    Will a 1.25" spacer in the front level my truck? I know that a spacer kit isn't the best thing as far as suspension goes, but I only plan to run it for about a year until I save enough money to buy some top of the line struts. Just wanting to know if it'll sit level. Thanks in advance. :D

    Just a quick yes or no would be sufficient. Thanks

    Do you have the TSB AAL? If not, then yes, a 1.25'' spacer should get you close to level. If you do have the TSB AAL, then the rear will still be a little bit higher than the front.

    What I would do is just buy a pair of ome 883 coils or a set of 5100's for the front instead of the spacer. Even though you say a year like it isn't a long time if your unhappy with the ride of the truck w the spacer a year will seem longer than you think.

    Instead of spacers...buy the OME 885 lift could and put em on ur stock suspension.

    I have a 2011. It says that the 883 shock only fits up to the 09 Tacoma. Or is it because Toytech hasn't updated their site yet?

    There are a couple people on here who run the ome 883 springs which should give you about 1.5 lift. Just go to 2nd gen builds and in search type in 883 coils will bring up their build pages
