Daystar spacer for OME coils?

After the lift my runner is leaning about an inch on the drivers side. I heard a common fix is the Daystar spacer (1.5") on the rear drivers side. Since I have OME 885 coils do I buy the same part number spacers as if i were using stock coils? or do I need another size?

[MENTION=110622]tucktuck8[/MENTION], any rear Daystar 1.5" spacer for the 4th gen Runner will do fine as the diameter of aftermarket coils is identical to the diameter of OEM coils. You can purchase a pair of rear spacers from Toytec:

Rear 1.5" lift Black Spacers Poly for FJ/4Runner

or just ask 4th gen forum members if anyone has a spare spacer laying around. Many, MANY members here, upgraded from a spacer kit to full suspension and thus have spare parts. That's what I did and another member sent me one for $20.00 shipped. Good luck!

Toyota designed the 4runner springs to carry more weight on the drives side, the fuel tank, battery, and drivers weight is all added in factory springs.

For example if you look at new spring or even used ones. You'll notice a colour code on them. The driver side springs are stiffer than the passenger due to the extra weight.

What I've been told is to add a 1/2" or 1/4" spacer on the driver side springs. I know that I'll have to get small lifts for my Toyotec 3" lift so it doesn't lean to the drivers.
Hope this helps.
