    So you should be right at 7" if you use their top plate spacer as well to get the full 3" of lift out of that combo.

    You are only running the spindles right now, correct? If you are installing billys, even set at 0", your Eibachs will give you about 1.6" of additional lift for a total of around 5.6" or so.


    unless I am missing something with your setup:confused:

    gotcha. then you should be right at where you are at now when you get your new setup. Just curious why you are replacing the spacer setup with the billy/eibach setup? I have heard the eibach's ride a little rougher but maybe they won't be as rough as what you have now??

    Refresh my memory....

    Mounted on top of the assembly (no disassembly of the shock/spring required) or is it the one requires disassembly of the shock/spring? Sorry for what might be a dumb question but I am working a military exercise and not used to this shift yet (4pm to midnight), lol...

    Removed the Mud Flaps, Rock Deflectors and Head Rest. Limo Tint, I had 3" Toytec Lift, Procomp Nitrogen ES6000 shocks and Struts. AllPro UCA, AFE Pro Dry drop in filter, WeatherTecs. Now I have LR UCA's, Maxtrac Spindles, Eibach's, 5100's up front, Expos, 5160 for the rear, U Bolt Flip Kit, and Extended Brake lines.
    Yeah billys set @ 0

    So the hole set up has to settle to give you guys an accurate measurement but all I can say is IT'S SITTING WAY TALL. So hopefully it will settle around the 25" +/- mark.
    Going to get an alignment in a few minutes and hopefully they understand how to align with the LR UCAs.
    Cross my fingers!

    Thanks JC.
    In the front I have Maxtrac Spindles, 5100's, Eibachs, and LR UCA's. It's sitting tall, if it does not settle by two inches I'm removing the coils and installing the stock ones.

    Once it settles ill find out what size block ill need. But forsure i will beh ig Allpro Expo' when a group buy, sale, or black Friday sale aars.


    Ahhh I'm having phone issues sorry for the miss spellings. I'll re write this when I get home.

    I'm @ 25.5" also. It looks like a beast! I have to say spindle lift on tacomas are hands down the way to go.
