    Those spacers are to prevent the turd gen wheels from rubbing the frame right? I tried spacers with them (1.25 and 1.75) but the rubbing got worse.

    The zip ties is because you're running a smaller battery than what the truck calls for stock, right? I remember seeing your battery and it was tiny.

    We can all share one portion of Tyler's address. That way no one single person is to blame. :rofl::rofl::rofl::devil::devil::sandwich:

    No, they're to make the tires not look so retarded lol.

    Heres some pics to give you an idea
    Here's the truck with the front lifted and a wheel spacer. The rear is stock.

    Here's one without spacers
    20180908_141122.jpg
    See how sucked in they were? They didn't rub at all though. Just looked dumb.

    And here's lifted with spacers

    it's the same size as the Optima yellow top I was running before, but I still have the stock battery tie down which doesn't work so well with ones that size

    It's less Tacoma and more mod
    That's why I got the alum bracket, can shake the truck around by it if you wanted to now

    My OEM bracket never really held my battery all that great but it still held it okay, if you remember mine was missing the front bolt entirely and that's why it tried to weld itself to my power steering high pressure hose.
