More lift than expected: RXT LEAF PACK (Gen 2 Tacoma TRD OR 4x4)

I installed the Icon Dynamics RXT leaf pack, option 3. It says with no weight, it will lift 2.65".

On my tacoma with a Highliner Snugtop Shell (~250lbs) and dual bikerack (50lb), the lift is 4" in the rear! I installed Billstein 5100s all around and used the stock TRD coils since i have stock bumper and no winch. front is a nice 2.5"

I went option 3 b/c i've ordered an OvrLnd camper plus all camping gear and bike rack.

My question: will this cause any issues with my driveline, etc. with a 4 inch rear lift?


Any input would be appreciated.

Thanks!

I didn't take a photo of the components. Tire size: 265/70/R16, will move to 276/75/R16

 

Give it some time to settle. Also, loosen all the leaf / shackle bolts (unless the leaf had free floating bushings) when at ride height (weight on the rear axle) and give the leaf/shackle a tap or three with a hammer. This will get any bonded rubber bushings settled to where they should be, then retighten.

 

Did you end up settling much after a few months?

 

Not that much, maybe 1/2 inch.. but I haven't put the OvrLnd camper on yet (but should only weigh a little more than SnugTop) and I'm thinking about adding a Rigd ultraswing with bike rack on that. so the Bilstein 5100/RXT set up should work great with gear loaded up. I would definitely recommend them.

It rides really nice on and off road currently.. I have had a lot of sets of Bilsteins on trucks and sportscars and they're a great value for the $$. There are better shocks/struts but more expensive and less warranty.. and I don't offroad too hard.. more by necessity to get somewhere.
