    About 2 years ago I put a 3" Toytec ULK on my truck and have since put about 30k miles on it and now it just doesnt seem to sit as high as it used to. I know the suspension settles over time but to me it looks to be sitting significantly lower then other 2nd gens I see who also have 3" lifts. Maybe my tastes have just changed and now I'm wanting it to sit higher. So my question is, is it possible to run a spacer lift in conjunction with the 3" ULK, or am I going to have to upgrade to a 6" lift?

    coils have definite lifespans, you could just switch out the coils instead of going to a 6" lift

    Man you'd think the Toytec coilovers would last longer then 30k miles tho.

    what # coils are you running and how much preload did you have on them?

    Did you measure after install for a comparison? I just installed the system on my truck a few weeks ago. I've also noticed in that short of timeframe that I have gotten used to it being higher. Mine settled to a height from hub center to fender at 24.25". I just adjusted the fronts down 1/2" to match the rear height of 23 2/4" all around.
