    it will be a nice soft ride. I got the spc UCA I like them. but besure if you install it your self the spc sign is facing the tire when putting the uca together.

    but for me I got the 885 cause I wanted to get at least 2inch up front and max 2.5 but when I ordered I got the 886 thinking that it will settle and bring to 2.5 with my arb bumper, nope. it was up 3.5 so I had to swap, I like my stance now cause I do load heavy stuff on my truck hauling here and there so I like my rake

    It's called a trim packer. And yes it is still recommended. The coils don't cause the taco lean, the taco does.

    That is very weird, I have a prerunner with 885 coils and before it settled at all it was at 3" it looks to have settled some, but I have not taken a new measurement yet. I don't know how you got so much lift out of 885 coils. 3.5" is what the 887 coils should be producing.

    Not yet, sliders and skids are going on next weekend and I'm almost certain I'll need to swap to 886s. With just the bumper the 885s are okay, I'd probably go 887 and just get ucas if I did it again and just had the bumper. There is a slight rake with 885s and full Dakar rears
