New OME 888 Coil

j5Taco - I have stock OEM control arms.

SteenosMT - Looks good! I'm not sure if you'll need wheel spacers or not since you've upgraded your UCAs. With stock UCAs and stock rims you need to add wheel spacers to keep 285s from rubbing the UCAs.

 

Thank you for the reply sir! Your truck looks great! Did you end up doing Extended Brake Lines? Mine were pretty tight.

 

Front or back?

Want to post some center hub to fendermeasurements now and a few weeks from now when it settles? You know you wanna...

Looks good!

 

Thanks! The rear brake lines were tight. I measured the day after the install. 24 inches in the rear and 23.5 inches in the front.

 

Gah! So broke from moving. I’d hate to need them and not have them. Might just buy since it’s cheaper all together

 

So the kit from headstrong, the 0.25" spacer for the drivers side goes between the top of the assembled shock and the mount? Correct?

 

Yep

 

Thanks, I'm 48 hrs away from the install, a bit nervous

 

Even after I put the spacer, it's still a little low on the driver's side. Barely noticeable though.
What are you nervous about? Lol

 

ECGS, CMC, just to name a couple. Will it need a sway bar relocate?

 

Not sure if it needs to be relocated. I don't want to feed you any shit. I don't even have 888's. I'm just subscribed to this thread until I decide whether I need 886 or 888's.
Personally, I like to relocate the sway bar to a nice dark corner in the garage.

 

ECGS? Do it anyway. Small price to pay to save a future headache.

CMC? Because even a hefty 265 tire will rub; might as well fix what Toyota didn't.

 

IMO, with the stock wheels and 285's, you would most likely need the wheel spacers do to the factory wheel offset and backspace.

 

Forgive my noob question here, but I am running the Pro suspension on my 2017, and 285/70/16. (I haven't seen anyone do the swap with Pro suspension)
If I go with 888, will my rubbing issues be solved?
Right now i'm rubbing hard off road and coming in/out of driveways while turning (with a couple of big dudes w/ me).

 

I have a 2017 access cab with 5100 front and rear with 888 in the front (factory upper control arm) and Wheelers 2" add a leaf in the rear. I have no complaints with the 888"s in the last two months I have probably put 300 miles of snow wheeling and fast desert driving on them. Defiantly would recommend them.

 

How much total lift did it end up getting you? And what size tires are you running? I'm debating between the 887's and the 888's

 

Haven't taken new measurements but it was enough lift to get me down all the trails I use to hit my skid plate on without even coming close. I just put 285 75/16 on and had just a little rub on driver side upper control arm at full lock in reverse so I put spidertrax 1.25 spacers on and now have zero rubbing. I would go with 888s especially if you plan on doing a bumper or a winch at some point in time

 

Excellent. I was leaning towards the 888's so I appreciate the advice.

 

@SeaJax no rubbing and no trimming? Awesome. What’s the offset on your rims? I heard if the rims are 0 offset you won’t have to do any trimming and no rubbing.

 

KrnTaco08 - No rubbing anywhere, no trimming needed at all. I don't think it's even close to rubbing. I believe my offset was 1 and backspacing was 5" .
