bilstein HDs setup

hi i have a 2000 tacoma 4x4. I have bilstein hds on the front and back and 2-2.5 in spacers in the front and on the rear leafs. Does anyone know of any front coils that can get me another inch or more? i just put the shocks on so i dont really want to get 5100's.


thanks,

nick

edit. I think the coils are stock, bought truck 20k ago

 

You're limited by travel, so you're basically at the highest you can get it right now, without a drop bracket lift. Most of us don't like spacers though. They're not really a good way to lift the truck.

 

Your CV boots are already touching meaning your CV is at a severe angle. Next option is drop bracket lift kit or body lift.

 

okay cool thanks for the info guys i will look into that

also, would it be in my interest to do one of those options, because i dont want to damage my cvs i just put the axles on 2 months ago

 

The problem is the cheapest solution will be to get 5100s. The CVs are at that angle because the suspension is maxed out. Adding a body lift won't help. And a DB lift will cost more than 5100s. You're not really at a loss taking out the spacers, those cost next to nothing anyways

 

okay i might have to do that. thank you for your info sir. I really only want maybe 1 more inch anyway in the front, ill post a pic later

 

You'll need to go 5100s to bring the suspension to a "good" level first (drop it down some), then probably add a 1" body kit to get the desired height.

 

and remove the spacers also right?

here are some picture of how she sits right now. and i would be happier if i could achieve the same height plus 1 in the front without spacers. i really don't know much about suspension work
