    Wonder if shorter links would help by lowering the sway bar. That might be inexpensive and worth a try. Maybe one from a rav4 or highlander. Where exactly does it rub. Do the coils rub the sway or is it a tire rub. If tire then where does it rub. Calling it a night. Games over. I will look at mine tomorrow after work.

    So I put my switch in the bed. So I went off the bstterybto a in line fuse then from there down in the engine bay and followed the gram up to the where the bed starts. With the bed light wires they come out in the slits in the back of the bed near the rear window. They then go down and meet with the line wire that you have there. Then from there I went straight back to the bumper, across it to where I wanted my switch.
    Tips I would follow is keepbit away from ur exhaust, use lots of zip ties, put all the wires in the plastic wire protector sleeves. This will keep your wires protected big time. I also used pex rings, caps, abd t's. I crimped everything so it's all together and won't go anywhere.
    I can make a video to make it easer

    That's exactly what I'm looking to do. I want to have something small and simple so I can be self sufficient

    Thought about a shorter sway bar link but it seems that would then pulled the sway bar into the coil as it tilted it down. Not 100% sure on that either. The way I have it now with the 285 Tire which I had downsized from a 315 and a 1 inch wheel spacer it does not rub even at full lock unless I am sitting on an angle or hit a dip, so it's not too bad the way it is but I'm still not 100% happy with it. I figure for the amount of money I have into it I should be much happier with it. Just hate to throw good money after bad constantly. If I can get it right I don't mind spending the money. Just an expensive chance to take all the time when in the end sometimes it doesn't work out.

    So the bolts on my methods rusted after two years so I decided to change them. Now I can’t decide on what color I wanna stick with. Only one set is painted red and two are blue. Bouta prep the last set now.

    Metallic blue or bright red to match the truck accents.

    The red looks good with that pro logo under the mirror. I'd vote red. What do you have on the truck that is blue?

    Nothing at all. Just thought it would look cool and different but I’m starting to lean towards red
