    Perfect thanks to both (and wow @Vegasstunts that jump photo is rad!). This is exactly why I was asking and 100% what I expected to find. This gives me confidence to proceed and dump my badly sagging stock leaf pack without causing too much unforseen trouble.

    As long as I can rock my 6112s until the Money Fairy delivers a briefcase of cash I'll just drive boring for a while. Figure I'll weld on limit straps and cam tab reinforcements same time as I do the rest of my upgrades.

    Thanks again! Still curious if anyone has input on the axle shimming. I've read a crapton of threads and this doesn't come up as much as I would expect it to for Tacos (at least in comparison to Chevys/Fords). Makes me feel like I'm missing some secret answer, just trying not to screw over my future self.

    All of them.
    My rear is shimmed. I don't remember what degree I went with but it's 100% perfect

    I'm on Deaver Stage 1's and didn't need any shims. Have an ARB carrier drop and no vibrations at all.

    On the Icon 3 leaf aal I fought with vibes and did a ton of measuring and back and forth trying to make it go away and got it livable. Then when I did the deavers I put them on and have had 0 vibes since day 1 so I haven't touched them or measured to see what the angles are.

    Superbumps with a 3/8s spacer. Still smashes the top of the fender well when I jump it.

    JDFab inner fenders give you all the clearance you’ll ever need.

    I kept telling my buddy riding with me that I just needed to go faster, he didn't like that :rofl: Front definitely needs way stiffer compression, rear does pretty damn well/out does the front end.

    What’s your setup? Looks like a shackle flip on a relocation in the rear. What are you running up front?
