    I recently installed the toytec bilstein 5100 3 inch lift kit on my 2013 Tacoma. After installing the lift I noticed that the front is sitting about 2 inches lower then the rear. I know the rear will settle in , but that's a huge difference . The front looks slammed compared to the rear. Anyone else have this same issue? 20160923_132317.jpg

    I never took the measurements before, I didn't think it was something I'd have to look back into. I just took the measurements from the center hub to the fender and its pretty dark out, but I got about 24" in the rear and 22" in front

    22"s seems a little short for a 3" lift. I have a little more than that with 885's or 2-1/4"s on mine. Any part numbers printed on your coils?

    Bilstiens 5100 adj with Eibach, Dakar rear leaf pack with 5100's. Wet Oakles. SCS 17" with 275/70/17 Coopers.
    I had same problem. My fronts were adjustable though. I called Toytec and they had me move to next position. I must say I was and am disappointed with this lift from Toytec. Spent more $ than last spacer and add a leaf on my 06. Still not as high as old lift.

    I have the same problem with my toytec lift. Have you found any solutions to drop the back end 1.5”-2”?
