    Without the swaybar relocators, the swaybar pretty much makes contact with the CO. I was forced to remove the swaybar because I need to drive the truck until the missing relocator shows up (hopefully tomorrow).

    I wouldn't recommend removing the swaybar for anything but offroad. I have been babying the truck on the street because it is not too stable on turns. As soon as the part shows up, the swaybar is going back on.

    In terms of Toytec's response to my call about the missing part, Sarah? was very nice and apologized profusely. It was a serious inconvenience, but mistakes happen. This is a great lift and the folks at Toytec fixed my missing part issue straight away.

    Gald to hear all is good.

    One more reason why, before doing any install, I make sure all parts are accounted for at least 1 week out. :)

    Well, the rest of my sway bar relocator kit showed up yesterday and I was able to complete the lift install. I am happy with this lift overall. For the price, I like the Light Racing UCAs and they made alignment easy.
    I wasn't able to do the rear TSB because I am out of warranty, and the stock springs up front were crap on my taco. Overall, this lift has made the truck handle a lot better.

    Just wondering if sway bar relocators are necessary for other coilover type lifts besides toytec. Like Icon or King. If not, how are they different? Is it the UCA's? Toytec uses Light racing UCA's? I guess my question is: Will I need SB relocator with Icon coilovers and TC UCA's?

    Yes. The sway bar relocator is dependant on how low the coils on the shocks are. Some are positioned lower than others, so the sway bar needs to be moved.

    So Icon's to not require a SB relocator?
