    I don't see any reason why the LR UCA's would not run with stock tires.
    I could be wrong, but I would think it would clear.

    Sorry that does not make sense. Sounds like you are saying it should fit fine correct?

    Na, we both think you will have more clearance than stock. :)

    X2. The LR UCA's will give a bit more clearance than the OEM arms.

    Hi Darrick,

    I installed a 3'' spacer on my 05 tacoma. I do like the ride height. However, i hate the fact that it has a harsh ride such as I bottom out whenever I go over a speed bump. In your experiences, what do you think I can do to resolve this. Oh, I am not a serious off-roader. With that in mind you can narrow down to more precise options. I don't want to spend to much money on lifts...

    I hope you can help me out to explain this.

    Thank you

    Hello,
    Usually when you replace the stock suspension with longer gear, you will end up with a better ride. If you can't afford our adjustable coilover's up front, I would highly consider OME at the least for a full front coilover replacement.

    Does that make sense?

    I'd think you would need to post more details of your setup. If all you did is wedge in a spacer and everything else is stock (coils, shocks), then yeah, you will have a horrible feeling ride.
    You mentioned on road, but do you have any other things we should know about? Hauling?

    Just straight off the cuff, you can go with either OME or Bilsteins depending on what suits you - as far as you are concerned, it's whatever matches budget and install abilities.

    LOL it went from about $1000 to $1500. Trying to not go overboard, but at the sametime trying to get a complete package done right.

    Orginally was just gonna do 5100's all around, TSB lear, TC UCA, diff & carrier drop kits. Since nobody seems to have 5100's front and rears, I will be spending almost $400 to get from different vendors on shocks alone.

    Long story short and after trolling threads on TW :p , I'm pretty set on the OME lift kit with the added Toytec spacer and TSB leaf on your site. I have a DC with no intentions of adding any bumpers/winches other then a light bar. I guess 885's with be okay, right?

    Do you have the latest OME coils that been corrected of the "sag" issue from the earlier post mentioned on this thread?

    I totally understand.
    Yes, we do carry the newer style OME springs.
    And yes, the 885's would be the spring selection for the double cab.

    PM sent with discount code.
