    Right now i have stock springs with 5100s adjusted to setting to sit leveled. I took my truck to get its first service and saw a new truck on the lot lifted with just a spacer which looked like it was a readylift 2in spacer and the truck is higher then mine. I loved the look and it didnt have much of a bro lean. How can i get mine like that without a spacer lift

    This should help you - https://www.headstrongoffroad.com/uploads/1/1/8/4/11846658/lift_guide.pdf

    Marie from Headstrong offroad "The rule of thumb on the uca ’s is the closer you get over the 2.5” lift mark toward 2.5”+ of lift the more necessary they become in order to get your truck back into alignment. So at 2” you are typically fine not running them, at 2.5” you are on the cusp of whether they are needed or not, and at 3” you pretty much need them. Of course there are exceptions to every rule".

    Thanks! Now since the 3rd gen tacomas come with 1 inch of lift. The specs on that chart are how much lift you will add on top of the factory 1 inch lift?

    mostly stock, grocery gettin' Prius
    Look at leaf packs instead. AAL are junk and a waste of time. The stock Toyota leaf springs belong in the garbage.

    Also, as advised in the HS chart, make sure you don't run OME coils in Billies at anything other than the lowest setting (0).

    I have mine set on the 4th perch with a one inch block in the rear, slight rake, allignment was no issue and I'm on stock springs, oh the ride is awesome, better than stock. I personally don't believe this crap where you cannot use the factory springs. I got over 2 1/2 in the front and no issues what so ever.
