    If the spacers measure 1 1/2”, then it’s a 3” lift. I don’t quite understand how it’s works, but you double the height of the spacer for the actual amount of lift. Truck looks good with the 5100s on it now!

    The shock mounts near the middle of the lower control arm. Move the middle of the control arm 1", the end of it moves 2".

    I went with the Rancho Quicklift. I don’t need anything crazy because it’s on the street most of the time, except for the trips on the beach in the summer. It rides great now. I was worried that it would ride rough.

    The day I bought it vs. now...

    Before:
    Original TRD suspension
    worn down 265/70R16 tires.
    -.5" lift from 16 years of abuse
    IMG_20200307_204333.jpg


    After:
    OME Dakars standard load leafs
    Bilstein 5100s all around with OME 880s installed
    265/75R16 Falken Wildpeaks
    ~1" lift.
    After 1.5 years the 5100s developed a nasty clunk and I tossed em in the parts bin.
    IMG_20200814_184946.jpg

    After After (now):
    OME Dakars extra load leafs (constantly loaded with camping junk)
    Toytec Alumas front and rear, JBA upper control arms
    285/75R17 KO2s wrapped around SCS Ray10s 17x9
    Current lift height ~2.25"
    Best part is I get 1 mpg more with this setup for whatever reason! :D
