    I haven't done the lift yet. Trying to decide on keeping the 17 TRD sport rim or changing it. Maybe the black TRD 4runner?

    No X 2. Diff drop on 2nd gen is counter productive. Causes more problems than it ALLEGEDLY prevents.

    I look at my tires everyday to see if they're wearing down yet so I can tell my wife I need new ones haha. I love my tires though and I'm glad they're holding up well. I either want the same ones in 285's or want to try out the 255/85's as well.

    And if you start to get vibes I would recommend the ECGS bushing swap for the CV needle bearings. Only way to truly get rid of it.

    If you have the right tools (I.e. Bearing remover, race drive) and some knowledge of front suspension and CVs I would say a 4/10

    Just ordered my parts, decided to go with 884s up front, my rear sags as is sits now and would rather have a little rake once everything settles rather than a negative rake.

    Does anyone have any pics of 884's on a double cab? I was wanting to do 884's with an AAL and 265/70/17. Wanting to keep a mostly Factory look and avoid a lot of the possible driveline issues

    I have 884's on my 15 TRD Sport. Put them on at 750miles when my truck was brand new. I have 9000 miles on them. It lifted it 2 inches in the front. I have not touched the back yet. Even tho the front sits a little higher. I'm waiting till I put more miles on before touching the rear. I really like to go higher but I don't want to run into any issues with vibration. Here is a pic. This is taken with the drive way slopes down a little. But on the level i' a little. Owe high. Truck rides great and handle great. Stock size tires till they wear out.

    yeah I have newest TSB leaf spring. btw, instead of the Deavers AAL I went with HS AAL. But it's supposed to be the same height results. The last thing I added to the rear set up was sumosprings bumpstops.

    I might, but whether or not you'd want to mess with shipping is the issue as I'm in Ga.
    How many miles do you have on the parts? Have they sagged or settled any since you put them on?
