6112 Setting and Tire/Wheel Combo Thread.

Do you have driver side lean problem?

 

Yes. I don’t remember if it’s 1/4” or 1/2,” though. Either way, I couldn’t tell with the naked eye, and doesn’t bother me enough to add a 1/4” shim.

 

Love your setup. Do you have the driver side lean issue?

 

6112’s on 3rd (1.9) setting. 5100’s rear with coachbuilder +1 shackles. Icon rebounds w/ Cooper At3 Xlt 285/75/17’s.

 

Looks great, and great minds think alike! I went with the same 6112s at 1.9" and Icons and Coopers like you , except I went with the titanium wheels.

 

Yours was one of the setups i used as a reference. I missed the thread before I had the wheels install about ET lugs vs acorn. I bought the pro-comp ET lugs with the wheels back during cyber Monday and just had everything installed today. I don’t like how far they stick out so I searched here for other options and found the thread about the gorilla acorn lugs wheelers sells that you and others have switched to. I just ordered them. Have you had any issues with them?

 

Glad I was able to help! As for the Gorilla black acorn lug nuts, the only issue I had was that I needed a thin-walled socket to thread them on because of the narrow Icon lug holes. I’ve only had them for about a month, though, so I’ll see how they fare in the long run.

 

Check out Boss 4x4. Great guy.

 

I went with 6112 at top setting, 5160's in rear with 1" shackle and 315-70-17's on Icon Rebounds. Stock UCA's, rub at full lock. Will need cab mount chop...

 

What made you decide to go with the CB +1 shackles? I'm debating between them and the +2's. Going with the same set up 6112 @ 1.9" but think I want a little more rake. Your truck looks perfectly level to me with little to no rake. It could be the angle of the pictures though - do you have a side profile shot?

 

Hey all! New to this area of lift/level, but had a few questions. If I were to snag the 6112s and 5160s, along with some CB shims and shackles, would it be possible to fit 35s? I fully expect to get new UCAs as well, so that's not a problem. Would there be major cutting needed?

 

That would be dependent on your wheels and the backspace /offset

I went with cb+1’s on coachbuilders recommendation when I told them what setup I planned on going with. I wanted to keep a slight rake. I just got the suspension stuff done Monday and the wheels n tires yesterday, so nothing has settled yet. However, I do have about 1” difference front to back. Here are pics with the stock wheels after the lift.

 

What settings did you go with? In this picture it looks completely factory to me

 

3rd setting (1.9). The night I got home I measured and it was just over 2” higher than stock. Still needs to settle a bit. This was pic the day I bought it at stock height.

 

Ok In this you can tell

That's a nice looking truck. Did you have any rubbing at all?

 

Thanks

Alittle on the wheel well liner in front. I just pushed it forward and redrilled holes

 

Nice truck can you explain what you mean by shims on the driver and passenger side? I’ll be doing the 6112/5160 when they become available again just want to get everything I need
Thank you

 

Basically a round metal disc that sits on top of your strut. It gives an additional half inch of lift. I used the coach builder ones.

 

Some tundra has driver side lean from beginning so if you add shim on driver side, usually take care the lean. Mine was leaning so I added 1 shim on driver side

 

Thanks for the info fellas

 

For those running at 1.9 with no diff drop, do you have any issues with CV boot leakage/tearing?

 

I wouldn't worry about that. The TRD pro had 2" of lift in the front without any silly diff drop spacers, and it comes from Toyota that way. So in sure at 1.9 your safe. Heck probably even at 2.5 since it is only .5 more

 

Anybody else feel/think that 1.9 setting looks little nose high? Thinking about adding +1 shackle

 

Pro has 2” lift and has no drop. You’re not going to have any issues with 1.9”. I’m at 1.9 on 6112s and the axle angle barely moved from stock

 

1.9/1”

 

I've been driving on my 6112's since Sept of 2016 and still love them. I went with the middle setting and added 5100's in the rear.
