    I took my truck into a 4 wheel parts store to have them look at it n couldn’t figure it out they also refunded my money I had paid since they couldn’t figure it out. I think I will try taking the sway bar off n go for a drive if it’s still present then I will take it into a Toyota dealership n have to pay an arm and a leg.

    Do you have a floor jack? Jack the front up from the center and look around as the suspension droops.

    For Ford's, Chevy or jeep, yup. They know what they kinda know what they are doing. Toyota.... they have no fucking clue.

    Here’s a link to video if you don’t mind taking a look I’d gladly appreciate some feedback on the noise! https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=9lNpv2XU7HA

    It's hard to diagnose something like that over video but my opinion is still the uca hitting the coiled rear shocks topping out. That 3" spacer on a 3rd gen is really 1" to much lift. You should have marks on the coil by now if it's hitting.

    Ok thank you man appreciate it. So would new aftermarket UCA’s fix the problem if I were to figure that’s the problem?

    I'd start off by ditching the spacer lift and getting at minimum Bilstein 5100.

    you my friend are 100% right the UCA is hitting the coil. Will the bilstein5100 still clear a 285 70 17?

    Depends on your wheels, you're gonna loose 1" of lift with the 5100's but it'll be at the optimal lift height.

    thank you guys for the help! I’ll probably
    Hold on the shit spacer lift until I get more into off roading I don’t do much as it is just occasional dirt roads n little fishing trips with the wife. When I come up with some extra cash will definitely be getting the 5100’s. For now I guess I’ll take it easy over the harsh bumps.
