How many shims with 5100's

I have a 2016 Tundra 4x4 I'm planning on installing Bilstein 5100's on middle setting (1.5"). How many Coachbuilder .5" shims do I need and do you have a link for them? Thank you.

 

Shims aren't a great idea with billy 5100s. The shocks are much more likely to fold like origami if you go off road. Just my .02

 

Are you trying to stop the Toyota lean? If so then the smallest on the drivers side only

 

how much is the lean?

 

Depends on the truck. 1/4-1/2”

 

My truck had almost no lean when I first bought it.
-Used 2010, mid 60k miles.
-Came from PO with 3" spacer lift.

Within a few months I swapped to the Toytec/Eibach coilovers to ditch the spacer lift. After installing, the drivers side lean was close to 3/4", very noticeable. I ordered 2 coach builder shims and installed on the drivers side, perfectly level side-to-side on front and rear axles.

There is no right answer, it seems to be different for each truck and for each suspension setup. I ended up with the same amount of lift in the front going from spacers to coilovers, but the lean was much worse, not sure how to explain that. Unfortunately it may take a test fit and measure before you decide if you need 1 or 2 shims.

 

Zero for me.

 

Same here. Went from spacers with no lean to icon Coilovers now with lean. Luckily it’s easy to fix with a couple extra turns with the spanner wrench.

 

zero for me as well
