ome 884 or 885?

v6 access cab, manual tranny...no added weight up front...should i go 884 or 885? only reason i ask is b/c i've heard of the 884's sagging on tacos with time, where as the 885 and/or 886 hold their own? i also plan on putting a replacement alcan or deaver progressive leaf pack in the rear for roughly a 1-1/2" lift? im looking for 2 1/2 to 3, closer to 3" in the front.

 

i know chris would def have the answer...but do you think id get over 3" of lift b/c of the access cab?

 

Go with the 885's !!!!!!!! I wish i did.

 

I'd go with the 884 seeing as how you have the extended cab. My 884 barley sag, and this was before toytec was aware of the problem, as per chris it has been taking care of.

 

I'm gunna say that bigger is always better... then again thats gotten me in trouble before

 

thanks for the replies guys. do you recommend the diff drop if i go 2 1/2" or so w/the 884? also, i know aftermarket uca's will help, but are they necc?

 

I went 3" and to save trouble I purchased the diff drops and installed them. There are a few guys on here that don't have them and are pushing their trucks to the limits and aren't experiencing any troubles. They are cheap and easy to install you could always go without and if you start to experience any trouble get them. Here is a pic of mine not as high tech as you would think. Some people are just using washers to achieve the same affect.
Front diff

Hanger bearing

Rear shims under block

I don't have the UCA's and am experiencing no troubles.

 

thanks for the info!
