Thoughts on Toytec (Alu) vs Wheelers (Poly) Preload Spacers

[Berty_K]

I want to use a preload spacer to lift my front end a tad more. I'm looking at the following two options:

• Toytec Aluminum Preload Spacer: $150
• Wheeler's Poly Preload Spacer: $40

Toytec's Preload spacer replaces the bottom perch (picture below). I have the TRD Pro suspension so do not have the ability to adjust the height of the perch. This seems like a stock-ish solution.

Wheeler's Preload spacer sits between the coil spring and top plate spacer (picture below).

The toytec kit is about 3-4x the cost of the wheeler poly kit. Is the toytec kit actually a better option? Or are they functionally the same? Lots of road driving. No serious offroading.

No one's biting.

Does anyone have any long term experience with the wheeler spacers? I’m having trouble justifying the extra cost of the toytec option.
