What was included in the kit? I read low profile nuts and then a different user stated longer studs?

Low profile 14mm nuts, 3 a side.
I simply removed the wheel, removed the ABS line bolt and the brake line bolt on spindle, removed the 3 14mm nuts, removed the 19mm nut and bolt at bottom of strut, and then removed the 2 19mm bolts under brakes at the lower ball joint. Then wedged a pry bar in to push down and pop the strut down enough to slide the spacer on. Then put it all back together with the low profile nuts up top.

Here are before and after pics - not quite apples-to-apples since it's a different location and angle. There is stil some rake, but it's reduced. Somehow, the driving position just feels better now.
Also, I obviously removed the OEM running boards so now I actually have some ground clearance.

Yep. 6 nuts, 2 spacers, instruction sheet, and a sticker.
Here's a shot of the spacer installed using the low profile nuts. Looks like any thicker and the nuts wouldn't fully thread onto the OEM studs.

Got the cornfed 1” spacer installed to the front. Subtle but noticeable. Thank you guys for the info and David from Cornfed was fast with everything from replying to shipping!

Thanks man. Everyone here, Honolulu, has black and I haven’t seen these on the road yet. The silver T4R thread made me want these actually.

Wow, that looks great. Are those 265's? I have been debating the same 1" front opposed to a 2/1. I think the 275's fit the bigger lift better, but with the weight and E load ride penalty. I am thinking you get the same effect with 1" and 265's. If you could get a few more photos from different angles it would be greatly appreciated.

Yup 265s. Like the OP the 4R is a DD and occasionally will do light trails only. My pups was getting sick in my truck so I had to keep the 4R ride as close to stock with it being more plush.

I’m thinking of adding these on top of my 5100s because i had them installed and yesterday with OME springs front and bag and I still have a rake. There is about a 3 inch fender gap between the front and the rear. Do you think this 1inch corn fed spacer will level out my truck?

After reading through this thread multiple times, I decided to give the 1” lift from cornfed suspension a try and I’m very glad I did. The lift is quite subtle, but to me makes a big difference in the appearance. We also mounted Stealth Custom Ray 10’s at the same time. Tires are 265/70/17 KO2’s.
