My lift check list.

3.camburg coilovers 2.5
4.total chaos uca
5. pro comp rear shocks with toytec Add A leaf

open to any input thanks!!

 

I'm not positive but you might need some wheel spacers? I'm sure someone will chime in on the situation.

 

why would he need spacers? I have the same tire size and rim size with TC UCAs and the only rub I get is on the body mount on a bumpy turn.

 

If you plan on wheeling alot- some extended brake lines might be a good idea...Other than that I think you are set.
I don't think you'll need wheel spacers- but you might want bigger tires once you get that lift under there.

 

Thats why I said "I'm not positive."

 

ah gotcha, no problem man. I was wondering if there was something that I missed lol

 

Its all good, no worries!

 

longer u-bolts, and centering pin, sway bar spacer to clear coilovers unless you are removing sway bar, make sure you have bolts for the top of the coilover (my icons came with a different thread pattern than the stock bolts and did not come with new bolts).

 

i wouldnt have thought of the sway bar lol seeing how I dont have one.

 

Yeah, they were supposed to come with new bolts and if they had, I wouldn't have noticed the different pattern but since I ended up trying to use the factory bolts when I did not see any in the box, I realized I needed to take a quick trip to the hardware store for some new grade 8's. They did not send me the sway bar spacer either so I just removed the sway bar temporarily but since the factory coilovers were already off, I wasn't going to put them back on because of some missing bolts.

 

X2

 

for sure. those pro comps are junk and if your gonna preload the CO your prob gonna want bigger tires. your off to a good start

 

Thanks everyone, yea i dont know why i didnt think of getting 5100's kinda spaced haha. I kinda wanted to go with the 265 cause i travel alot for work. should i set it lower then 2.5 so it looks better?

 

I have my coilovers set to 2.5" with 265/70R17 which is considered a 32" tire. I think it looks pretty good. check my gallery

 

am gonna get the extended brake lines also. Should I keep the sway bar? There shouldnt be any vibration with this set up?

 

So i went with the icon coilovers should be at home thrusday same with the TC UCAs cant wait. should I buy some axle shims? I just added the longer U bolts to my list of things to still order. If you guys can think of anything else feel free to throw it out there thanks.

 

So I'm just wondering, what would happen if he doesn't get extended brake lines??? Just like OP, I want to make sure I have everything before I install my Tuff Country 3"... And what about a differential drop? Do I need that too?

 

Fuck you guys then... All you fuckin haole pussies!!!

 

Not positive but I heard you really dont need the diff drop for a 3" lift. You dont need extended brake lines either unless you are going to do a good amount of wheelin. Flexing your suspension could damage them

 

^^anger issues? chill out dude...

but the diff drop lowers ur front diff to reduce cv angles if im not mistaken. some say its not necessary but for $25 its cheap insurance imo...as far as brake lines idk someone else needs to say somethin. only thing i can think of is they limit flex acting as limiting straps. which would cause them to break
