2nd gen access cab and ome 883 coils

What's up Tacoma World! I just took off the front 3 inch strut spacers and 1 inch lift block that came on my truck and installed bilstien 5100s at 0 all around with ome 883 coils. Stock height in the back. Headstrong offroad hooked it up and even put the struts together for me with the new mounts! Cant say how much lift I got from the 883s since I never had it stock but I guess somewhere around 1in-1.25in. I got an alignment and truck drives better than any vehicle I have ever had. Even with the worn out choppy bfg tires it's awesome! I plan on buying a new set of the same tires. Here is a pic of the truck with the American racing wheels. I need to get out and get better pics soon! It's a 275/70/17. The 883s are what I expected but sometimes I think I should have went with the 884s but it's all good! I tossed the old lift in the trash but still have some OEM Toyota in tact struts and rear shocks if anybody needs them. They still have plenty off gas In them.

 

Looks good! About to go with a similar setup as well from Headstrong.

Curious, on all 4 ends what distance are you getting from hub center to fender flare. You look to be almost level front to rear, but maybe with a little bit of rake (front lower than rear). I think you did right by not going with 884s, as it seems those would've put you bro lean front end high.

P.S. Welcome to TW!

 

Welcome! Nice truck.

 

on flat ground it looks level for the most part. sometimes parked in certain places it looks a tad lower in the front. Definitely dont want the "bro lean!" lol also i forgot to mention I used the provided 1/4in spacer from headstrong. Definitely necessary. I wll measure as soon as can for center hub to fender.

 

883s don't seem to be as common around here as opposed to the other OMEs, so this particular thread from a few weeks back stuck in my head. Thought it might be of some interest to you, unless you already saw it.

 

I only found 1 or 2 threads with pics of 883s on an access cab. That being said, Im glad i could share this info. Function over form!

 

Measured center hub to fender flare.

The front was exactly the same left and right somewhere between 21.25in-21.5in.

The back was about 22.25in left and right.
