So I have been thinking about what I can afford after trading in my AC for a double cab in regards to a small lift (leveling it out). The threads on the spacers-diff drops, rear aal, rear blocks are endless. I have been going through them and trying to pinpoint something that will work for me. It seems some people love the spacer kits-and some say the 2.5"-3" beefed up coilovers are the only way to go.
At first I was thinking: hey Ill get the front spacer-diff drop and rear block-and understand I may have some cv issues that can be resolved with better clamps-(cheap, available anywhere) or after market cv boots. So after be reminded by <tundrainorange> in a recent post I remembered how nice the camburg 2.5 coilovers are-wow- Ok, ok I get to the point-
So if I do get those coilovers- do the cv issues still arise-? What about the rear end? What’s best?-I spend 800-1k for the front end and throw a 1inch rubber block or aal in the rear? My guess is that the rear is not lifted and I would love that because I plan on looking into that firestone airbag kit-for towing-and heavy payloads that over exceed my current ac-
I also see that <tundrainorange> has the camburg UCA-which im sure is a hell of a set up-but lets face-the line must be drawn somewhere-and my budget is not unlimited. Are the UCA necessary for the setup to work? The reason I am reconsidering the coilovers-is the next tundra-the doublecab I am trading in for, I want it to be done right-and done right up front-I plan on holding on to her for awhile. And that is not suppose to offend the spacer guys—as up until about 10 min ago was set on buying the Revtek kit.
I would love for the coilover guys to check in and give a few thoughts-and anyone else that feels they can help-
Thanks-
Todd
*****the reason I put this in the 1st gen tundra threads is because thats it is directed to**** not all toyota vehicles
