    I've been waiting for a while now for Toytec to get the eibachs back in stock. Now that they have them I'm thinking about running the ome 884's. 2" of lift is starting to sound nice but I'm worried about alignment issues compared to the 1.7" of lift with the eibachs.

    In short, what should I do? Btw I already have the 5100's and I will be installing the wheeler progressive 3 leaf pack.

    Things and stuff and such
    You should be fine with 2" of lift on stock UCA's. 2.5" and higher is where you will have more trouble. Find a good alignment shop.

    Do I need 1/4" spacer on the 884's for the taco lean?

    Hey just curious, did you order the eibachs?

    I ordered mine the first day they showed no longer on backorder but I got a call this morning saying they are backordered again. Probably just until next week though, well they say.

    In the end, I went with the 884's. I wanted to keep the 5100's @ 0. I wanted a little bit more lift than the eibachs were gonna give, but keep it under 2.5".
