Superflex rears look higher than most on here. What do you think?

[zeronine]

What's up guys.First here is my setup.
Bilstein 5100's
LR UCA's
OME 885's
Toytec Superflex rears (not Heavy Duty ones)
285/70/17 Duratracs
17in Ultra Gauntlets

I know there's a lot of people with this same lift on here and most look level. But mine has a rake to it. My rear looks higher than normal? What do y'all think?

Also I trimmed/chopped more than most people say. Maybe my front is lower than most? I dunno... can't figure it out.

First pic is the main one. The other pics are just cause.

Looks normal to me from others I've seen... Nice looking Runner.

Yours looks like it sits the exact same as mine, except yours has bigger tires. I want to lift the front more but I've already torn a cv boot. I like those wheels and that grille!

I had the same setup and had a front fender height of 38.5 or so and a rear height of 40.5... I was gonna add a small spacer to the front to even it out.

I think it looks perfect. Hopefully my new Boss kit will look just like that.

I ran Superflex rears on my FJ, and it always had a forward rake due to the superflex springs being taller than most typical lift springs for the rear, it's not that bad though, more clearance in the rear is always nice

I like how you did your headlights!

You could get the top plate spacers for the OME's up front and level it out more if it bothers you

 

[zeronine]

Thanks guys. I feel a little better now. I have the 1/4 inch Top plate spacers but a little worried on how my CV angles will be afterward.

I see this quite a bit with many runners. I know it can be something to nit pick about. Either way, I think your ride looks bad ass.

looks like mine. Mines a little higher in the front, but the rear is equal tire gap. I hate the rake but theres absolutely nothing i can do to fix.

Just out of curiosity, did you measure before and after installing the 5100s/OME's? It looks to me like you could go a little higher up front (probably an inch) since you have the LR UCA's installed. Maybe spacers up front?

Hey, I want to have this exact height like Zeronine in his pictures, but i might want to put 1" higher in the front like you were saying... Do you happen to know how many inches he is currently from the ground to right below the middle of his fenders? I want to get a good lift kit and get rid of my XREAS, but i just need to know how high i need to go, and then decide which lift.

thanks!

I had the same issue as well, the superflex gave me some serious rake so I went with the spacers and they pretty much solved my problems. It still has a little forward rake, but a lot better looking.

thanks!

1) it’s more accurate to measure from the center of the hub to the bottom of the fender

2) if you have an 03-05 your measurements be off as he has an 06-09

3) the 5100s are adjustable and will be able to provide you with whatever ride height you’re looking for
