    If those 885s are new you can probably sell them for a good price and put the money towards 886s. If you're going to get a winch too I definitely upgrade now. But swapping coils out is pretty quick and easy so you could put the 885s in ft or now and see if they work for you.

    everything i have is brand new in the box. never installed.
    i mean i legit don’t need a winch for what i do with the truck but the bumper is designed for it any may look funny with out one

    so would the 886’s be fine with the 5100’s? i heard they are ideal to set up with the OME 90000‘s

    Yes they'll be fine. Many folks prefer OME springs paired with 5100s over the nitrochargers.

    Rather than start another thread I’ll ask here. I have 5100’s with 884 springs and the 1/4” spacer for the Tacoma lean which has been a great setup for the access cab.
    I’ve got the itch now to add one of those hybrid/slimline bumpers and winch. I know with the added weight I’ll have some sagging.
    Could I pull the 1/4” spaced out and put it on the passenger side and get a 1/2” one for the drivers side and call it good. That would give a 1/2” and 1” more lift respectively. The springs are less than a year old and don’t know if there is much of a resale market for 884’s. Not many access cabs anymore.

    your 884’s have the same spring rate as my 885’s and i was told my headstrong offroad that i would need the 886 to accommodate the weight of a bumper or any additional weight
    so i would assume you would be in the same boat i am currently in.

    my suspension is all brand new as it hasn’t been installed yet. but ever since i saw this c4 fab hybrid on new years that gets released tomorrow i have been wanting it pretty badly.

    if i do decide to get it i would need to just buy 886 coils and swap them and than find a buyer for the 885’s

    Hi Tyler, My BFG 285/70/17's KO2's work great in the rain, snow and desert rock and sand.
    I have plenty of traction and feel safe. I trust these tires to get me there and back and have never been let down.
    They are not cheap but are worth every penny!

    Recently installed 5100's front and back w/ 885 coils. Anyone else have issues with their steering wheel vibrating at speeds of 40+ mph after install?

    I did 5100's w/ 885 in front and AAL in back w/ stock shocks and the ride is better.

    Used Super Bumps in front and think they made things run very smooth.

    Whats the variance on your driveline angles pre and post lift? Is it still in spec?

    Cant decide on 885s or 884s. I just want to level. I don't wanna touch the rear leafs as of yet... I'm thinking if I do 885s the rear will sag a bit.

    Anyone have any input?

    I'm not sure, I'll have to go and check. I did some quick research, and it seems like i'd want to be within 3 degrees right?

    Did you do the spacer automatically starting off? Or did you realize you need it after then added it.

    Folks with 885s, 5100s and Dakar leaf packs: are carrier bearing and/or diff drops necessary?

    Diff drops suck so no. CB drop is determined after the lift when you can check the driveline angle to see if it's in spec.
