    I just wouldn't want it to be nose high and that worries me a little if the rear is stock. All the weight you added isn't hanging off the front of the car, so it probably isn't as much of a factor as you think.

    It might be a good idea to flip through this thread and find a pic of a rig with similar mods before you install.

    FWIW I drove around for a little over a month on the second clip with no weight on the front and if felt just fine. Recently added about 150# in bumper and winch, honestly doesn't really feel any different.

    Ryan, I have my 2019 TRD off road set on 2nd notch with JBA upper control arms. The truck rides fairly rough. The steering wheel has a lot of movement from uneven places on the road. Is this normal or is something not right?

    No I don’t. It’s almost time for my first oil change so I’m going to have it aligned at the dealership and I can post numbers then.

    -What tires do you have?
    -Are they E-Rated Tires? (if so this is likely much of the issue)
    -What wheels are you on? If you are on aftermarket wheels that have a great deal of -negative offset, this could also contribute to symptoms you are describing.

    Also, if you havent had an alignment yet, your upper control arms have added caster (I think JBA's add like 3..?) while the alignment cams are still wherever your initial factory-alignment spec positions are.
    What you describe above sounds like "bump-steer", which is commonly the byproduct of wheels that have a great deal of negative offset.. could also be induced by the alignment or any combination of tho too...

    Get it aligned. I'm sure it will cure the issue.

    I’m running on the bottom clip but have the jba high caster UCA’s and had it aligned, rides smooth. Has 4 degrees of caster right now and the turn in is a lot more sensitive so might remove some caster. But otherwise rides smooth

    So what's up with all the lift / suspension mods ? Is everyone on these forums like a mechanic or something. I feel kind of out of place like how do people know how to do all this? Like this is just a common thing that everyday people do? I couldn't imagine even attempting projects like this, much less having all the tools and equipment.

    And doesn't it void the warranty?

    No it doesn't void the warranty and it's fairly simple but not easy. Watch a couple YouTube videos and you can install yours if you really wanted to.

    Finally got around to installing mine. Netted about 2" in the rear and 3" up front with the front still sitting about 1/3" lower. Used wheelers 2" AAL plus the drivers side shim. Stock tires and wheels. Very happy with the look, still need and alignment so it'll probably settle some.
