    I would demand a comparison. I would get stock height measurement and compare it to your truck and get a measurement of a truck with 888's.

    There should be a number on the spring, not the paper tag. Wipe them down with a rag and see if you can locate it.

    that's definitely noticeable even from a picture. probably easier to notice in person. like the above guy mentioned I would get the number and def do a comparison of the spring.

    De badged doors, sides & rear 5100's / 888 & Dakar leafs. SCS Ray 10's with 285/70/17's BFG KO2 Cab mount Chop
    I have a 2016 Toyota Tacoma DCSB, I ordered the Bilstein adjustable with 888 coils 1/4" spacer for drivers side and OME dakar leaf springs for the rear. I started with 21" in the front & 22" in the rear. When I did the lift I had about 23.75" in the front and 24" in the rear. Now after settling I have 23" front and 24" rear. I have rubbing for sure on the cab mount and a little on the plastic. I have tried to contact Bilstein /OME & "Headstrong" where I ordered the lift from and can't find an answer on how to get the lift level all the way around. I thought maybe add a top spacer to gain more lift but have not found any info on this problem. If anyone knows how to fix the problem please let me know.
