    Personally I would keep the lift around 2-2.5”, skip the UCA’s, and use that money for a full leaf pack in the rear. Bilstein shocks front and rear, OME coils, and either OME or Icon leaf pack should put you all in at $1,500 or less.

    and PM member @Tretiak30 and see what he can do for you on an Icon RXT leaf pack

    So if I go with this set up ^^^, no horrible issues, bearing failures, or having to reclock things, or whatever, extra BS? Thanks.

    Anybody with stock TRD Bilsteins know how much droop travel you got? Just curious what they have stock compared to what I have now. Should've measured

    Anyone has recommendations on a lift that would fit 33”, I looked at Icon BUT there is known carcinogen with the lift products and I’m a cancer survivor, I don’t want to be anywhere near a known carcinogen to prevent any type of recurrence

    I have bilstein 6112/5100 set up on my truck. I have 33s on. Front is currently higher right now, but I want to level out my truck. I dont do any hauling, but I do plan to put a RTT. Is an AAL enough to do the job or should I just do a new rear leaf pack? Also if you guys can give me some brands I should go with, that would help also.

    I tried AAL but wasn't enough for my taste. I currently have EMU Dakar Heavy duty with overload leaf. I think this would be overkill for most people. I would look into EMU DAKAR Medium duty leaf pack? Maybe remove the Overload leaf. Check w/ @HeadStrong Off-Road

    What notch are you set on the 6112 to clear 33s? I assume it's the 600lb coils that came with 6112.
    what's your measurement from middle of the hub to top fender?

    Hey, new taco owner.
    So far all I did was 1” front spacer which gave me 2” lift and got the 275 KO2 which gave me another inch of clearance, Wheels are fuel d674. Suspension is stock. Weekend off roading and camping anytime possible. 8865BB5E-2581-47C2-A5E4-39B6F4CADDA2.jpg

    How much was ride quality effected with the spacers. That's the exact temporary setup I have in mind unless I can get some 5100s for cheap and use stock springs on them and move the ring a few notches.

    Just a quick question for all Tacoma drivers. Is anyone using a 1in. Lift block in the rear to gain some rake while towing? I look to add the block for this reason as I’ll be towing a travel trailer with a 2500 dry weight. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I may have left out the vehicle information which a 2018 Taco SR5 four door 5ft bed.

    Very informative, thank you for sharing! I have the 3" Leveling kit from Roughcountry.com. I don't do heavy off roading, so I think I'll be ok
