6112 Questions

will I need a diff drop by going with the 6112s on the highest setting.

 

It's recommended but not necessary

 

How much lift will be needed to get my 2018 tundra level with the front running the 6112s.

 

I’m asking about the rear lift didn’t make that clear sorry.

 

Here are my results. Might help you glean the info you need?

Started with an SR5 + TRD Offroad package
Moved to:
-6112s up front, top setting
-5160s in the rear, plus an AAL
-I did go with the drop kit. Good practice, and cheap enough so why not?



(PS: the plus/minus 1/4" here or there is probably me and my eyeballing the hub and holding up a tape measure)

 

Cement Did you shim the front or just add the 6112s

 

No shims. Just the shocks.

 

For those ground to fender measurements, I should have noted I went from the stock 275/65R18s to 295/70R18s at the same time I did the suspension upgrade.

 

Cement did you do any fender modifications to fit the 295/70/18

 

The front mudflaps had to come off BUT that's only probably because I installed Spidertrax 1.25" spacers. Well worth a try keeping them if you dont have a wheel and/or spacers that push the tire out. Other than that, no other modifications.

 

Cement did that tire size hit your UCAs before the wheel spacers were installed?

 

Was done all at the same time so I cannot say. However, I don't believe they would have. Eyeball measurement says there's a good 2.5" of space where it matters. Here's a really crappy pic with a ruler in place. I need to get under there and take a better one at some point

 

Cement in your opinion would a 285/75/18 on stock wheels fit your set up and not interfere with the stock UCAs

 

I am no expert. But yes, in my opinion they'll fit just fine.

I tried to get a better pic but its just too hard to do. Its tough to do because of the curve of the tire. Actual measurement is somewhere around 2" if you go from the outside most edge flange of the UCA straight out horizontally, parallel to the ground to where it would hit the curve of the tire. If that makes sense?

 

Thanks cement for the advice and help.

 

I have 6112s at top setting, stock TRD OR wheels with 285/75/18. There’s about a finger’s width between the tire and the stock UCA.

 

RangerBp interested in what your rear set up is.

 

Toytec shackle @ 1.5”, stock otherwise.

 

RangerBP what shocks are you running out back.

 

Apologies. Forgot that piece. 5100s.

 

Thanks do you have a side view of you rig RangerBP?

 

whst about up front ?

 

Winner winner.

6112s at 2.5”, no shims.

 

tire size?? Great looking truck

 

285/75/18 duratrac on stock TRD OR wheels.

Edit: And thank you.

 

The Expedition 1 front bumper helped fit it all in there. I’m guessing I’d’ve had to cut and heat-gunned and everything else with the stock bumper.

There are folks around with stock bumpers who run that size on those wheels that can help if that’s the direction you’re going.

 

All great info. Appreciate that. I am thinking this will be my next tire and hope to have a bumper before then. Looking at the victory 4x4, c4 Overland and heft fab bumper options. Hopefully will have a similar outcome to yours!
