Gen 2 lift with 5100 / OME 884’s

I tried searching and found lots of conflicting information.

I have a 2012 TRD OR access cab. With the combination listed in the title what can I expect on average for a lift in inches front and back? The kit comes with a single AAL for the rear.

If it’s under 2” could I add a 1/4” spacer on the passenger side and a 1/2” on the drivers side for the lean and additional lift. I want to end up in the 2” - 2.5” range for lift.

I’m about to hit 100,000 miles on the stock stuff and figure if I’m going to refresh it I might as well add a couple inches while doing so.

TIA

 

5100 with 884s gave me about 2” of lift. The issue is there is some dynamic information coming from arb (ome) on actual lift heights. Headstrong off road is a good resource.

That said even at the high end of the estimation, 884s will provide 2” on dcsb 2nd gens. I would consider 885s if you want to get to 2.5”.

FYI, my experience has taught me to consider aftermarket uppers mandatory for any lift to restore the alignment. With stock arms my alignment is in the green but i am not happy with the way it drives.

I have no comment on the single aal, as I used a progressive and left the ol spring in. 2” of lift exactly and rides better than stock.

Good luck

 

No one else run 884 springs?

 

I have the 884/5100 setup on my dcsb. I’ve been happy with it. Started with around 2.25” when new. Now I think it’s around 2”. Maybe a little less. And ucas aren’t necessary but I think it would drive a lot better.

And yes the spacers could work.

 

My understanding is, the 884 will give you 2 1/2 inches of lift on a dcsb prerunner and 2 inches on a 4x4 dcsb. Some ware on here some posted a chart from OME that states the different springs. If memory serves me right I think if you contact headstrong off road ( Maria) mite be Abel to send you out one.
