    Oh ok, I drive 21 miles one way to work.
    After my install I had my steering wheel straight & both wheels were pointed out slightly, when I test drove it you could hear the tires being pushed instead of just rolling.

    About to order the driveshaft spacer. Bolt head say 11 on them but wanted to verify I need to order the 66x66mm patterns with 11mm bolts. Does this sound correct given my model. 2005 4cyl 5 speed prerunner

    But would the 66mmx66mm be a better fit if it is the proper size?

    It says 11 can be stamped on 10 & 11mm bolts so that doesn't really tell you anything. The 65X65 works with both but the 66 wont. If you not 100% positive I'd order the 65. That's what I did, that way it would work no matter what.

    - Extended rear shocks
    - Brake line extension bracket
    - Carrier Bearing drop Bracket

    It ran me $760, including shipping from California to Texas. But I also cut the front spacer from the package since I already have one on my truck. I ordered through Headstrong Offroad and if you call or email them they can make you a custom kit with exactly what you want. Haven't gotten everything on the truck yet since I had to special order 35" Goodyear MT/R tires. I'll Post up some pics hopefully by the weekend.

    is anyone running just the spindle, 4.5 back spaced wheels, 1.5" wheel spacers, and 285/75/16s?

    any major rubbing? i rub slightly with my 885x's, konigs, 1.5 wheel spacers and 285s when reversing...but since the spindles push out another .75...i don't know if it'll be worse.
    i don't want to buy a smaller spacer..and i don't want to remove it when/if i do install spindles. i love the wider stance.

    Then yes, You will rub. I only rubbed on one side in reverse at full left lock, but with 1.25 spacers and Maxtrac spindles and 4.5 BS rims with 285/75/16. So maybe look at your CMC and see if theres more room to cut it back more.

    I have the 4" spindles and Spydertrax 1.25 spacers with 17" Racelines wheels, 4.5" backspacing 285 70R17 Toyo ATII's and rubbed like hell. Did CMC and Plastics, with camber adjusted as well. Still rubbed like hell when making U-turns and just like what Jeff said about backing up. I eliminated all rubbing by removing my Spydertrax spacers on the front. No more rubbing.. Also my Spydertax spacers on the rear stayed on and now my rear tires line up nicely with my front...... but to each there own.... Sacrifice or deal with the rubbing for the look or the care for your wheels? I hated the rubbing on my nice wheels......

    I guess only way to find out on my application is to try it...I could probably make it work..or might have to remove/replace spacer
