    No doubt, hopefully I'll get a new one soon. Maybe @3378jakesr5s bumper when he makes a new one

    The taco lean came back again since we installed the Coilovers. I just had to crank up my driver side another 2 full turns to make it go away. Good thing I haven't gotten that alignment yet!

    Yeah you can only control taco lean so much with the coilover. You have to get side specific rear springs that account for the lean. So far I know of Alcan making them.

    it shouldn't be too bad without the rear springs though right?

    Nah. You can get a little a with a full tank but it goes away as you use gas

    I'm still about 1/4 inch low on the driver side and that's with less than a quarter tank of gas. Maybe I should crank it up another full turn to compensate for the fuel

    You don't need a spacer if you have an adjustable Coilover. I can just tighten it more but I don't think 1/4 is a big deal. I'll have to measure again with a full tank

    Only problem I see is you will have the coilovers set completely different with preload and soon as you wheel you will notice. The spacer will fix yo lean and keep the same settings on each side for the front.

    Yeah I guess so, after taking a look again yesterday it looks like my rear leafs are pretty clapped out so after I get the new dakars put on hopefully that will help out a little bit and I won't need as much preload

    I'm in the same boat. The Tacoma rear springs are garbage. I'm pretty sure my taco actually leans the opposite way a normal one does (even with a full tank of gas) because my passenger side rear spring is completely done. I should probably crawl under there and make sure it's not actually cracked. Good thing the weather is supposed to be nice this week.

    Yeah, looking at how flat my factor rear leafs are I could probably get about 3 full inches from adding the new Dakar pack. Then I can crank up my coilovers to avoid the stink bug stance and I'll be ready to wheel :thumbsup:

    Might buy the dakars next Friday if @3378jakesr5 can still get me a deal and can do my shock tower relocate

    Careful cranking coilover to the max. Ride is rough and you put more stress on the CV axle with that much angle.

    I definitely wouldn't be going to the max. Just enough to level out the front end so it doesn't look as much like a stinkbug. If I end up having to crank it up too much I will just remove a leaf from the rears
