Hello all, I started out my suspension lift journey as a lot of budget-conscious noobs…a spacer on top of the coilover. I started learning more and more from this fantastic forum that if you really start more intense offroading with spacers, your shock can bottom out, resulting in failure. I subsequently got rid of the ProComp spacers on my Limited and replaced with the TRD Pro Fox shocks.

I’m pretty sure this happened in Matt’s video, to this Taco. It’s also a neat tutorial on how to trail-repair a coilover.
