Two Tundra Coil Spring Questions
Over the last year or so, my 2.5" Daystars with stock coils have been sagging badly. So, it's time they go soon. After doing a ton of research, I've finally decided on Tundra coils with a top out spacer as the route for my next front lift. I had been considering OME 882's and 3" spacers, but found too many negatives on those.
I have two hopefully simple questions. Since I only have ~10K on my new Rancho shocks, I really don't want to replace them yet. Will these "stock" shocks work with the Tundra coils?
Also, for those with large fender flares, what are your measurements from the ground and axle to the flare with the Tundras? Thanks for your help!

Well, les put it this way. The Tokico Trekmaster is just an upgraded version of a stock shock...same length, better quality. Steve at Sonoran Steel sold them with his kits and alot of people are running Trek's with the Tundra's, including me. It should be fine. From ground to fender im at 36.5" but that is with the 265/75/16 tires.

The ranchos should work fine. The Tokicos I'm running are stock. I have the Tundra/890 and I'm making a few HDPE spacers for the rear that are 1/2". It sits perfectly level, but I prefer just a tiny bit if rake. I think an inch is too much. I like the clearence in the front so I dont want to remove the spacers up there. Why is it you'd rather go with another large spacer, rather than the tundra route? Or is it just because of the shocks that you thought you'd have to replace?

Anyone else have measurements?
