Maxtrac Spindle Lift for 2nd Gen Prerunners

I've been running with maxtracs for couple years now with 5100 set at 3 with stock spring. Decided to change my set up and it rides alot better with OME. But my rear has a sag and was wondering if I should get a bigger block or new leaf pack to fix this?

Here's my current set up:
Bruteforce fab hybrid bumper
5100 set at 0 with OME 886
Freedom offroad UCA
2inch block rear
Extended 5100 rear
Toytec add a leaf on stock leaf pack
All pro bed rack
Bruteforce rear bumper
SCS BR6 with 285/75/16 KO2

 

Truck looks bad ass!

I would definitely get some replacement leaf packs. Dakars, Deavers, Alcan, Icon Rtx (or something) lots of good options out there just got to feel it out and see what suits your rig best.

 

Thanks bro. I was thinking about getting these OME Dakar medium duty leaf pack. I don't do any towing or won't be adding any more weight to the rear. Plus the bed rack might even come off haha. Would this fix my problem?

Might get ya closer! A custom leaf pack from Alcan would be super nice and I would like to go that route someday.

Those Dakars with half inch 'block' is what I run. Probably a 1" would have been perfect

 

This question has probably been asked already but who here is on wheelers superbumps up front? And if you are did you need to get a spacer for it?

 

Spacer not needed for me

 

I also did not need a spacer for mine!

 

Sweet thanks fellas

 

Just added glass (a work in progress...). Looking to go with a spindle lift next, so questions will be coming! Not sure which route to go with my current set up? It's the Toytec ultimate with the heavier springs due to the weight of the front bumper. The ride is extremely stiff after I switched to heavier springs, with the small shop in town not sure exactly how to set it up. I really am looking for some height and more importantly, a better ride. Hoping to get some good info here. I have SPC UCAs as well...Thanks to all in advance!

 

I'm betting those are #700 lb spring rate coils. I would go with 650s and see what you think. Your setup is good to go with the spindles. Just sounds like spring swap would be it.

 

Thanks for the help ChadsPride!

 

You bet man! Those fenders look great and your trucks bad ass!!

 

Thanks Chad! I have been on here for over ten years, just never posted much. I call the taco my twenty-year (at least) build. I have watched your truck over the years, rig is sick, quite an inspiration! I use your build to learn how it's done right! I went with the Ridge Grapplers based on your recommendations! I really wish I went with the SCS F5s though, I would like to go without the fake bead locks...more stuff to change, lol

 

Hell yeah I really appreciate that!! These trucks are so awesome I hope to have it as long as possible!

 

What was your front setup? Just the 4" spindles? What was your setup in the back? I like the stance of your truck

 

I'm having these 4" spindles installed on my truck(with bilstein 5100s at o setting and stock spring). For the rear my truck will have stock leafs(with factory overload leaf and Icon 1.5" mini leaf pack and 5100s) would the overload spring coupled with my icon 1.5" aal equate to 2" of lift in the rear? I'm trying to get a visual how my truck would look. I like a leveled look but not too much of a front lean. Anyone have a setup similar? Or pictures?

 

You probably won't get 2" of lift out of the rear with just the AAL. If you want it to sit close to level without any rake I would throw these shackles on with the AAL.

It says these are for 1st gen Tacomas. You think they would work for a 2nd gen? Thanks for the link

 

I would go with new leaf springs.
