    I don't squat about them lol. That makes me wonder what your actually paying for at the end of the day? An OR with a Skeeeewwwwp?

    Also isn't a non adjustable coilover a strut? Again I don't know much...

    the coilovers are not adjustable, my front is 21 1/2 from center of hub to the bottom of the fender and the rear is 22 1/4 just measured it. Has anyone run the fox set up from my previous post?

    That is the same measurement that my TRD OR was from factory.

    If you're dead set on making it level, I'd just remove the overload leaf. Totally free and will drop the ass end 1/2". Or you can get two of the 1/4" taco lean spacers and throw them up front. That'll raise you up about 1/2".

    I think you'll find those are the same shock bodies you have in the rear anyway, If you are just looking for another 1" in the front, personally I'd simply buy that front setup and see how you like it before changing UCA's and the rear.

    im not exactly sure on similarities or difference between this suspension and mine in the rear but that is an option, is there no need for UCA's to get proper alignment when you raise these trucks?

    That depends on how much you raise the truck. 3" is needed, 1" is not. So if you are in the 2" range (1" over you current setting), there is a chance you don't need to. That's why I said try it first.

    I vote a spacer up front. No uca should be needed. You've already got nice TUNED suspension.

    I think it looks perfect the way it sits, but 1/4" spacers up front wouldn't hurt anything if you really "need" it to be more level...

    I don't think 1/4" would even be discernible (visually)

    none yet/none planned! It's perfect!
    What would it take to put the 1/4" spacers above the front springs? Do you need a spring compressor? Sounds like the stock bolts will work.

    For 1/4" spacers, stock bolts will work. Just drop the whole coilover, put the plate on top, and then bolt everything back up. Any thicker than 1/4" and you need extended studs.

    Does it need an alignment after this? 1/4" spacers gets me 1/2" Correct?
