    The idea is to push the tire forward in the wheel well, so there is no scrubbing when turning and when compressed.

    No worries. Once these trucks are lifted factory alignment specs aren’t going to do the job. Tracking , tire wear etc. every truck will be different. Those are the numbers I run. Tire wear etc. is great. Tracking on freeway great. I’m also running pizza cutters 255’s

    I ordered my 6112 pre assembled with 650# springs. Just wanted to double check that they came with the proper springs before I install them. Anyone know if this is the proper part number? I couldn’t seem to find a definitive answer. Thanks

    Edit: I see you went with the 650 rated springs. I have a 2013 as well with an ARB bumper, 160lbs, no winch. I plan on upgrading to 6112s do you think the 650s would be overkill for my setup?

    So I have a 23’ Taco on order and read through this thread a month ago or so. Decided on the 6112/5160 combo. Going to set the front at 9/7 for 1.4” lift. I was thinking of just adding a 1” block for a 1/2” rake but the seemed kinda….not right for a nice setup of shocks. Stumbled across the Deaver J66, can’t find much on it is anyone running or ran this setup?

    Will you be towing, hauling loads often, or adding weight to rear? If not, the block should be just fine.

    Anyone have pics of the 0.4 or 0.7" front setup on #600 coils? Most pics I've seen here are going for 1.4"+

    No it won’t be loaded with anything. It’ll be my daily driver and used for yard work etc. Only thing I’d be towing on a trailer is leaves to the dump and maybe a few dirt bikes. So it’d be a small single axle trailer with not much weight

    Looks like that adds 2” of lift without any weight. 99% of the time there’s nothing loaded in the back. Thanks for the recommendation though!

    Has anyone pushed the bushing out of the bottom eyelet? PITA or easy peasy? Had them installed about 2.5yrs and its time to replace.. Number on the side 90389-A0001 for a replacement, I'll chime back in when the new ones show up and I get it figured out.

    When we build them they have a slight bump, but not nearly as much as what it looks like in that photo.

    If you're not asking for load carrying capacity out of your rear end, and you just need a little bit of lift I am perfectly comfortable recommending a small block to you. A 1"er isn't going to hurt a thing, and isn't doing your overall suspension a disservice.

    Also, if you haven't sourced your suspension parts yet we have everything you need (shocks, rear lift bits, etc) here on the shelf at Hotshot Offroad :)

    It's easy. They'll provide a bit of tension, but crack the seal and they fly right outta there.
