    Opinions on best control arms for the NE area. Sand driving and salty sandy winter roads. TC with the uniball or Camburg with the performance ball joint? After looking at the light racing arms I think when the time comes I will not go that route.

    Pretty much stock
    Many people from t4r are running them without issues..including members with multiple trips to durhamtown/tellico with them. The only failure was a bolt broken and that was a incorrect installation.

    I also ran the original light racing uca's on my 2009 that didn't kill me either. I guess i just like to live life on the edge.

    VSC error after installing my rear 1 inch blocks today. I installed the Boss 2.0 yesterday. I drove almost 100 miles today with no errors. I came home, installed the rear. Took it for a test drive after. No light or issues until about a mile later. Anyone who had the VSC error know how to correct it? What do I need to do? Any help is greatly appreciated.

    My drivers side is measuring 21" and passenger side is at 21.25" .

    Would a 1/4" thick spacer on drivers side correct this?

    Also how easy is it to intall those top strut spacers?

    Poly or aluminum or steel?

    Hey all, I got a bit of a problem. I have to park next to my co-workers lifted 2015 and it's making me really impatient to get my suspension done. It looks so small haha

    Anyway I'm waiting for the toytec coilovers to come back in stock. The ETA has been pushed back a couple of times. I'm contemplating ordering they toytec kit with TC UCAs with exception to the front coilovers and ordering up a set of Kings for for the front. I don't forsee issues unless there is any major valving differences between the boss rear shock and king fronts. I know the kings are progressive but not sure if the boss rears are linear or progressive. I suppose I could call toytec and find out but figure if anyone has the info we could share the wealth of knowledge with the rest of the community. Thanks

    You should give Toytec a call or an email. I was told they are offering FOX 2.5's for the same price and are the closest to the BOSS spec. They should compliment the BOSS rear shocks nicely.

    Does anyone know if Toytec redesigned the lower shock adjustment tool. I watched a you tube vid of how the tool was stripping the adjustment holes.
