    Really? i would thing those would be too soft? Probably wrong though. My buddy has 881's on a xtra cab and I still wouldn't think it's enough. Thanks for the correction :)

    My bad. I thought you were listing all the OME replacement coils for the first gens. :eek: Yeah, the 880's only give about an inch of lift.

    I just looked it up,
    They say that the 800's are "Comfort" spring with 1.25"-1.5" of lift, 881's are medium with 1.75" to 2" of lift, and 882's are firm and recommended only for double cabs and access cabs with added weight.

    I had just never heard of anyone using the 800's so MY bad :)

    It depends on your usage and off-road mods. I'm running 886s and with full armor, a shell, & ARB bumper they required 1" Toytec spacers to maintain even lift.

    would the ride of the replacement be better then the spacer?

    On a second gen? Use the 884's and the top plate spacer they come with.

    if you use the 885 rather than 884 on the access cab is it bad? i understand they are used for heavier front ends but what if i wanted to buy the 885 just incase i decided to put on a heavy bumper in the future?

    getting there....
    you wont have any problems......the front may sit a little higher unless you add an aal .....maybe 2 inch aal to the rear...and the ride may be a bit stiffer.....but it should be ok.

    It may ride more stiff. The 885's are recomended for double cabs because of the extra weight. It wouldnt hurt anything running them on an acces cab, other than put the CV's at a bad angle, since it would give a little more lift.
