    I figured because I have a 6in lift that I would need to keep it for stability.

    The king shock and coil are a little bigger in diameter I believe and the sway bar sort of wraps around it. It's understandable. Your springs are 700's??? Bumper winch???

    Little bit of maneuvering. Just make sure the forward side is inside the mounts and it'll lift right into place

    Your stability will come from the coil springs. I see you don't have a aftermarket bumper or a winch so there is no weight to compensate for on your truck. At most your truck will dip/dive little more going into corners. If it dives or dips to much going fast it will try to correct itself by braking and steering the opposite way (VSC engages).

    Not sure what spring weight that they used. I was in contact directly with Michael Eads of King shock , they custom made these for me to work with Tuff country 6 inch lift so I wouldn't need any spacers or blocks. Can kind of see in this pic.20170401_160543.jpg

    Anti-lock already kick on and make lots of noise going into a corner a little fast if I don't have the VSC disabled.

    Originally thought it was rubbing something but figured out it was just the breaking noise. Now I just disable it before I take off and then there is no issues.

    Mine does the same thing with approximately 5 inches in the front. I plan to remove the sway bar and give it a run. That grinding noise is unnerving isn't it.

    Lol! Yes I hate it! I don't always disable it and then I go out I drive with a dip a little fast and there it is! Very frustrating. I did have Toyota try to reflash it, buit it did not fix it.

    Lol. Yeah they can't fix that. It has to be there. The vsc may just need to be recalibrated also

    Yeah, not sure how they do that. Somebody said it's probably the yaw sensor which seems to be in the steering wheel or column I think. Vehicle feels it is going to tip so anti-lock brakes are applied in one of the brakes that it believes will help and ends up causing all these irritating noises!

    Do you have any pictures of the beam on a garage door or something so we can see the cutoff?

    Where did you get the USB outlet and how easy was it to install? Do you have step by step directions?
    Thanks

    I was thinking it needed bigger wheels and a lift.
