    That's what my truck looked like yesterday :D You wouldn't be able to tell it was in that kind of water just by looking at how clean it is today though!

    Where is that anyways?

    Google map "Jenkinson Lake, Pollock Pines". MET is the road that goes across the two dams of that lake. Alternate Hwy 50 that dumps out on Hwy 88 west of Silver Lake.

    That's how I installed my 5100s the first time. It's the LCA method. Uses the articulation of the LCA to compress the springs safely in the assembly. I just took em out and used spring compressors since I was adding too plate spacers too.

    Anyone know the stock hub to fender height? front and rear. Just lifted mine n curious what numbers I got. I think I got too much and I'm worried I'm pushing 3.5.

    I put on 885x coils with the top plate spacer ( .5 inch thickness ). My hub to fender is 24 1/4. It seems a bit too hight.

    That seems like a lot. My 4 cyl reg cab went to 23" with 885x springs and no top plate. http://www.tacomaworld.com/forum/su...me-kit-rear-brake-lines-pics.html#post2224704

    I'm guessing you're not running a heavy bumper and winch combo? Prolly best to take out that top plate.

    EDIT - you are measuring from the CENTER of the hub to the fender, right?

    No, no bumper, yet. It just find it odd. Toytec sells this lift as a package and I installed it to their recommended specs. It drives alright. I'll see tomorrow if it has settled at all in the morning.

    If i have the spacers, and the longer top bolts will I be able to use the extended bolts? I don't think my buddy saved the stock ones. They were in his shop kinda thrown about. (dammit)

    I need help from someone in Sac. My wife lost her phone last night and I'm pretty sure its on CL. They wont respond to my text, but probably because my number is all over the phone. can someone text or call and see if they will send you a picture of the phone. If its a blue one with an all white silicone case then see if you can get them to read the MEID number off the back under the battery and PM it to me.

    Please only one person so they dont get suspicious. post here before you call/text.

    Thanks,

    False alarm on Seth's phone. It's the wrong color.
