Before front L 20.5 R 20.66 Rear L 21.58 R 22.16. End Front L 23.25 R 23.5 Rear L 23.25 R 23.5. Taken in the same spot using a 3 count average.

 

Forgot to measure at full droop on rack. Was a tid bit too excited to get it on lol

 

What size tires

 

265/70/17

 

Sorry for the late reply. I am running 3rd gen 5100s.

 

What wheels are those and what lift did you go with? Truck looks awsome!

 

What was the part number of your king coilovers? I got TC5119-03A and installed it with my TC +2" LT kit. The tag on the coilover specified left or right. Each shock had the reservoir hose fitting facing the rear of the truck, which didn't make sense. Because I know they are supposed to mount towards the front of the truck and out of the way of the secondary bypass if you decided to run one. Reason why I'm pointing this out is because I see your reservoir King sticker is upside down. Did you adjust the fitting to move it over to the front side? I'm going to be swapping left and right to get these things corrected and the sticker won't be upside down.

Thanks for letting me know!

 

Anyone have a good tire recommendation for the following suspension upgrade, who's done something similar? Leaning towards 285x75x16 (16 inch TRD wheel)

I'm planning on the same kit and I'll be going with 275/70/17 on 4Runner pro wheels. Not sure what the best 16" equivalent will be. Hope that helps.

 

I did my lift a few weeks ago 887s and an aal in the rear. I didn't get it aligned because I was waiting to get my new tires which i got installed yesterday. I had to drive 60mi today hopefully I will be able to get an alignment wed. Between now and wed I will have to drive another 40mi do you think i should switch out the wheels back to factory ones. I dont think anything but my camber is out but obviously i cant be sure.

Ps: I waited to get an alignment cause I didn't care about the factory tires(I didn't see any noticible wear in 300mi after lift) plus I wanted to have my 275s before getting it so I may alleviate any rubbing.

 

Do you have pictures?
