Yeah, I figured that out....

Anyone have a part number for the 2014+ Toyota front spacers? I'm curious to see if those and some 30mm trim packers for the rear will satisfy my lust for a lift while I finish several outstanding projects..

I am thinking the same thing...

Sweet. Now if I could only find 200 specific trim packers. Unless, of course, I'm barking up the wrong tree and the rear trim packers do not have to be specific to our trucks. I can find 100/80 packers in 15 or 30mm all day long. Anyone?

Thanks for the part number MS btw! I get real tired head sometimes using search and am willing to take the nut kicking most often handed out for just asking.

I run 80 series (10mm) trim Packers.

I wouldn't do any trim packers in the rear to be honest. The rake on my 200 was almost 2". This dropped it to less than 1".

Do you use the OE conical bump stops in addition to the trim packers? I ask, because I was under the impression that you could install the packer with the OE spring cone, but I was unable to. Should I just throw out the cone and just use the packer by itself?

And to those wondering, and 80 Series trim packer is the same diameter as a 200 spring.

Yes is the answer. In layers from top to bottom. Trim packers then the conical cones. I crawled around in the cold garage floor so I was hesitant to go do that. Hope that helps.

I'm cool with a bit of a rake. Mine is not too noticeable. Just want the extra clearance and look until I can decide and pull the trigger on a "real" lift. Plus, I'm not real excited about letting some moron at any number of 4wd shops in the dfw area wrench on my rig (most of them don't have a clue that Land Cruisers still exist much less any idea how relatively sophisticated the suspension systems are on our 200's).... I plan to perform any and all work to my rig myself and I don't just have a mother lode of motivation most of the time to tackle these things. That's where MUD comes in! I use others rigs/mods to taunt myself into getting busy (actually there is a wealth of REAL information on here which is both educational and motivational).

So the cone does NOT go through the center of the packer? That doesn't seem right???

I'll check it out again after church.

Snap a picture if you can. I tried to fit my cone through, and it was too big for the packer. But, it wouldn't make sense to rest the cone on the packer either, as I am not sure what would hold the assembly in place at that point.

As promised.
