Top Plate Spacers with OME Coils?

I’ve been trying to decide what to do next with my lift setup and one option is replacing the stock coils with OME 881 coils and setting my 5100s to the bottom setting. I’ve heard that the 881s might not give enough lift so I talked to Marie from Headstrong Off-road and she mentioned using a top plate spacer like this one to get the extra height. So what are the pros and cons of running these top plate spacers and is any other first gen using them?

 

How much lift are you trying to get to? 881s w/ 5100s give about 2-2.5inches. If you're only looking to get another half an inch, I'd check out the Toytec 3inch lift coils with 5100s.

 

I’m wanting about 3 inches but the Toytec/eibach coils are too heavy for my 4cyl extended cab and will give me closer to like 3.5 or so inches according to others. And they also make the ride more stiff due to the higher spring rate.

 

Hmmm. Maybe try this thread. There is some good information on OME 880 series coils. https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/first-gen-ome-coil-info.117492/
