the lift is here

neg on the vibes from about 5 to stop you can feel the tread on the road kind of buzzing but nothing from the suspension. feels real solid im happy i went with the setup i did.

 

Looking good!

 

thanks man your truck was a huge motivator for me loved yours since the first time i stumbled across it.

 

O wow freakin sweeeet man. Nice job.

Total build cost if ya dont mind?

 

what a difference wheels and tires make. awesome job man

 

I've got between 2500-3k in the suspension and rims and tires

 

your truck looks badass man! any rubbing on the tires at all?

 

good to hear!!

 

Great looking truck! Are those 265's or 285's?

 

They are285/75/16 have minimum rubbing so little I didn't do any trimming

 

Thats weird, I have 265's Duratracs on Countersteers lifted with Eibachs and 5100's set at zero and I rub.

 

do you have any idea what eliminated the vibes for you? i'm dealing with those and i haven't got a solution yet

 

when i first drove it after i installed the aal and shims i realized the shims were on backwards so i flipped them around and vibes went byebye.
i would first try a carrier bearing drop kit fairly cheap and takes less than 5 to install, if you still have vibes try axle shims.

 

yeah, i figured you did it all at once by reading previous posts. so it would be hard to give a definite answer. i'm trying the cheapest solutions first and hoping they are going to fix it. tire rotation and balance = fail. so i guess the carrier bearing drop is the next option. sorry to jack the thread. your truck looks great man, i'm digging the black on black

 

How much lift did you end up with in the front? I'm doing the same thing with a double cab 4x4...

 

i didnt get any measurements before but just from how i have the suspension setup my guess would be around 2.75, ill get some measurements later on today on all 4 corners and you can use that as kind of a guide.

 

Man, whatta difference...it looks great!

 

How do you like the "ball joint" UCA?
I know you haven't had them long, are they quiet

 

they havent made a squeak or any noise yet. i am very pleased with them and i think they are a very good looking product as well. i would highly recommend this suspension setup to anyone mine doesnt see any hard offroad been in a few mud holes and smaller trails since the upgrade but memeber birdTRD has the same exact setup minus ucas i think he has better built uniballs and he off roads his hard he has some pics in his gallery check them out and you can see the flex you can still get out of this setup.

 

firt wash and wax since the upgrade.


next on the list paint those damn calipers black!
