Lifted '16 Tacomas

5100's set at 0 888's OME coils w/heavy duty Dakars

 

looking good bro...did you upgrade your uca's ?

 

Thanks, and yea I went with total chaos UCA's. Maria@headstrong hooked me up.

 

I figured it all out. The YouTube video that Low Range Off Road made for the Dakar install is for the old Dakar leaf packs which come with preinstalled bushings that their video says to knock out and replace with the separate OME bushings that can be purchased separately. I actually ordered the new Dakar leaf pack that does not come with any preinstalled bushings so I needed 8 bushings total instead of 4 like Low Range Off Roads wedsite specifies. My other concern was feedback from anyone who has used the OEM Toyota bushings with the Dakar leaf pack instead of the OME bushings but I think it's all going to work fine. Install is this Sunday.

 

looks great! what size rim and tire?

 

Thanks! 285/70/17

 

What is the bed rack?

 

Relentless Fabrication standard height cargo bed bars. Swapping out for the tall height bars whenever they get them to me.

 

I may be interested in snagging them from you when you do.

 

Those are 265's!? They look bigger than that. Great looking stance and truck!

 

Finally got the truck dialed in! Even if my setup has been done thousands of times by others...

Bilstein 5100s set at 0, OME 888, OME CS047R with overload installed, LF 1/4" top plate spacer, ECGS bushing, OME carrier bearing spacer, LR UCAs, SCS Stealth 6, 285/70R17 Cooper STT Pro. Aligned perfectly. No rubbing, no vibes, no nonsense. Not level, kept the factory rake. Couldn't be happier.

Still waiting for my armor!

 

Very nice! no rubbing at full lock either?

 

Haven't noticed anything, except one time reversing hard at full lock I heard it hit the fender liner.

I maxed out the cams on the LCA to swing the wheel forward, and adjusted the caster/camber using the UCA. Gives you an easy 1/2 inch more clearance off the cab mount. Plus, if it does rub, it'll hit plastic not metal. The tires rubbed on the cab mount before I did the alignment hack.

 

OME 887s, Icon 3 AAL, bilstein 5100s, spider trax 1-1/4 spacers. Put on a set of trd FJ wheels and 285 km2s.

 

Love those FJ's in the color. Clean look, great job!

 

a 2wd with diff lock can go almost anywhere the only thing you cant do is rock crawl, and honestly i doubt most people are actually do that with a stock truck!

 

You've never seen snow, have you...

 

yeah but 2wd with a locker = donut machine!! About all it'd be good for.

 

Live in southern AZ not a concern here!
