Lift problems help!

I have a 2007 tacoma with a 6 inch procomp lift. It rides like shit! I have blocks in the rear and Above Coil Spacers.

I am thinking on getting the OME dakar leaf pack and bilstein coilovers for the front

Will my lift height change? I am completely lost.


What is the best route to go from here? Thanks!

 

Your ride quality will not change if you keep those spacers and blocks. Getting rid of them will obviously lower your truck but your ride quality will improve tremendously. With the new coil overs and leaf pack, you’ll regain some lift but only maybe 3”. It’s up to you to decide either the big lift or ride quality.

 

Ah shit! Is there any way around that? because I don't have any of the stock stuff and its set up for a 6 inch with the struts and everything.

 

I had Dakar’s with 5100 and ome springs on my 2nd gen and I liked it for 90street/10dirt and I didn’t have any complaints but to answer your question, your going from a 6” lift to a 3” lift so yes you should in theory lose 3” but gain a lot of comfort I would imagine.

 

I dont think I can goto a 3 inch I don't have any of my stock stuff. is there any way around this?

 

You need full coils in the front to smooth it out. The 6" lift with spacers adds a lot of weight that the factory spring and shock have to deal with.

BDS makes my favorite 6" coil, but any extended coil will be an improvement.

 

This truck went from 6" to 3" LT IIRC.

Alright that solves my front thank you good sir!!

How do I deal with the rear ??? OME leaf pack or add a leaf and good shocks + like a 2 inch block?

I am looking at this if I convert to 3 inch or this if i stay with 6 inch https://www.bilsteinlifts.com/shop/...overs-shocks-kit-for-2005-2015-toyota-tacoma/

Thoughts?

Take a look at this thread for all 6" lift info

For fronts I personally recommend RCD extended bilstein 5100s paired with en Eibach/Toytec 620 coil. this is the setup I run on my 6" setup. No spacers needed.

 

I assume you just used the Bilstein extended rear shocks with the coils?

 

these?

 

I believe King makes some for 6 inch drop brackets there's also Fox and I believe Icon. Reach out to the companies and see what they have that's compatible with the pro comp kit up front. If you have the money throw on a leaf pack while your at it and your ride should significantly improve.

 

The vertex ones look sweet might go with them!


Thank you good sir

 

Right now I have stock leafs from a 2016 taco. I am going to either buy an OME Dakar pack or add some leafs!

 

Unless your mind is set on the 6" lift, you can always find a local body shop to fab and weld the crossmember back then invest in a 3" lift. You will be more pleased with the ride and performance of a 3" lift vs a drop bracket.

 

Yeah I know but I wanna stay 6 inch for offroad clearance plus i plan to get some 35s.

 

Wrong you want the fronts for the front. Here is a link to the combo although you mostly need the front:

For front setup: You want the RCD/Bilstein 4 inch Front Lift shocks for Toyota Tacoma 6-Lug 2005-2015 part number F4-BE5-E122-T0

paired with these:

112-620-P - Toytec/Eibach front coil lift springs
