    I have this setup. I am still on stock UCA's. My alignment is considered within spec, but I would love to decrease my positive camber closer to 0 in order to avoid uneven tire wear. I may throw some Light Racing UCA's on this summer.

    The setup drives excellent. No wanding sensation while driving.

    For the guys with this setup, are you close to level or does it revert to factory-type rake? And if there is rake, is it ok to set the Bilstein's to 1.75'' with the Eibach's to level or is that loading the shock too high?

    Finally, is it necessary to get a 1/4'' spacer to eliminate Taco lean?

    Thanks a bunch for any help fellas,

    Matt

    .85 is the max setting you can run the billies at with Eibach coils

    Yes on the spacer as the coils are the same length as each other and not side specific

    So you're saying that there is a rake when you use this setup?

    Thanks, Matt

    There may be rake depending on how much you lift the rear

    Eibach / 5100's @ .85 will get you approx 2 1/2" up front , lift the rear according to how much rake you want

    I have a little rake on my setup. About and inch but you cant really tell by looking at it. My suggestion is go for the full 3 inch lift cause you will want to max out the height. Im glad I did. Also get some light racing UCA's. Dont risk the alignment not coming in like it should and you wearing down tires way faster than it should. I ordered my LR UCA's from Fat Bob's garage and they were direct shipped from SPC. They are the newer ones with the spec ride bushings in them. win win. Install took my friend and I about 6 hours total.

    Well, I already have Bilstein 5100's all around with the TSB AAL. With that in mind, if I drop my Bilstein's to 0.85'', put Eibach springs (with 1/4'' driver's spacer) and LR UCA's in front, with a Toytec 1.5'' AAL in the rear, is that at least close to level?

    Thanks a lot for the help guys, I appreciate it.

    Yes , close to level , you will get 2 1/2" lift front and 1 1/2" lift rear with that set up

    I look level with this setup. My rake is in fact very close to 1 inch.

    It looks very good IMO. A very small rake prevents the squat(nose up) look.

    it is stiffer for sure. The front end doesn't compress as much with braking. I prefer it
