    This is nearly the exact setup I have been discussing with @blaineehughes. He's super happy with his setup. He also didn't have to replace the UCAs or extended brake lines. He did use a carrier bearing and a trim packer. I really like the rake on your truck too! I may not be hauling tonnage but there are times I do haul a couple hundred pounds. I also want to be able to pull my tandem axle utility trailer with my tractor on it and not worry. Looks Great!!

    Who did you buy your setup through if you don't mind? Was everything you needed in the box?
    Thanks,
    Rob

    I would highly recommend any of Adam’s Polishing. Usually I’m not into purchasing Detail products, I would just go to the car wash. However, I enjoy these products so much that I now wash my own vehicles. I’ve also contemplated opening my own business with detailing because these products are great and I know people would pay to get their vehicles detailed by them. I also love the fact that Adam’s also provides how-to videos for all of their products so if you are new to doing the detailing yourself, like me, you are able to learn quickly.

    Check out the VRT and Tire Shine videos. I love these products too. They go on and you can literally wipe your hand across them after applying the product and nothing comes off onto your hand or cloth. It dries that quickly. I definitely understand how annoying product is that you apply and then it collects dust or it gets all over your vehicle when you drive it right after. With this product, it doesn’t do that which I absolutely love.

    Thanks, great to know. Yea, I hear so many good things about Marie over at Headstrong. Likely who I will go through when the time comes unless I can get the parts through various sources and save some bucks. I will ask them to match the prices first though. Worth a try. I would just prefer to have a reputable vendor and a real person I can go back to with questions or issues (if that ever happens) instead of going solo. Most of the time that is worth the couple hundred bucks you save piecing things from various sources. Especially for someone like me that is not an expert at any of this.

    By dressing your tires after you clean them, it maintains them so you are less likely to get cracks, blowouts, etc. the great thing about say Adam’s Tire Shine is you can apply it and if you would like it to be less Shine/glossy, you just keep rubbing it in and it goes to More a flat look. It’s up to your liking.

    PS. I’m not getting paid by Adam’s Polishing to promote their products. I just really like their products and think if anyone is interested, they should try them. It’s not up everyone’s alley and I totally understand. Just passing along my experience.

    Thanks. Hard telling what it is.

    But, consider this;

    Who/How installed?
    Have the same set up?
    How fast are you going when you hit the speed bump?
    Tires?

    I had a local shop and Toyota service set it up. The new suspension is great/money well spent!
    I'm breaking it in currently, but so far, it is consistent, tight and balanced.
    I'm running stock tires. I think they are Standard Load, or 8 ply.
    Reason: They are lighter, more ply-able and can be less harsh of a ride than an E load.
    I'll be fussing with the air pressures to see if I can optimize it for operating in a dynamic environment.

    Good luck!

    I had this for the first few days but it's gone now. Don't know if it was the springs settling or what. I'd give it a little bit and see if it goes away on it's own
