Bilstein setting with 1.5 spacer and FJ coils Help!

[scd969]

I've been pouring through these threads but can't quite find a straight answer with pics. I've got FJs and Bilsteins all around with the front set to .85. I want to go higher and got the Daystar 1.5 spacer.

Should I set the front to 1.75 or 2.5?? I about the same rake as I have now. Any insight on this would be extremely helpful.

[MENTION=121303]scd969[/MENTION] Here are a couple of pics from when I first got mine and the day I lifted it with Bill's set max, 1.5 spacer in rear and FJ's all around.

Thanks- much appreciated.

Do you think it makes a difference with lift height for 2wd vs 4wd up front?

Here's mine set to Max at the front. Rest of details in sig. I'm pleased with how it turned out.

The V8's are obviously heavier and if it is 4x4 then there will be added weight as well, enough to make a noticeably visible difference in appearance, doubtful. Others can chime in on this as mine is a V6 4x2, check here for more info: http://www.toyota-4runner.org/4th-gen-t4rs/78803-compiled-fj-springs-lift-info-4th-gen.html

Lookin' real good, DTA1984. I'm thinking of FJ coils with the Bilstein 5100s and the Daystar 1.5" rear spacer for my 06 Sport V6 4x4. Have you discovered any drivetrain issues (i.e., CV axles or diff drops) with this set up?

Thanks

Thanks! Sorry for the late response.

My cv axles are good, no leaks or tears. I have had a slight driveline vibration between 20-30 MPH. I have narrowed it down to most likely being the increased angle of the CVS. I am going to do a diff drop once it warms up a little.

Happy to see this thread, exact setup I'm piecing together right now
