I want to get an ARB bumper for my truck, I have a 4 in lift on my taco. And I just bought brand new coil springs and struts from the dealer. Will my truck sag? I heard ARB bumpers are very light, around 75 lb?

Not even close. Double that at least then add a winch for more weight.

Silverpataco can tell you what you need.
 
I have a road armor, bumpers about 135 lbs, and I have a winch, you'll have quite a bit of sag, I'm eventually gonna put OME 886 coils and OME shocks on to push the front back up to a 3" lift
 
What do you have now for lift? If a spacer the definitely get a better lift but its the springs that need to be upgraded to handle more weight. Stock springs are something like 550# id go with eibach springs from toytec at 620# spring rate or ome 886 at 4 in of lift and 650# spring rate. Either way need shocks also either bilsteins or ome
 
Well I don't want to get new coil springs, since I literally just got a pair of brand new ones from the dealer. The struts are brand new too. I was thinking of getting the bilstien 5100's since they are adjustable, I could set it for 1 in higher with the spacer lift on to compensate for the sag.
 
You can do that but its going to sag alot like 2 inches with those springs id bet, and after adding bilsteins with spacer lift it will be real stiff but give it a shot and upgrade down the road if nothing else

Since I've never posted a pic of my taco on this Fourm people have questioned that I even have one.... Well here ya go. This was my last trip in octilllo. I know I look like major fag with my bandana but all my friends had them on haha. I also don't post pics of my truck becuase its stock and I hate it stock, I have a 4 in lift kit and new halo led head lamps waiting to be installed. Only thing I have left to save up for are some nice method wheels and some bfg muds. Once that happens I'll be posting more.View attachment 9568

I said I have the lift but I haven't installed it yet. I'll post a pic of all my lift kit parts in a second just to prove to you that I have my lift and everything. It'll happen just not any time soon I have other bills to pay like rent.

Ok, just for some reason i thought u had it installed.... then not installed, and i got u confused with the guy who had a 6" fabtech lift installed, then asked what lift he had installed.

Gotta admit, posting u have a lift installed, and then either posting later its not installed, or dont know what lift u bought after u already posted specs is kind of disorienting lol.

Maybe i just easily confused.... or i just read these posts and actually did the math.

Whatever u do, dont get sick.... my girls er bill was just shy of 3k for a couple hr visit. Somehow thats with insurance.
