Looks great. I still love my set up. I think it's a perfect height too.

I have been dragging my feet on this.... (I’ve had the 6112 coils for months) To those that have done this with the 6112 coil on the front how has this impact overall handling? How about off road ride quality? What coils have you used in the rear? Looks like dobinsons 599 and wheelers t13 seem to be the favorite. Looking to have a level rake if at all possible.

Nice, got pics?
Whoops thats not the pic I wanted to share. Different tires but same lift. Here is how she sits currently. Last pic was on 255/80r17’s

Looking good, which Bilstein coils did you go with?

I went with 650# King as a middle ground. I rode on a 700# on a Tacoma with a nice Shrockworks bumper and winch and thought it was too stiff or my liking as a DD. I was always curious what were the true measurements numbers of these springs on 7 5 or 6 4 perch. Seem like with all 6112 Bilsteins suggested settings it still causes a higher P side, I'm not sure if that is the case for kdss models. Mine is higher by .25", it doesn't really bother me as much but I do have an agm battery maybe that's why.

Great thread, this really helped out me out.
Bilstein B12 springs. Look up Bilstein 36281824 on amazon. Drives great and pairs perfectly with the 6112 setup or TRD/6112 setup.

Building off this thread, has anyone on here swapped the front springs with a slightly stiffer 14in spring on the TRD pro? I'm adding a Slimline Bumper and Winch and I'm trying to decide between 14"x600lb (like the 6112 springs) or going up to the 14"x650lb.
I'm wondering the same thing. Will the King 14" x 650lb spring work with the stock TRD Pro suspension? I have a C4 low pro bumper and hoping to add a winch later on.
KING 14" COIL SPRING PAIRS FOR 2.5" COILOVERS
Additionally, what's the best spring for the rear? I've seen people suggesting T13's or the Dobinson 599's for about 1.5" of lift. I have a full length Gobi rack (~75lbs) and carry a bike rack on the hitch receiver most of the time (~100lbs). I'm hoping to maintain the factory rake if possible.
So after reading all this am I understanding correctly that none of this will work on a 19 4R TRD PRO with the OEM Fox shocks? I know they are still early in the game and I would love to do something like this with keeping the OEM Fox shocks and getting a mild lift from swapping out the coils front and rear.. Thanks in advance...
Added new tires too.

So just to confirm, you ran the new 14" front spring on TRD stock shocks, and did nothing to the rear? Just wanting to confirm if you put a longer rear shock in too. Thanks! Looks great
He used longer coils in the rear, shocks stayed the same.

Looks good!
So I FINALLY pulled the trigger on this after having the 6112’s for over a year. I went with Icon 52700’s in the rear which give about 1.75” of actual lift. My measurements were rushed but it looks like I got 2.5” to the fender in the front and 2.25” to the fender in the rear when combined with 285’s. It’s been about a week and I love it. Far less nose dive and lean when cornering and it just looks better. My co-worker, who is an Tacoma overlander, said it now looks like someone told it to “grow a pair” and it did... in the pic, top is after and bottoms is stock.

Looks great. Have you gotten an alignment yet? Just curious if you'll require UCAs for caster. Any rubbing? I have 14" 650lb springs and T13s waiting to be installed on my '18 Pro.

Funny you mention the coils being red, since I got my 6112 coils for nothing way back when, I had them powdercoated in red HAHAHAHA
