I took a look at the 1.5 rear spacers by cornfed and i haven't heard much at all about them on here. Anyone have any insight? Im also planning on doing 3in spacers in the front and either 285 mud terrains or 295 all terrains.

same old story. a spacer is a spacer pretty much. itll make your springs sag even faster. dont know if 285's will fit w/ spacers on stock coils. why the 1.5 in back, and 3" in front?

Id save my money and get some day star spacers if you're going with some spacers!

I second that. I'm also curious as to why 1.5" in back and 3" in front?

dude, if you need spacers, then you dont need the tire. do it the RIGHT way. spacers are a form of putting sugar packets under a table that wobbles.

The reason i am doing spacers is because i am still in highschool and i have to pay for everything that i do to my truck, so i cant afford new coils all around. I am not going to do daystar because they are polyurethane and they shrink. I want to do 1.5in spacers in the rear because i want my truck to sit level or a reverse rake. All full 3in kits always have a forward lean, which i hate. So im planning on doing 3in toytec spacers and 1.5 cornfed in the rear, even though they are polyurethane.

for the polyurethane, get prothane.

Spacers are just a band aid. You will also have limited flex. Save and get springs.

What vehicle/year are we talking about?

I have a pair of OME 890s for sale.

1999 4Runner. If i get new coils ill need new shocks.. right?

Cornfed is one of the first to make spacers for Tacos & 4Runners and I think he has the best design for the front coils. I still have a set for sale that will yield you 2.5 ,I wouldn't do 3 for the front you could run into cv problems. Spacers are a good place to start.

not totally necessary. ive been using my 881's w/ topout and 891's on oem replacement shocks for about a year

Save your money & do it right with coils. They're not that much more than spacers, the amount of labor is the same & you'll be happier in the long run. Watch the member classifieds. There are often good deals from people upgrading or selling their rigs. If your rig has more than 60k miles you probably need shocks anyway.

I'm running stock length shocks with my lift and have not noticed anything bad. I'm running Tundra TRDs in front and OME 891s in back.
