    finally done! 5100s and 885x with 1/4 inch spacers up front with Dakars and extended travel 5100s out back! I ended up needed professional help, my LCA bushings and cams were rusted solid, along with my lower strut bolts. that was and added 357 bucks for parts but well worth it!!! it drives better than the day I bought it. measurements to follow!

    Update: I recently installed the All-Pro expedition bumper, IFS and Transmission skid, and a 20" Light bar. No winch yet.

    I am running the 885 coils up front. After a few weeks it looks like the front has settled at 22" from center lug to fender. That is about a 3/4" drop.

    Rear is 23.5" with the toytec 1.5" AAL.

    I am probably upgrading to 886's shortly.

    ok I have my numbers to put up.

    DF-24
    DR-25

    PF-24.1/2
    PR-25.1/4

    Install was Tuesday, and I took these numbers with almost a full tank of gas.

    just for reference guys..

    I installed the OME 13mm spacers up front in addition to the 885 springs over the weekend. it added 1" of height (3/4"-7/8" advertised). I was looking at raising the front to even out the stance but I removed the spacers & will be removing the 3rd leaf from top of the Dakar's, possibly one over load spring as well.

    I'm just about to order mine. I have a DCLB so I think I will still go with the 13mm. I was thinking of getting the 1/4 poly spacer for driver side lean. It's only like $7.

    You got 4" out of the Dakars eh?

    Good to know... I like a little rake but I'm 2" higher in the rear right now stock. I have the 4 leaf pack on my 13'. I'd like to be 1" higher after everything is installed.
