    those ome springs are no joke so i definitely wouldnt use a cheap compression tool to do it at home. he probably has the 5100s which require you to take assembly apart to adjust.

    OME kit with the 888's, Total Chaos UCA's. Those upper control arm bolts were a BITCH!

    I had some rubbing until I had the alignment done, seems to be good now. It is close though to the cab mount and the rear of the front fender flares. I'm running the trim packer on the lt front, no spacers. Depending on how the coils settle I may add spacers in the future.

    Very nice! Did you add the drop kits for the drive shaft carrier bearing or front differential?

    The carrier bearing drop came with the kit and took about three minutes to install, worth it IMO. I didn't do the diff drop in the front, as the CV angles look pretty good, even before the 888's settle.

    Is the carrier bearing drop just spacers and longer bolts? if so, how thick are the spacers?

    Bolts, spring locks, washers, and spacers. Didn't measure the spacer but I would guess around half an inch.

    So it could very easily be made with a 1/2" washer, longer bolts, new washers and new lock washers. I'm going 3" up front and 2.5" in the back so I think it would be a good idea for me.

    I would have to measure to give you the exact spacing. You could easily make it, the spacers are blocks, not washers though. It does look like you could also purchase it separately as well- http://toyteclifts.3dcartstores.com/Driveshaft-Carrier-Bearing-Drop-Kit-05-UP-Tacoma_p_168.html

    While we're on the subject of drops. What are you guys using for front swaybar drops? I'm not really a big fan of the aluminum spacers. Anyone make anything stronger?

    I didn't need to run a swaybar drop. With the kit I have and the TC UCA's, I have plenty of room.
