    Hey all. I have been reading around and cant find a thread on this yet for the Tacoma.Looked on some FJ Forums and what not and I am unable to get a definite answer on this question. I just lifted my 09' Tacoma with the 3" Toytec lift with Standard/ light load coils and AAL in the rear (Link is Below).

    I just bought a 140lb All Pro Apex Steel bumper and 87lb Winch. Im about to put 220+ lbs on the front of my Taco and was wondering if its gonna sag at all? Any way to fix this sag? Thanks in advance!

    Pop the hood and have a seat.

    It'll sag, anyway. 1/2-3/4" most likely.

    It will sag. I did the exact same thing and had to get heavier springs for my fox 2.5. With coilovers you can adjust the pre load but the ride will be harsh. Just get heavier rated springs to compensate for the added weight.

    It's not a bad bumper. Heavy but good. You will sag a little...

    Can you post a picture of your coils with spacers? I'm trying to picture 2" spacers and it looks crazy to me in my head. Are your coils super compressed???
