    There have been some requests and disagreements whether or not you can do a toytec 3" lift and still have the ability to get your taco to properly align with stock control arms. Adjustment on the Bilstien 5100 is 2nd notch up from the bottom and spacers used as well to get full 3". So per requests, here are the specs that proof that very well can happen..

    This is encouraging as my 3" ToyTec lift is going on Saturday. What exact ToyTec kit did you buy?

    I'm going to be running:

    Front: ToyTec/Eibach 521600 coils, 1/2" ToyTec top-plate spacers, 5100's set to 0.0"
    Rear: ToyTec/Deaver 1.5-2.0" AAL, OEM Bilstein HD shocks

    Stock UCA's, no diff drop, no carrier bracket drop, no rear axle shims

    Sounds like the same kit. $649 plus $60 for spacers. Everyone talks about the 5100s being set at zero. I assume this means the c clip at the very bottom of the shock. It says for double cabs and a full 3" to put the clip at the 2nd setting up from the bottom. That's what I did. You will love it. Rides as good or better than stock. It will align fine. I also put the add a leaf in the rear

    I think it depends on what ToyTec/Eibach coils you got with that kit, I'm not sure by its description. I got the 521600 coil which is quoted at 2.5".

    while that might be "in spec" you are on the very low end of caster and camber.... truck will probably have a tendency to wander.

    I've been stealing enough threads, I chose to create my own to get some specific feedback on my lift install

    I have this exact setup with the top plate spacer for the double cab. Did u use the 1/4" spacer on the driver side for lean? And did u need uca's? Will be installing mine within the next week or so.
