    Stock front height on the TRD OR is most commonly 21” center of hub. That puts you at 2.25” which is the max I would want to go. 2” seems to be the sweet spot. This is after having 3 different suspension setups on my truck for highway and desert trails/forest roads...the advertised lift is just an approximate based on the specific vehicles tested. 3” in lift is higher than the rear and would be in a prerunner config. Sounds like you are sittin’ pretty good.

    At full droop in the front with ADS extended coilovers my SPC UCAs don’t touch the coils. That’s with 1.5” lift (14” 700lb coils, 1” preload, 22.5” front height)

    Anyone want a sticker? :poke: This is NOT my creation. It's from a user on here and I believe there's a minimum qty that I need to buy for him to consider printing it.

    It's perfect for instigating fights.

    I need to redo the stickers on my RR. They aren’t centered and it triggers me every time I look at them.

    Tbh. The uniball is stronger, but I'd install the JBA. Ball joint is better resistant to weather, better articulation, and is easily replaceable. I've loved my JBAs.
