Wheeler's T-12 & New T-13 Rear Lift Coils!

[808Keith]

Ordered!

Steven (Stephen?) at Wheeler's was great. Had a ready answer to all my questions and impressed me as a knowledgeable enthusiast.

T1, T13 springs, 5100s all around, trim packers driver side front and rear. Front coils and struts assembled. $802.00 with forum discount. You can't beat that with a ****ing stick!

Since I live 120 miles away I'm just dropping my truck off at Mike's Toys (affiliated with Wheeler's) for the install; save myself the annoyance of angrily hurling wrenches through my garage walls.

I only got recommended the driver front 10mm spacer and I have the same setup... no rear..

Yeah I specifically questioned this but he confirmed both. Since the rear isn't pre assembled I will double check with Mike @ Mikes Toys prior to the install.

That's also who I spoke with! Very knowledgeable guy, pleasure to speak with. Glad you finally pulled the trigger man, I had a shop do my install as well, I'm not ashamed one bit lol. Let us know how you like it and post up some pics afterwards!

Looking to trade T13 in like new condition for T12s. Need taller springs. I had a reverse rake after loading up for camping.

Yeah I kinda wish I would’ve gone with the T12’s. Maybe later I’ll switch out to those.

Reverse rake only with the load in the back, or reverse rake even after removing the load?

How severe?

Too bad we’re on opposite coasts!!! I need shorter rear springs.

It's an inch higher in the back with no load and a full tank. I think the extra inch or half inch that the T12 gives over the T13 would have been more ideal for me.

I'm willing to ship if you are.

Oh ok, that's good. Mine sags a little under camping load now but I figure that's a few days every couple of months... I'd rather have minor rear squat 2 days out of 60 than the ass end up in the air like a dog in heat 58 days out of 60!

Can’t be down for that long. Thanks though.

I was worried about the backend being too high, so went with the T13’s as well. Am looking at simply adding the OME 10mm trim packer on each ear spring for a touch more lift.

I ran this setup. Worked out really well and helped with keeping a good forward rake.

See here the first week installed....

That being said, here are T1s on 5100s set at the second notch and t13s with 1" cornfed rear spacer that adjusts for the driver side lean. Also loaded down with RTT and camping gear. Looks ok parked but could use a little more. I think I want to go with t12's with 10mm OMEs on both sides or maybe Toytec super flex coils and extended shocks with OME spacers.

** side note- I installed a Toytec Boss kit on a frineds '17 and front and rear was about 1.5" higher than my current setup. I feel like these springs have settled a good bit over 12,000 miles.

I would do this before swapping springs. You could even do two stacked on the driver rear and 1 on the passenger side if you have lean. Or get some air bags?

Yours looks good with the stock rims. What size tires are you running? Wheel spacers? Rubbing?

Thanks, 285/70r17 KO2s with BORA 1.75" wheel spacer. Did the fender liner mod and trim. It was perfect. At times I miss the simplicity of this look.

 

[perf0rmance]

Any black Friday specials for these springs?

Finally had a chance to get some photos up:

Bilstein 5100s all around, front at 0
Wheeler's T1 front with 1/4" spacer driver's side (approx 2.5")
Wheeler's T13 rear with 10mm OME trim packer driver's side (approx 1.5")
Factory UCAs (aligned perfectly)
Toyota TRD Pro wheels
Firestone Destination A/T 285/70 17 (33")

So, you set your 5100's at the .85" mark along with the T1 springs? Do you have UCAs as well? I have thought about moving my front 5100s to that notch to achieve a more level look, but can't decide if i should get UCA's at the same time?

I also just realized I haven't posted a pic in awhile showing the new setup [emoji16] (SCS Ray10)
