Urgent Help Needed Toytec Springs on Tundra 5100's

[Yoter]

I am in process of installing Toytec springs on Tundra 5100's on the bottom perch and I am running into problems.
The spindle is hitting the spring! Same problem I had with the Tundra TRD coils that I was hoping the Toytec Springs would fix.
On the drivers side I have tried two different configurations one with the "toytec" writing facing out and the other with end of the spring facing outwards, both configurations contact the spindle!

Can Anyone with this setup please weigh in on this? [MENTION=60147]the great him[/MENTION]

I have the end of the bottom of the spring facing the driver and front passenger on each side. I don't think mine ever contacted with stock ucas

I don't have those springs but encountered that problem till I got a descent alignment.

Just in case anyone runs into this from what I discovered yesterday, because the Tundra strut is slightly taller then the Tacoma/4Runner equivalent the coil needs to be rotated 45 degrees clockwise to accommodate for this.
[MENTION=133963]GGFerrier[/MENTION] (thank you!) sent me some pictures of his struts (Toytec eibach springs on Tacoma 5100's) his coils were oriented in the stock location (drivers side and passengers side end of springs on the outside closest to the tire). After trying this and getting spindle contact I rotated each one 1/8th of a turn clockwise and it cured the interference.
So the final configuration was drivers side spring end closest to the drivers side corner of the vehicle and passengers side closest to the rear passenger corner of the vehicle.

sorry i didnt see this till now. i didnt have any issues with this that i can remeber, and now im running LR UCAs so i probably would not have been much help. but glad you are running the toytec 3" spring, how do you like it so far? i bet you can tell the difference already over the TRD Tundra coil,? anyhow yeah i spend most of my forum time over on ih8mud now and only really check this about once a month from a computer, most of the rest of the time its from my phone and that dosent always give me notifications...
