    Bilstein 5100s Cornfed 1” rear spacers
    I had a dealer install Bilstein 5100 on all four corners today (1.75" in the front) and 1" Cornfed spacers to the rear (stock coils). I noticed that the whole driver's side (front and back) has 0.5" lean. Is this supposed to happen with the Cornfed spacers. I thought that the driver side spacer was taller to compensate the lean? Or could it be that the dealer installed the spacers wrong way around?

    Common issue with the 4runners, when your gas tank is on the full side it’ll sag on the drivers side. It can be remedied by installing a .25” spacer on the front drivers side.

    Commonly discussed but did you ever try the gas thing? I did. Pulled into station near empty. No one in car. Measured all 4 corners and for those that know me I'm anal for accuracy. Filled the tank up and all 4 corners did not move so much as a 32nd. Nada, zip, zero
    This is with Eibach springs. Never tried it oem

    The tank is indeed almost full. I guess I’ll have to measure again once the tank is almost empty.
