Just got my toytec lift installed have couple ?????

So in a "correct" install, the UCA would slot in the space between two coils at full droop?

 

so if i lower it to .85 will that fix the problem

 

Drop her down you'll be good to go.

It should clear the entire coil , no ?

 

As far as the suspension is concerned, 5100 cranked too high is basically the same as full-droop, right? I don't think the OD of the coil increases that much when compressed.

 

I wasn't suggesting the coils were fatter , but that as the UCA comes down at that steep of an angle it starts to reduce the available space for the coil

I could be off base with that

 

No ur right, that coil is way too compressed, reducing travel and making the uca hit the spring. I wouldn't drive another foot with the CV's like that....

 

To jordando89:

1. Set the 5100s to .85.
2. Then, while the truck is on the lift (suspension in full droop), check the UCA no longer hits the coil. If it still hits the coil, you may have wrong springs installed.

 

Other than Eibachs you mean ?

 

Its kinda hard to tell from the pics, but do you have 3 slots showing on those shocks? If so, you are set @ 2.25.
The angle of that UCA is WAY to steep, and your CV's wont last long at that angle. I would head back to the shop ASAP.

 

no there is 2 i can feel with my fingers

 

I mean there's a possibility jordando89 may have been shipped wrong Eibachs.

 

I would definitely drop that down asap. Your CV's and UCA's are at bad angles.

 

is there any way i can tell if there wrong

 

If there's a PN printed on the coil, then compare it against the PN on Toytec's web site. If there's no PN, then it will be easier for you to check for fouling at .85 first (it's relatively easy to adjust the snap ring position).

 

is there anyway i can do it with out taking it all off? i tried the first time don't have all the tools so i just took it to toyota.

 

Like for a first gen ?

 

1st and 2nd gen Eibachs are actually the same PN 892-620 (or 112-620). Anyway, I think the possibility is low for getting the incorrect springs.

Since the dealer installed the spring and shocks, let them set the height to .85 and see what happens. Whether this can be done in-situ without removing the shock assy from the truck, depends on what kind of spring compressor the dealer uses.

 

Get that lowered.. you CV boot's are going to rip soon at that angle also do you have a diff drop on? I'd order one and have them put it on when your geting the billy's lowered

 

Popular sentiment is that a diff drop is ineffective on the second gens
