The front spacer is inboard on the A arm. the shorter height will yield more lift at the wheel.

The OME "A" coil goes on the drivers side, "B" on pass. (Rear)

I know that the "A" goes on the drivers side & the "B" goes on the pass. side, I was just wondering why one is longer than the other!

The "A", longer, coil is on the drivers side because the gas tank and driver are always on that side. A full tank and driver and it'll sit level.

So was this the kit for 279 ? I was a little leary about the front spacers and was thinking of going with the all new coils... But yours looks great and you seem to be happy with it..

The kit I got included 3" rear coils, front 3" spacers, & front diff. drop I also got the gas charged rear shocks. If you have the money to spand I would go with new coils all the way around. I had to do some minor trimming on the front to fit the 285's .

The total cost with shipping was around $429. Toytec will give you a discount if you tell them you are member on Yota Tech.
