Sorry..... Another suspension spacer thread..

Would it be retarded to get some spacers until I can afford the Toyotec Ultimate package?

I want to get my truck level.

 

Even with the relative cheap cost of the spacers, I would pass if I was you and use that money towards the ultimate kit...

 

Yeah Thats what I was thinking. But I need the front to get up a few inches.

It will probably look higher once or if I take off the side steps

 

Every dollar you spend now is a dollar more you have to save down the line. You also gotta think about the time/money involved in the install. Not huge, but it is all an investment.

 

skip on the spacers. especially if you know for sure you are gonna get the ultimate lift...................otherwise, get a set of 5100's and use them.

 

Dang I keep on forgetting about the 5100s!!!! Will they work with the OEM setup?

 

Thats very true...

 

yep.....they sure will.

 

How do I adjust them again?


4wheelparts.com is having some good deals on the 5100s right now

 

Yeah it is. I had to talk my wife into letting me spend 650 MORE than planned for me to get the TC UCAs with all my OME stuff. But I told her- ONE day on the lift, ONE alignment- It's cheaper that way...even if I do have to spend more up front. Same with the brake lines...Did I NEED them...not right now...but it'll all be apart....so why not??

What did you mean by will 5100's work with the OEM set up??

 

they have a clip that you move into the slot for the amount of lift you want. and hell with 4wheelparts.......................downsouth motorsports(a vendor of ours) is the place to get them man. sonny has some awesome customer service!!

 

haha You tell her Brunes! jk.

Like if the 5100s will be compatible with the OEM suspension.

 

Again..... I talked to Sonny about them. And I was about to let the deal slip

 

im gonna say if you get them anywhere...get them from dsms!

 

I probably will. Awesome prices and then TW discount

How far will the OEM suspension go? lift wise

 

you can do 6 inches with the right kit...........and gotlift97 had like 9 inches with his lift i think. all depends on what you do. is that what you are asking?

 

If all possible you should skip the spacers and keep saving your money. I have been extremely disappointed with the ride quality after installing my spacer lift. Sure it looks good with 3 inches of lift, but it rides rougher than a 1 ton dually. After 8 months of feeling as if I am driving on a board, the lift is coming off this weekend.

Whenever I can stomach $1000 bucks for a good pair of coil overs, and another $650 for some UCAs, I'll probably lift it again. Until that happens, it is staying stock.

Just my .02 cents.

 

No like with just the Billys how high can you go with the stock suspension?

 

ah....you can set those up on 2.5 inches, and you can add some 10mm trim packers, you'd be right at 3 inches.

 

Well dang I wouldn't even need the Toytec kit then.

but Im still going to change to Toytec and CHaos UCAs
