    You're right, that's weird. I bought the toytec ultimate coilovers and in the details it says

    "700 lb/in (Silver) - Recommended for Double Cab V8's or with additional weight"

    If you want, you could also use OME coils and get the 2887. I have a whole spreadsheet with OME coils and the size, I can share it if you need it.

    My new to me 06 DC has spacers and they are really rough, so based on my experience I'd avoid spacers and get either longer or heavier coils, or go higher up on the eibach settings..

    Haven’t measured anything yet. But things look great. No rubbing and nice ride! Went to second clip on 5100s and used Wheelers 3/8” poly top plate. Will have some measurements and road report tomorrow.

    Looks so good!

    Did you do anything to the rear suspension or is it stock?

    Stock rear. Well, 5100 shock in the rear but no lift. I had nearly 3” of rake stock.

    Looks awesome brother , enjoy. I’ve got the exact same 05’ silver metallic DC. Can you take your final center hub to fender edge measurements front and rear when you get a minute ? I did Bilstein 6112s and SPCs bout 6 months ago but never really took great “before “ measurements so still curious about how much lift I’m at . ✌

    I’ll have to get a few minutes to get more exact (it’s tougher w deeper dished rims and wide tires) but a quick glance looks like 22” up front and 22 1/8” rear

    Hey, sorry to revive this thread, but I am running into the same problem with my leveling set up. When you added the spacers, did you also opt to get the longer studs or stayed with the stock ones? I have the 5100s with OME 885s on the bottom perch and got 1.5" at best.

    Also, how are you liking Toyo Open Country AT3s? I just snagged a set of SCS F5s and plan to stick the same exact tires you have on them as soon as they come in.

    I was able to retain the stock top hat studs and just get full thread engagement. All looks well after 4 months of use.

    I have really been liking the AT3s! There is a bit of humming over 40mph but not as bad as the worn K02s that they replaced. Great in the rain and so far fine in the snow. Have 7k miles on them so far and I'm very happy. Definitely get the C rated ones. No need for the weight of a E rating on our trucks.

    Hub to fender is right about 20 3/4 on both sides up front and 23 in the rear. Previous owner added blocks to the rear, which I don't mind, will hopefully level the truck when I eventually get a shell.

    Thanks. You should add that here since you have a unique setup

    You ever get a good hub-fender measurement or could you do an updated now that it’s been a bit brother? Still around /almost 22”?
