Bilsteins 5100s with 33s

thanks!

OME 881's with billstein 5100's set at zero on the front and the wheelers 5 leaf pack (made by alcan) out back.

 

looks good. im getting bilsteins soon just going to set it at 2.5 right now and a aal in the rear until i get more funds

 

That'll work, just be ready for a stiff ride.

 

Barely clears the UCA (~1/4") BFG A/T's

 

man im tired of hearing about this, if you get the correct backspacing your truck doesnt rub.......... i have a 3" lift with 285/70/17x9 with -12 offsett and no ribbing at with stock flares....

 

Doesn't matter which direction I turn, and it doesn't matter forward or reverse. I just make sure not to lock the wheel in either direction and i'm fine. No fender contact at all.

 

well i cant get wheels rite now so im having to use the stock wheels

 

is it that bad? i was thinking about getting the ome lift but didnt know how the ride compared and i know that bilsteun has a better warranty on product so that made me want 5100s

 

Not bad at all, lots of people have that same setup.

 

its not bad, alot of people use their stock rims but they are also the people who are having alot of rubbing and triming issues. you can talk to a local wheel/tire shop and give them specs on your wheel and tire package your going with and they can give you specs on what size of wheel spacers to use.

 

idk if the wheel spacers were cheap or not. but ive seen and read alot of wheel spacers breaking and doing serious damage to the truck. but i will do some checking

 

does anyone have any pics of 33x10.50s?

 

I called 2 local offroad shops (Mobile, Al.) today and they both told me that Bilstein 5100s would not fit my 1st generation truck.

So do they fit a stock 1998 Trd or not?

 

i just bought some 5100s for 1998 tacoma and i have seen where alot of people have put them on this year, call downsouth motorsports and they can tell you everything you need to know or any questions. they are also a member on here

So I had to cut a lot more to be able to take the truck off road. After all the cutting I didn't rub at all.

Looking at it from the side of the truck you really can't even tell it's been cut.




This is all the other shit i had to cut off.

 

I have 33x12.5's on the Bilstein lift and only rub when at full turn going over bumps. I didnt have to do any trimming

 

heres mine(avatar and sig). 33x10.5 KM2's i did cut a lot of plastic but the cab mounts i jus got a hammer and bent them in. no scrubbin now except for my front bumper when turnin on a bump because i hit a deer......see the dent in my sig?? thats where it rolled and hit agn can get pics of where i cut is you want

 

yea man if you dont mind psoting some pics of where you cut that would be cool im going to get some 33x10.50 bfg A/T. how do you like the ride of the km2s and how may miles do you have and ho much tread wear?

 

ill get some pics asap tmrw! aint exactly sure on the miles! but they ride really well except for my rears are out of line really bad so it shakes BAAAD! this aint on all km2s just mine! but i put them on sometime around last march 15th-20th and about 3/4 of that time they were drove about 45 miles a day and about 50 miles a week 1/4 of that time and they have about 60% - 70% tread left

 

does that depend on the amount of back spacing yuo have with your wheels
