    @DCSBFTMFW Did you need a carrier bearing drop or axle shims?

    Nope, I don't believe so. I think all 6 lugs sit the same.

    True, but putting stock TRD suspension on his SR5 won't give him any lift.

    I have owned several different lifted toyotas. An several different brands of lifts. From cheap to high end. The OME kit im running on my 2015 4x4 sr5 is my favorite so far.

    Gotcha. If I end up not ordering them and needing them, are yours for sale? Or are you saving them for the future.

    Local TWer is installing my shims on his truck already, not sure if I'll end up messing with the CB drop though. So maybe!

    I don't have any vibes, so not sure it's worth tossing in if it might create some.

    Those are the tires I have, in that size. When you ran the 5100s @ .85, did you have any changes on the rear suspension? I'm thinking of starting out there, seeing how I like it. Nice thing about the 5100s is I can always add new coil springs & AAL down the road if not....

    Yeah, I had the 1.5" WO 3 leaf AAL on the rear in addition to my factory 3 leaf pack which gave me 2 inches of lift.

    Reason being, 5100s at .85 actually gave me 1.5" of lift and made me nose high. So I threw the AAL in to fix that. When I changed 5100s to 1.75 from .85, I only gained 1/4 inch making me dead nuts at 1.75 and made me pretty much level.

    I'm guessing that's why he went to the full OME setup...
