    i know this is a very common set up. I just ordered this with the wheelers progressive 3 pack add a leaf. I don’t really want to run a spacer at all nor do I want new uca. I currently run 265/70/17 toyo mt and want to do just enough to clear these comfortably. Would you all just set it at 0 and no spacer. Will this make the truck level? I dont mind a slight rear rake. I just don’t want the Cali lean.

    Also to note. I have a demello flat top bumper that will be going on.

    Thanks!

    Just set them at 0 and call it a day. Either way you will need UCA’s. How much lift were your trying to achieve? The Demello bumper is going to lower the front lift by a bit due to weight, if you want the full 3” you should have gotten 886 coils

    I don’t want a lot just enough to clear 265 which I believe is the stock tire size. The demello bumper is only 100 lbs. from what I read about the 885 online and on their website that’s what’s recommended for dc or Tacoma with after market bumper.

    Also read that most people didn’t need new uca unless they went over 3 inches.

    It should also be noted the truck is already lifted it just has a spacer and 2 inch block

    - ICON UCAs, BP51/Kings, SCS wheels, 285s, Leer 100XR canopy. Greenlane aluminum winch bumper, Smittybilt X20 winch. Trying Falken AT3w now, Really like BF KO2s.
    Your 265 70 will fit no prob with stock wheels, if you have aftermarket wheels with different offsets then you could have a bit of rub.
    just make sure your caster is around 2 on your alignment.

    I got 2in of lift with this combo and a 1/4 spacer on the driver side. I did buy my springs second hand so they had already sagged. After the usoffroad bumper and winch I went down to about 1.5in lift. I had to do an 1/2 driver 1/4 passenger to get back to 2.5in lift. With brand new coils you should get more lift, but it will sag. So spacers if you want more than 1.5-2in of lift.

    Ya it stock wheels and I got a good off-road shop. With the way it is now they have it dialed in perfect. From what I’ve seen it should be the same lift just done properly and not the cheap way.
