    Now that I'm understanding it a little better and looking at it closer. Here's two new pictures. I think where the spacer is to drop the carrier bearing at the first joint if I added a couple stainless steel washers to drop it just a hair more that would be more straight even though it's pretty close now and by doing that would actually help to straighten out where it meets in the back at the differential. That might be enough to help before I try the shims to Twist the differential upwards. ??20160416_230604.jpg20160416_230623.jpg

    It rides good. the bigger wheels and extra bumper weight makes my gas mileage crappy but I don't care. i had rubbing when turning with bumps and backing but the new bumper took care of all that.

    Looks great. Worst part of all what we do with these lifts is the gas mileage takes a beating. But it is what it is! We're not driving a Prius!

    See build page.

    Had it for 2 weeks today. If I wanted to nit-pick I had less than half an inch of sag as of today. However to the naked eye, it's not noticeable. On the rear I got a bit over 3". And up front about 2.8" over stock. Front now at 2.5" over stock and rear seems to be the same. Hope this helps.

    It doesn't look to bad but picture might not show it well. But having 5" lift there is definatly need for shims. It would be good if shop that does lifts measure your angle and corrected with shims. And I don't think you need to mess with carrier bearing just yet, first get shims in and see how it drives, if it's still vibrates then add washers.

    Toytec BOSS 2.0 set at 2.5" front, 3" rear. Ran into the awesome UCA bolt design so waiting to install the All Pro UCA's until the new bolts come in. So far, rides about the same as my 4Runner did with the similar ICON setup.

    I didn't. All my rubbing was from the front fender liner area. installing the new bumper required trimming about 12 inches off the liner and 6 inches off the fender flares.

    I don't know what all was done to it. But when I am done with mine I will have over $50,000 in mine! I am about there. Actually might have passed it up, and I bought the truck at invoice and got discounts on just about every part and install! Only 600 miles on mine. Not for sale!!!
