1. I ordered some springs 1 x 521600-P - Toytec Front 2.5" Lift Coil Springs.
A friend gave me his Dobinson GS59 574 struts that he was no longer using and I had heard good things aboutthe toytec springs. I had a shop put them together with new tophats from Ironman 4x4 America. I also installed ironman america's UCA's Now that they are installed, I'm 5" higher (19.25-24.5) in the front than I was before, and I'm wondering if combining the items like I did made for something significantly higher than what it would have done if I had just bough premade struts for a 2.5' lift. Trying to figure out the maths, lol. I know they will "settle" but this seems a bit extreme.

2. I also ordered, by mistake I believe, RCCXD-P - Toytec Rear XD Extra Duty Superflex Coils (Pair) and a set of stainless steel brake line extensions. I have NO extra weight on my rig currently. I thought I ordered the hd not the XD and could put the springs in, and then drive it down to the shop I have do the work I don't want to do and have them put the brake lines in and align it and such. I couldn't even get close to putting the springs in, as the brake lines wouldn't stretch far enough for me to put them in.

I don't mind running these if it's not going to damage things, but I've heard that I can only lift so far with KDSS and not prepared to rip that out yet. at this point it looks like i'm going to be a good 5" higher. I'm ok doing drop brackets that are made for the kdss to align the angles better and I've already done a diff drop with dobinson's kit.

am I crazy? I plan on using the full flex of whatever setup I have, and this is definitely not a mall crawler, but I don't want something that will break expensive other systems or damage my pan hard/trailing arms/links whatever.




Sorry to hear about your situation. Could you clarify how you are measuring the lift height you are at? The standard would be to measure before and after hub center to bottom of fender. 20" in the front is approximately stock.
I do think the XD springs will be harsh in the rear and maybe provide more lift than you want. However, since they are an easy install you could give them a shot and see how you like them
