Rear coil spacer for driver lean
Im looking at either the 10mm OME or 15mm Dobinsons but wanting peoples perspective and opinions. I was gonna go with the 15mm spacer to accommodate my 5/8-3/4" lean depending how much fuel I have, since Dobinsons state "This will add the same amount of lift as its thickness to help level up the vehicle". Then I've read that spacers will DOUBLE the amount of lift based on the thickness, for example a OME 10mm spacer will lift it to 20mm.

I tried using a 10mm and a 15mm, but neither took care of it. I fixed it with a 1" Cornfed on the driver's side rear.

Same as the others the OME spacer isn’t nearly enough to counteract the lean

I had to go 1” rear spacer to combat the 3/4 lean my SR-5 3rd row had after lift, and a .330” Cornfed top hat spacer for the front DS strut.

I have a dumb question, I have never noticed this on my truck, I have a stock 19 trd pro. Does this happen when doing a lift?

Mine had a .5" lean from the factory. It was then a 3/4" after the lift.

Mine was the same, subtly noticeable from dealership then bringing it back down after installing the lift it was very noticeable at 3/4” lean with 3/4 full tank.

Lift Lean
Most people here I'm sure have moved on, but for posterity: Yes. Toyota actually uses side-specific springs. The Driverside springs might be a hair stiffer or a hair longer or have an extra coil wrap, but Toyota compensates from the factory in some way. Aftermarket springs installed for a lift usually are L/R interchangeable and don't differentiate, causing the vehicle to lean to one side. From what I've read, typical leans range from 1/2" to 1" with most being in the 1/2" to 3/4" range after lifting.

waste of time trying to fix the lean. You will get a lean depending on how much gas you have in the tank, if the road or parking lot is not leveled, if you overate at applebees....
only person probably noticing it is yourself, but if ya'll want to lose sleep over something nobody else will notice or care about....by all means do.
