    StockerLocker18, did you put up a video of the lift install yet? And, any issues from the drivers side diff needle bearing making noise after the lift? I’ve had to install the bushing from EC Gear on my last 2 Tacos after lifting them.

    What's the difference like offroad without the sway bar? I've been thinking of taking mine off buy I do a lot of curvy highway driving with wildlife encounters, so am hesitant.

    It winds up being equivalent to a 3” lift when comparing the 3rd gen Pro to a 2nd gen Tacoma so maybe that’s where that number is coming from. 427ap is the correct kit #.

    Has anyone measured the actual height difference before and after installing that lift kit? Does it end up lifting the front 1.5" or 2"?

    Yeah that's perfect. Ground to fender using the center of the wheel/hub as a guide. That way you'll know for sure. I'd do all 4 corners too if I were you.
