    No, you're JBA's are stock length while LT is not. You're better off just keeping it how it is and getting a fancy mid-travel shock such as King or ADS

    But if you do decide to go LT lemme know how much you’re gonna sell your JBAs for.
    I have alcans, if you know exactly what you want and get them ordered that way I bet they’ll ride a lot smooth than mine.

    That said, I love the amount of weight min hold when I need it.

    I think +200 and 3” lift whatever that means to them.


    With 1300ish pounds it sat about level. I don’t have any empty vs loaded pics that are worth anything.

    I’d say I’m probably 1.5” worth of rake

    I can achieve #stancenation on my PreRunner for free. I just have to wait until one of the lower ball joints break.

    My steering wheel seems to be more and more misaligned, is that something I can fix on my own?

    In the unlikely event it's only your toe that's going out of alignment and not your caster and camber, the toe adjustment (that involves the steering) is pretty straightforward.

    Should I call up the alignment shop that I used after my lift install? Was done at the beginning of May - truck's only been offroad twice since, but I didn't air down. Maybe I knocked it out of alignment somehow
