    Hey Dave,
    I have 5100's on all four corners on my 08 double cab . What shackles would you recommend I put on back to get some rake back. Would a +2 work for me. Also would I have to make any other adjustments with the install of the shackles. Please PM me a price as well with anything you suggest.

    Thanks Marc

    Hi there
    I have a 2016 Trd pro and I'm was wanting to give the rear about an 1" or 2" lift without having to shim the front. What would you recommend? Thanks in advance and can I get a pricing of all the item for me to accomplish the lift.

    +3 shackles should do the trick, but give David a call, easiest and fastest way to contact him

    This is my setup. Bilstein 5100 all around, Coachbuilder +3 shackles and 1 shim per side up front.

    Stock 20's running 305/55/20 and only had to roll skid pan in just a hair to stop rub at full lock.

    Love the aggressive stance, may I ask what front setup with coil overs you have! What are the settings on the front and is yours a 3/1 lift!

    Nice, real nice!

    Would your front be considered a 3" lift now over a 2.5" as the PRO's are! I am thinking of buying a Toytec/Radflo 2.5 coilover with the 700lb springs and the rear Boss rears with reservoirs and adding a #2 CB shackles rear, do you think that would get me near a level if I set the fronts at 3" with minimal rear lift without having front higher!

    The PROs sit 2" taller than stock and with our shims installed they provide 1" totaling 3" up front. if you go with the Toytec coilovers I'd recommend using 2 shims on the left and 1 on the right and set the coilover at 2.5" (with the same preload on each side) This way the extra shim on the left side will correct the left front corner lean. The PRO coilovers have the correction built in. Using our +2"s in the rear will get you as close to level as we dare get with a 26 gal fuel tank. if you have the 38 gal you may want to use our +3"s. The traction control needs .750"-1" of measurable rake in order to the truck to drive 100%. Hope this helps. :)

    @leon4x4 We normally set the 5100's and 6112's up this way, thanks for pic @teedubbya this corrects the driver side lean and doesn't increase any preload. you may also want to consider using our +3"s over +2"s. the amount of rake is just enough the traction control is happy and doesn't visually look too tall in the rear. let me know if you need an hand with sizing or anything else. 801-635-4872

    @Coachbuilder1 just to be clear on this. I am looking at the best way to lift & level my 17 CM TRD4x4. Don’t want to go over 3” for warranty purposes. If I’m reading this correctly, would the following be the setup you’re describing:

    -5100’s front on top setting
    -+3 shackles
    -2 shims front
    - also will do a differential drop

    Also, truck had firestone ride rite’s already installed, with the +3s are spacers typically required? 1”?

    Also, are there any issues with stock rear shocks when adding the +3s overextending them or any issues with the 5100s? Trying to figure out if all 4 corners are needed.

    Thanks in advance for the help

    Sorry for the late reply, with the famous driver side lean we all have using 2 shims above the driver side 5100 and 1 above the passenger side 5100 you'll level the truck left to right and be sitting at 3.00" Our +3"s will provide 1.75" in the rear and work great with the rear 5100's
    You will need to use our air bag spacer kit with your air bags just so they cycle properly, Ideally using a matched rear shock like the 5100's is best and will provide the same valving front/rear and are extended in length.

    @Coachbuilder1, from where can I get the carrier bearing drop kit. Looked everywhere, can't find them (other than e b a y)? Also, do you sell the brake lines extension brackets? If so, what's included?

    I am installing 6112's at the 1.3 setting and 5160's rear. I have CB +2 s in the garage. I will be installing 305/75R17 with 0 offset. My question is: Will +2 shackles have too much rake? Should I install a CB drop kit if I do the +2's?
    Should I down size to +1? Shocks goin on this Saturday. Thanks
