    Used it to pick up tires for the gx - 265/70/17s - not quite as big as the 285/70/17 on the Taco...but still a nice addition.
    Bilstein 5100's up front for a 2" lift, 1" spacers, no rubbing, makes it feel a bit more like a truck!

    What’s crazy is I remember using my torque wrench to tighten it down.. I think I need to get that sucker calibrated because something obviously is not right.

    I did mine for this summer, never changed (touched) spark plugs prior, and it was easy! So easy in fact, it gave me the courage to change the one in my snow blower!

    Looks great!!:thumbsup: what size tire are you running? I run a 275/70 r17 and feel like my tires are way to small, especially with my new lift:confused:

    Did you have to chop the cab mounts or trim? I rub some on my front inner fender now with the 275

    I definitely had to trim some fender down. I also need to chop the cab mount eventually. But it’s on the list lol. Daily driving is no problem what so ever.

    Just wrapped up putting a set of 884's with 5100's and some stock replacement UCA's on the front. Off to the alignment shop tomorrow morning. Took it for a quick test spin and all I can say is that it is much softer than the stock coil overs with 5100's set at .85. I have a steel bumper, so hoping it will settle in about the same height as before the steel bumper addition. Anyone want some stock SR5 coil overs with 200k on the springs and 150 0n the 5100's? Will also have some stock UCA's with 170k on them (could use ball joints). Going to be doing the rear 5100's probably Monday.

    Wow, my hands hurt!
