for all the guys with the "FJ LEAN" and have used the OME spacer

I have noticed my Fj leans to the left a bit.....and want to know has anyone added the little OME spacer on there lift and has it taken care of the lean issue at all? hard to imagine that a little half in spacer will correct the issue.....I think the spacer is a half inch.....anyways any info greatly appreciated

I installed the OME spacer (something like TP14?) when I did the 883s... as far as I can tell, the FJ sits level.

Re: for all the guys with the "FJ LEAN" and have used the OME spacer

I installed 895/995 OME setup with the Toytec 1/2" spacers on both sides and mine sites less than 1/8" low on the driver's side now

883 springs and TP-14 spacer on the driver side and perfectly level. Highly recommend both.

I used the 1/2" top mounts for their strut and coil upgrade in one of their OME packages....if mine leans it is small enough to not be noticeable. I never noticed lean with oem suspension either though....guess I was lucky.

I have the OME heavy up front and medium in back.......anyone else with set up use the OME spacer and did it help level your FJ?

Seems like adding a spacer to only the front driver-side coilover would introduce a small imbalance in the suspension; ala circle track stagger. Anybody bothered to put their FJ on scales and check the corner weights after making this change?

I had one that I got with my lift kit from metal tech....it was a small flat ring and it cost around $7 bucks I didnt throw it on because others said there would be no need........I am SPECIFICALLY looking for answers on this spacer......will it improve the lean, and is it ok to do seriously wheeling with this thing on
