    So my friend just installed his Ultimate on his DC while i have had a Complete installed on my DC since Turkey Day Last year. Anyways, we have the trucks next to each other and his truck is sitting much higher in the front than mine. He has the front set to factory settings running 285/75/16 and im running 285/70/17.

    Any ideas why his tall sits so much taller than mine when they are both 3" lifts?

    How much preload is dialed in on each lift??
    What engine/trans/drive train/extra stuff is in each??
    How has yours been used over the past year??

    Yours has settled. His will as well in a week or so. Relax.

    Also, IIRC the Toytec ultimate has adjustable billies up front right? Are they set identically?

    This is only picture i have. It was taken with camera phone so its not best angle but still noticeable in the picture.

    My truck 09 db/lb. v6 auto trd sport. I have a stereo that i just installed last month but that weight is in the rear so i dont see it effecting this issue.


    His truck 10 db/sb. v6 man trd offroad.

    Is either 4x4??
    And when you say the weight from your stereo is in the rear...You mean the subs behind the seat or did you build something into your bed?

    Did you measure a difference or are you eyeballing it? I still say its because his suspension hasn't settled yet.

    They are both 4x4. And yes, stereo is behind back seat.

    That is still 100 lbs + that has to be held up by springs...My guess is yours has settled since it was installed.

    Pretty close and you can see the difference in the fender wells too

    I did- I found the link for the ultimate and is the complete if the 5100's with the Eibach springs...Then where your kit is set and where his is set may be part of it too.
