    I put on 885s. Then I ended up putting spacers over them to get to 3". If I was doing it again, I would get 887s.

    887s set at 0 are supposed to get 2.75" on a second gen.

    That's an "average". Body style, 4x4/2x4, v6/I4, armor, tools, etc will all change the amount of lift from a given spring. My Access Cab is heavier than most DCLB Tacos out there. Unless comparing bone stock trucks to each other, each one will be a little different.

    The "supposed to" was for a truck with no extra weight and also was an average. Every truck will be a little different.

    I got about 2.75" lift with 887's and 5100's at 0, ride quality was better than stock to be sure, after a little beating on my truck and carrying a full set of underbody skids full of dirt they started to sag, I moved them up to notch 1.

    If they start sagging again I'm going to 886's as a quick fix. Ultimately I need true blue coil overs but that's got to be down the road some.
