1/4 inch driver side spacer with 5100s

So I got 5100s with OME 887x, but read a bunch online about sagging issues so I’ve decided to stick with the OEM TRD OR coils, but since I am no longer using an aftermarket coil, do I still need a driver side spacer to account for lean. What is your guys experience with that? I should mention I’m doing a 2 inch lift with an AAL in the rear

 

5100s for 3rd gen OR are an "extended length" coilover at 22.22 in. rather than a 21+ incher. Adding a 1/4" spacer puts it at 22.47 in., which is as close to any brand extended coilover length due to pushing the cv axle angle maxs.

Much easier to use an additional clip up of preload the on drivers side. If you have to have the 2" lift max on both sides instead of 1.5" net, then run the spacer.

 

Oem Coils are side specific, they paint dot marks on them to determine which side is which. So no Taco lean spacer is needed in that setup.

With extended travel shocks like the 5100's and 6112's, Now if you are running an OEM CV axle then adding a 1/4" spacer is ok but it is about the limit before you start to see some CV axle binding. (Pretty much the wheel would have to be off the ground or fully flexed out).

On a rare occastion, I have seen CV axle binding (Extended travel + 1/4" spacer) on some aftermarket CV axles though, so the short answer is, it depends. (Again the wheel pretty much off the ground or fully flexed out).
