    There have been no reported issues with the shims they are so minimal. Literally thousands are running them. I do understand that spacer lifts give bad results if off-roading. With the other comments that I have read from you in this thread alone leads me to believe you don’t know much about suspension.

    Preload is a bigger affect on ride, a higher angle on the arms also affects ride quality

    You also lessen up travel with shims

    What have I said that is wrong? Lengthening the shock beyond where the bump stops are effective is a bad idea. Whether it’s a 3 inch inch spacer or a 1/4 inch spacer. It still opens your suspension up for damage that the bump stops were designed to prevent.

    Do parts not come with stickers anymore? What is this world coming to? I mean I gotta represent Toytec at my new height, right? The 6112’s are beautiful. Not complaining in any way. Hopefully install this week and post some pics.

    Your Bilsteins should have come with stickers. At least you can slap those on your freshly leveled ride :thumbsup:

    6112s at 1.9 installed. Friend of mine has shop with a lift so that made things so much easier. He basically let me use his shop and his son and I did the install. Rides so much better. Drivers side is 1/4 inch lower than passenger. Worth every penny!75F69316-727B-4C61-AD9A-2B410323A022.jpg

    Going for alignment Monday morning. So now I’m on the fence about upper control arms again. If I can wait a while on them I’d like to but don’t want any issues to come up.
