    Ive read all possible thread on this and getting ready to make a decision.

    So going 5100 with stock coils at .85. Now Im thinking ome 883 and get some new top plates and not have to take apart my old springs. save them for another day. Would 883 make the truck look too lifted in the front or basically the same as stock set at .85. Does any one know where i can get some top plates??

    Also any input on best ride would be great. I will make sure to do a write up on what ever i do

    Thanks

    883s alone will lift a 4wd DCSB about 1.3", your AC maybe a bit more. If you have the TSB rear leafs the lift from the 883s alone should be about perfect to get you closer to level, probably still have a bit of forward rake.

    It is not recommended to preload the 883s (5100s set at .85) but I believe many here do...

    Had 5100s and 885s installed today, waiting for daylight tomorrow to get better measurements but quick measure in the driveway this evening got me @ 3 inches. That was with the 5100s set to "0" and no additional spacers.

    This is on a 2013 DCLB TRD Sport.

    I got new top plates from the dealership, mainly because i had the truck in pieces when i realized i needed new ones. I just swapped the 883s for stock coils yesterday. I was tired of the jarring ride on back roads. I had the 5100s set at. 85 with them and the ride was level (rear tsb aal).

    I have the 883's with the 5100's set at 0. Mine is a prerunner and I do not have the tsb rear springs and mine sits level. The ride is great .
