How do lift increments work?

I am trying to acheve a 3" lift in the front. I already have 2.8" in the rear. My question is, how do the different components add up? I have the Toytec coils and Billies will be set at 1.75 and a 3/8 spacer on the driver to correct the lean and a 1/4 spacer on passanger. Do they all add up, because if they do, I will be close to 3.6" and I don't want the "bro" rake. A guy at Wheelers said that the billies plus springs plus the 3/8 spacer would be ok. 1.75+1.6+.375= 3.72?. Do they not add up like this? Thanks.

 

you are going to need new upper control arms for that much lift in the front.

 

Yeah, i bought some LR UCA from the groupbuy. Thanks.

 

Overly complicated. Just install shit and see what you end up with. It'll look good regardless

 

being a double cab guy. that will reduce your lift some compared to a single cab or access cab. the 1/4 spacer gives you close to half inch of lift alone. not sure about the 3/8 spacer (maybe 3/4"). Before my current lift, I did the eibachs, and bilstein 5100's @ .85 for 2.45" of lift. to get the full 3" do 1/4 spacer on passanger and 3/8 spacer on the driver to fix bro lean. problem solved

 

I might just have to see what works and start over if I don't like it. Oh well.

Because I don't want 3.5" of lift in the front.
