    Toytec is a greedy company with horrible customer service. Period. I even pm'd David on here and got zero response. Before my purchase he would message me back within an hour everytime. I hope they make this right for everyone. If not this will come back and bite them, it always does.

    I also think they are assembled wrong. It should be on the top ring for max lift not bottom.

    The lowest clip is the lowest setting. The higher the clip the more lift you get. They look assembled wrong. Heres a video for the 5100. Check out around the 1 minute mark. The Eibach may be different but worth a check...

    @CyberViking , It might cost having to pay some labor time, but I think the easy way is to have these removed, adjusted to a higher setting and put back in the truck. No shims needed.

    I used two shims and the 1.9” setting on my Billy’s. The higher you set the shock the more preload there is, shims cause no preload so I put 1” of lift with shims. You have to buy bumpstop extensions though if you use more than one. @Coachbuilder1 makes a nice kit.

    Any update on this? I just ordered the 2.5 Eibach fronts and won't be happy with 2" of lift.

    The update is that it was resolved by ordering a different set of coilovers from a different vendor. Toytec was difficult to deal with, more so than any company I've ever done business with. I'm glad it's over; I was refunded money after sending the defective coilovers back. I went with 3" Vated adjustable coilovers from FatBobs garage and in my opinion they're better than the Eibachs.

    I have Billstein 5100s in the rear and Toytec's Shackles set at 1". I'm exactly 1" higher in the rear. Looking back, the Toytec Shackles are built well but they don't fit perfectly and for $200 they should... On the middle setting (1") it's not unheard of that they rub the bed bolts above the shackles causing a very annoying metal on metal squeaking. I don't have that issue but I knew that I would have just by test-fitting so I ground the bolts down slightly before installation.

    I should've gone with a 1" coachbuilder or total chaos shackle. Toytec is held in high regard here on the forum and I'm sure they sell some good stuff but my personal experience has not been good with them.

    Mine just arrived last week. Hope to get installed this weekend. They come preset at 3" right? How much lift did you get after installation?
