    22 Pro, I did the Westcott lift.
    I've got the smallest amount of rear sag (1/8") when empty, and I carry things in the bed regularly which just adds to it.
    Thinking to replace my stock springs w/ spacer with some Dobinsons springs.
    There's two different options listed;

    C56-167 - Said to match a truck with "2.5in lift"
    C56-169 - 2.0in lift

    I'm a little confused by this. The Westcott lift is a 3/1, 2.5/1 for Pros.
    So lets call the Westcott a 3" lift. Am I still going to sag, even with the 169's?

    Has anybody done Dobinson coils? Which option did you go with and what kind of lift did you get?
    I'd like just a little bit of rake.

    You have the 1” spacer in the rear and you sage 1/8”? Change the rear spring out for a 2” lift spring should do it, look through the mega lift thread.

    I went with the Dobinson C59-223V coils which they say suit a 2 inch lift. I've got a 2.5" lift in the front but from what I can tell there is still a slight rake. I also like these because they're variable rate springs so not as stiff if you don't have any added weight in the bed.

    I saw those but I couldn’t find lift info for them. Being progressive would be a huge plus, but I don’t know that they’ll be tall enough. My truck is definitely sitting taller than yours in the front.

    Yea. Westcott doesn’t understand it either… they said it would be due to my alignment but it’s aligned exactly within spec to Westcotts recommendation…

    That truck definitely sits lower in the front than mine, unless those are 37’s. The Westcott rides like shit anyways, I need to just do kings and get it over with… just putting it off I suppose.

    Was planning to redo the rear first with Dobinsons, Kings and Air Lifter bags (which should be interesting to make work with the extended travel). I tow a lot, but I’m also in the woods for work atleast once a week and would prefer not to be beat to death when I’m unloaded. There’s no perfect setup, but I definitely need to get rid of the squat when unloaded/barely loaded.

    If you go here, https://www.dobinsonsdirect.com/pro...-1990-1997-2-0-with-up-to-220lbs-loadc59-223v, it says 2022 Tundra on 2.0" lift with stock load. Some websites say they give 45mm of lift which comes out to about 1.8". Not sure if that helps.

    Ah no worries. I think they were added as compatible with the new Tundra only a few months ago.

    Did you end up using the 2inch spring in the rear . Getting a Westcott for my Trd pro and was thinking of getting a rear spring instead of a spacer . Do you know if we will need longer rear shocks ?
