    So I measured hub to fender on the front DS and PS of my brand new 2021 Platinum today and both measured ~21.75".

    I've read about Tundra DS lean. Some say it exists, other say not. I've read Toyota has accounted for it with a slightly longer coil on the DS. Some say they had no lean, switched to aftermarket shocks and coils like 6112s, and then had lean.

    I plan on swapping to 6112s soon and am trying to figure out my shim combo. Lifted height goal~ 2.5". I plan on running the shocks @ 1.9" with a .5" shim on each side. I have an extra .25" and .5" shim to add to the drivers side if needed.

    Has anyone had no lean before and then a lean after 6112 install? If so, how much lean? I'm leaning towards installing the extra .25" shim on the DS. I would love to try to nail this combo the first time so any help is appreciated.

    stock they are level side to side, Toyota set up the suspension to account for the lean and extra weight on the driver side.

    When installing aftermarket suspension, just add one .25 shim on driver side. Or you can add two on driver side, one on passenger.
