    Thanks man. I kept the spring rate at 600 pounds but went to a 14 inch spring. 2.5 inch fox. I went to a 50 pound compression stack and increased the floater stack height from .0012 to .0022. It rides really nice now. I might up the rebound next time to help with body roll, witch is negligible on the highway.

    Wow, I got an alignment and the world has changed. Talked to the tech about the LCA and all the good info here to move the tire forward. Such a big difference. Thank you for the awesome info here

    Damn that is a big difference. Thinking about trying out some 35x10.5’s myself.

    Do it. I know you have the patience to deal with it. It’s possible with a lot of patience.

    Gonna have to read up some more. Expecting remaining parts for shock relocation soon. Would like to keep my current trd sema wheels and run the 35x10.5’s. Just curious how that going to affect the tire rubbing the shock. I know the width would be a little more narrow then my 285/70/17 currently on the truck

    Yea those are what I’m looking at. Would be nice for more clearance, the tires a little more narrow then my current. But I also like having discount tires replacement insurance. They don’t sell that brand tire.

    @JoeCOVA, are you running SPC UCA's? No rubbing on full turn? I know we have similar offsets, I am just barely rubbing on the JBA UCAs at full turn. But I almost think I can grind a bit and get away with it.Screen Shot 2020-07-19 at 12.44.44 PM.jpg

    Correct on both. Running SPC no rubbing on the UCA. Should be pretty easy to take those down a bit.

    Damn I got to get done exactly what you did but my cam bolts are seized and I’ve been lazy to replace them so my caster is only 2.4 degrees right now. I only rub when I’m at full lock, and I mean FULL it won’t rub if it stop just before (that includes offroad)

    I plan on getting a set eventually, I also need some gussets aswell. And some new poly bushings since mine are on thier way out.

    There's also these by a different company.

    I’m assuming they fit the taco? I’d be interested in these. They’re cheaper than poly performance and look beefy.

    Not the relocation kit. That was installed by FabZone in San Diego. I did the trimming of the fenders. Thank you!

    So there's alot of misleading information on here about high caster i feel like. So this is my understanding correct me if I'm wrong. U want to max out the bottom adjustments moving the knuckles forward (higher caster). Then u want to fine tune your alignment by moving your SPC balljoint forward (lower caster) and end up about 2 or 3 degrees?

    Yes, you want to max out the bottom as you said and fine tune the caster with the SPC to 2-3 degrees. I’ve seen plenty of people go up to 5 degrees but if you can eliminate rubbing with lower caster that may be more preferable to ease the angles on the UCA joint.
    I have JBA UCA which are set caster at +3. I’m now at +4.8 on the driver side and +4.3 on passenger side.

    I think eventually I’ll swap to SPC get the caster down and have a more favorable angle on the UCA ball joint.
