3 & 1 lift vs 3" Level

That sounds good, how is the ride! My 2016 TRD off road is a 2wd is yours!

How did the KO2's look on your stock rims and do you have pictures!

Thanks

 

Nope mine is a 4WD, and I honestly can't tell any difference in the ride versus when it was stock. I don't have pictures, but it's nice out so might take some today. I had the KO2's on before my slight lift, and even then they completely changed the look of the truck.

 

Thanks bro!

 

Here's the KO2's after my TRD Beadlocks were installed this weekend.

 

I decided against the spacers and am going with 5100's all around, 885 coils and deaver 1-2" aal rear

 

What are your front 5100's set at and do you have front coils added from stock ones and is rear stock!

 

Please if you're going to lift save your money and do it right ! I did the spacer and I quickly upgraded. Get a decent coilover and an aal and you won't regret it I promise you!!!!

 

I am going to order from headstrong

5100's on all 4, either toytec or OME 885 coils and 1-2" AAL from deaver.

Maybe bring it up at level 2 1/2" with a hair rake in rear! Just trying to figure this 5100 adjustment thing, I keep hearing 0, .85. 1.75?

A good person here suggested leave at 0 setting and let the 885 do the lift, that sound better!

 

Yes! Much better! And adjust as needed. You will love the ride much better and enjoy it much more off-road

 

what is a better coil for multipurpose with daily street driving

885 885 887 ? and is the 0 setting the same as .85, just trying to learn

 

My 5100s are set at the 1.75" setting, but I have stock coils. I wish I would have got the OME 885 coils, but then I would have needed new UCAs which I didn't have the money for at the time.

If you get 885 coils, your 5100s should be set at the 0" setting.

 

Cool so If I set at 0" with the 885's, I don't need new UCA's, just let the 885 do the work!

 

884s would get you ~2" on your DC so you wouldn't need the UCAs

 

Cool, so 884 with bills at 0"

 

Just a heads up if you are planning on returning your lease to Toyota see if Carmax or a dealer will but it first, a lot of times you'll get several thousand in equity back in a check on a Tacoma lease, where if you lease return you would lose that. I saw one guy with a 4x4 access cab have $4800 in equity at the end of his lease on a trade in. Its worth checking out $$$$ (Sry OP off topic) but good to know for taco leasing people

 

No no no.... Don't go 884. They are just same hight as 2nd gen stock coils. 885 or 887 at 0
885 = 1.5- 1.75 lift 3rd gen

887 = 2" -2.25" lift. 3rd gen

Stock ucas should do it, you need to wait at least 5 weeks for suspention to settle to get this measurement. First few days it will be 1" .5" higher. So suggest get alignment right after lift then in 2 month go back and do small correction.
For the rear 1.5-2" deaver AAL if perfect

Great thanks for the info!

 

My bad, forgot 3rd gens already sit an inch taller.

Yet I'm still confused by your math.

On 2nd gens
884= ~2" lift
885= ~2.5" lift
887= ~3" lift

So shouldn't 884s be ~ 1" lift on 3nd gens, not stock height?

883= ~1" lift on 2nd gens should be 3rd gen stock height

 

You are correct 884 is 1" on 3rd gen. 883 is same as stock 2nd 375mm

 

Anyone have a photo of their 3rd gen with 5100 up front leveled with 275/70/17? Or any increased tire size for that matter?
