      Do you happen to have your all four corner pre lift measurements. It would help me answer my last question. I promise I will quit stalking you soon :)

        I didnt take any measurements sorry. I can tell you the rear sits 1" higher than the front tho.

      Been dealing with the TW famous Marie at headstrong. Would their 2in spring or block work for something with a little less rake?

        you could prolly get an add-a-leaf but id steer clear of a block.

      With regard to the rear. I know you went with the Dakar spring. I'm thinking about something more level as the Dakar gets almost 3 inches?

        I have about 1" of rake with the dak's, and everyone comments how they like the stance of it.

      Thank you for your response. So grateful. I'm going with the stock wheel as well...by choice. It looks so clean and somewhat deceptive. It's like what?!?? stock shouldn't look so high. So, you have pretty much made me comfortable with the front end choice.

        id suggest getting some rims you dont have to use spacers on, everything drives and feels better with those off now.

      Hi TruKnight. Great build thread! Thanks for posting. You may be one of the main reasons my wallet is about to get a little lighter. I have an 08 TRD Sport access cab. With regard to the 885's and Billies at 0 have you had any issues with rubbing on the 285's? Were the uca's necessary or did you go ahead and put them on before you tried to align?

        thank you kindly! TW has taken a few bites out of my wallet too over the years =x ... I will occasionally rub turning at a specific angle but otherwise it never does. I didnt do the cab mount chop. uca's arent strictly necessary but I changed them anyway just because peoples opinions were 50/50 on the alignment with stock.

        continued: I changed them when I put the lift on (getting that bolt out was awful) before I went to get new tires/alignment. never had any issues with the alignment tho or the lift in general, now 6 years later. =)

        my advice is to just do it right the first time and it will cost what it costs and then just enjoy it =D

      I was curious about the headlight filler piece for your front conversion.
      I noticed the piece is smaller on the 2012+ compared to the previous ones. How did you get the headlight filler piece to fit or what did it connect to?

      Have you started up on the roof rack project yet?
