    Here are mine installed...just waiting on springs. I will need to grind off part of the bumper bracket if I go with the 1.5" setting.

    It's less Tacoma and more mod
    Gotta be careful with the hi-lift also consider getting one of the offroad stabilizing blocks for it. On a separate note why doesn't your ass end flex more when jacking it up? It looks like the axle is staying perfectly parallel to the bed and bumper.

    I've been wondering the same thing..could it be because there is no weight in the back? It seems to flex fine when I'm wheeling...

    Lol!

    Well thanks y'all. Conor (CBoy808) cut em but I sent him the design after fiddling around in Photoshop for a couple minutes. He's already got it in vector, so I'm sure he can just hit the button and cut you some more.

    Not sure where to ask this, so Ill ask here. I know that removing the sway-bar helps you get more flex and possible more travel, but how does it affect the truck when driving on an off-camber road? I figured that your truck would lean more towards the downward slope of the road? Is this correct?

    ...also if your shocks are hanging short. check brake system too just to be sure nothing is short.
