Leveling Kit

Let me know the results. I been wanting to change back to my 2015 trd billies and see if it improved the ride.

 

I wouldn't use the stock shocks as the AAL will give it full droop to its max @ least the 5100s have an extra inch of travel to compensate for the lift

 

I agree but that would have to be one hell of a pot hole for my street queen!

 

Alright finally installed my suspension & the ride quality in the rear is a little stiff but not harsh a few ppl here was saying that a single AALs ride quality will be harsh but in my opinion it's not that bad.

 

I agree with you. I haven't found a good enough excuse to try the 3 leaf progressive.

Your leaf also looks shorter than my single.

 

Toytec 's site advertised that these are the "long" styled AALs for better ride quality

 

Hey Jeff,

I just picked up my first taco and its a 2016 offroad extended cab. I sae you recommended the 2" front spacer. How much did it lift your truck overall? I saw that some people added a 2.5 in front and a 1 in rear and was thinking of doing that for the added height. Any thoughts?

 

I read through the first few pages of this thread, don't want to go through the whole damn thing. I'm just curious about maybe adding .75" or 1" spacers on my FOX 2.5 IFPs to level it out a little. I did a 3" lift all around with a full FOX kit from Headstrong and I'm thinking i want to cut some of the rake. So is there strong recommendation AGAINST adding small spacers onto FOX coilovers? Is there any negative effect in general? What about without a swaybar?

 

I am looking to change my tacoma leveling kit I see alot of good stuff with the Bilstein 5100s adjustables i like the idea of being able to adjust the front so I can keep a slight rake

 

Are the wheels 16"?

 

Do you have a pic of before and after?

 

recommendations for aggressive tires?

 

Wildpeak atw3.

 

Cooper st maxx. Excellent on road manners in all conditions and look bad ass.

 

So I read through the entire thread and what I have gathered is...Please correct/edit what needs to
17 stock limited will be running 265/65/18 duratracs.

I will need the following
5100's X 4
AAL ( progressive 3 leaf will be best ride, with some off road capability?)
885 coils

run ALL the 5100's @ 0
** This setup will be a 2" lift?**


Will I need new control arms, remove the needle bearing? I am trying to gain a little clearance without having to do mass modifications..

If you are bored links to these products of known good sites would be excellent as well. Because there are SO many options, they all look the same, yet im sure they are not.

Thanks in advance.

 

Just gonna say I read this entire thread looking for info and EatSleepTacos seems like a super amazing guy for taking the time to explain everything. Kudos to you.

 

@EatSleepTacos Very late, but I appreciate your in-depth explanation. Helped a new taco owner out.

 

Awesome, I’m glad my posts were able to help you out.
