I bought a Lifted 2nd gen and i have some questions

Hello,

I purchased a 2015 Tacoma with a Eibach lift kits. From my understand it has an adjustable front coilover. How Can i figure out what height it is set at? It needs a alignment and im trying to figure out if i need new UCA.

Thank you

 

The adjustability is in the bottom of the coil spring bucket. Notice the faint lines you can see on the shock body for the coilovers. There is a small snap ring that you install to set it.

Here is a link to the install directions, page 2 shows the detail.

Your pictures hide this section behind the sway bar.

 

In the rear it looks like a 1" spacer under the leafs. Rear shocks don't have any impact on height.

Is the truck level?

And as @ZColorado says, we can't see the perch settings.

Technically an adjustable coilover (well, fully adjustable) has a threaded shock body meaning lots of incremental adjustments are possible. Ones like this and Bilsteins have perch adjustments, so usually 2-4 choices.

 

I measured that rear block and it is 1". The truck looks level as far as I can tell.

 

Hard to know for sure, but I'd suspect the front is up about 2-2.5".

Depends on the perch selection and spring specs.

 

It looks like there's 2 snap ring groves visible

 

If there are two visible then you are at 0.8" of lift according to the manual.

You dont need new UCAs.

However, if they are worn out you can replace the entire UCA with one off a 3rd gen truck. In my area there are always takeoffs available on craiglist or marketplace.

 

Everything seems to be good beside the tires are toed in a little, it rides nice. Thank you for all the info, im new to lifts and Tacomas so there's a definite learning curve.

 

I recommend these videos.
