What size spacer did you put in the rear? I spoke to metaltech the other day and i'm now even more sure i want to run this set up with the 2.5 remote res in the rear! How do you feel about your front coilovers and ride hight? I noticed the extended remote res fronts are only adjustable to 3" while the reg extended coilovers are adjustable up 3.5" I was just curious if there was ever a time when you wish you had that extra 0.5" especially running the front bumper with extra added weight?

I ordered the extended travel with 700# coils like overland warehouse had specked and I have about 3 1/4 lift with them set at 2.5" from the factory no need to go higher
I put a day star 1 1/2" spacer in the rear for a total of 4.5" lift but I measured it and it came out just about 25.5" which according to Toytec that is a 3" lift in the rear

One more thing I would try the rear lift without the upper control arms first and see how it does I think the stock ones have more flex

That sounds perfect man! I don't think i would need to go with the 700# coils right now as i don't have a front bumper and wonder if it would ride to stiff? MT also recommended that i just go ahead and run the HD springs in the rear because i told them i wan6ed to gain 3" in the rear and planned on doing a spacer on the driver side to correct the lean.

The cool thing about the icon coil over lift is you can just adjust the coil instead of a spacer to correct the lean
 
Finally got my new tires
