5100s and Taco lean

I'm sure I could find it if I searched, but I'm about to leave for work...

I just ordered adjustable 5100s to hold me over until I can afford OME. I'm just leveling the front of my 2012 AC 4.0L. My truck has wicked Taco lean. Do I need a spacer for the driver side, or can I bump up the adjustment of the shock on that side? Thank you in advance for your answers and not flaming me for not searching.

 

Taco lean is about 0.5". The settings on the 5100 shocks are 0, 0.87", 1.75" and 2.5", too coarse for taking out the lean. Use the TP14 spacer from Toytec on the driver side to take out the lean.

 

Thank you! Just left a voicemail with Wheelers

 

If using stock coils, you may have put them wrong. I believe the stock drivers spring is a bit longer than the passenger.

 

Yep

 

Yeah if your using stock coils and you have taco lean you put them in on the wrong side. Take the whole assemblies out and swap sides with them and that should take care of it.

 

Shocks and spacer on order from wheelers. They called me as soon as they opened. I'll make sure to get the springs on the correct sides. Thanks for the heads up on that.

 

Actually the shocks should be universal unless using factory springs which hasn't been answered. If going with the OME 885 coils, it shouldn't matter. With that being said, when I got my preassembled coils/springs from wheelers, they were labeled with drivers and passenger.

 

my truck had taco lean from the factory even with stock shocks. still has it with 5100s now.

 

Is this just noticeable on 4x4's? I swear I can see Taco lean on my '14 Tacoma, but perhaps I'm just not looking gat perfectly level surfaces.

 

Will be swapping the stock coils over. I just want to level it and get a little extra clearance for now without dropping too much coin. Thanks for all the advice, and special thanks to Wheeler's for their prompt and friendly customer service!

 

my stock truck had the lean. Threw 5100's on set at 1.75 and it still had the lean, threw a 1/4in top plate spacer on. lean is almost gone now. and yes this is with the springs on the proper sides.

 

I am putting 5100's and sport springs on when my frame gets replaced. Funny thing is that right now my suspension is factory, shocks and off road springs, however, my passenger side sits lower then my drivers side. isn't it supposed to be the other way around?
