I finally got around to getting some work done on this after a COVID-related funds delay. 2004 v8—I put on bilstein 5100s w/ ome 883 in front, bilstein 5100 w/ wheelers t12 in back and went up one tire size to the Wildpeaks. it looks a little bit high in the back but I'll see how it settles out. haven't done any measurements yet, but i wanted a mild lift and like it so far.

Looks great with the back up a little. It should keep the front geometry for the steering a little tighter, too, theoretically. Ever see a stock f150? Like 2" on wheel wells up front and 6" or 8" in the rear..

Nice do need the wheel spacers with the lift?

What did the 2019 suspension parts do? Whats the difference with the FJ rear springs stiffer? Just stupid newby questions.

I like how it looks!

What about your front 5100's? Which height setting did you choose?
Are the 883's high enough to keep the bilsteins at '0' notch?

i'll have to get a better picture. i kept the bilsteins at 0. the back has settled a little bit and it looks more level, but still has some rake. will get some more measurements after another week or so but right now it looks like about 2.5 for the front and a bit more than that in the back.

Thanks! Dobinsons IMS 3" front extended travel/rear long travel, SPC upper arms (absolutely huge for fitment). My rear lower links def bind so I'm gonna have to take care of that at some point.

No BL.

It's what's for dinner!

Interesting. I seem to be having a different experience unfortunately. I just installed the Toytec/Bilstein 3" lift on my 07 V6 and I am pretty disappointed in the Eibach springs. Everything else about the lift is awesome but the front is so bloody stiff it basically does not absorb bumps anymore and feels like I should have just stuck a couple of wooden blocks in there instead as it would basically do the same thing. Going over speed bumps in parking lots is brutal. Anything resembling washboard is a joke. On the highway it jars the steering wheel sideways if you hit any bumps which is sketchy. I got about 3.5 inches of lift in the front on the lowest setting and 2" in the rear with the superflex springs which makes it sit more level than I prefer. Do you have a top plate spacer on your coilovers? It seems as though Toytec preassembled mine with a top plate spacer. I'm wondering if that should not be there. Im wishing I had held out for some better quality front coils now but I wanted to do the aftermarket UCA's as well and couldnt afford both.
