What's everyone waiting to install?

LED Pro headlights, mud guards and bed step and I think I am done.

 

2". Vibration is very light but it's there.

 

I’m still basically stock atm. I had some king 14” coils powder coated red, so that should be around 1” of lift in the front with the “stock” setting on my foxes. I basically just wanna level it. My UCA are jba because I got a good deal on a used set and they’re red

 

Damn, now I'm worried I'll have to do it with a westcott front lift and a icon rxt

 

I don’t “need” it right now. As far as I can tell, I’m just doing it preemptively since imma be balls deep in the front end already.

 

Just order it and do it at same time as lift so you don't gamble and lose like I did lol. The bushing and tools are about $150 and you're going to be right there anyway.

 

Going to install front/back Timbren active off-road bumpstops tomorrow. Wet Okole seat covers on order...

 

My eibach pro kit just arrived (assembled to make it easier). I just installed a spacer lift a month ago and it rides terrible so I need to install the eibach asap.

 

I did the preemptive bushing install as well. Partly why I planned out for 3 days. The tools I fabricated made the job so easy though... make sure you have the tools so you don't have to mess around. Also... when I did it, I put the right side on a jack stand, removed the wheel, put the jack under the end of the control arm, jacked it up to remove the jack stand, then dropped the jack down to the point the rotor was just off the ground. This way I had nothing for leakage from the diff.

 

You will be happy with the Eibach suspension. I am very impressed with my Stage 2 kit. It was a great improvement over the Sport suspension.

 

For the initiated, make the passengers side lower than the drivers so u don’t lose oil when you pull the drivers side CV. Good tip, I would’ve forgot, honestly.

 

I’ve got a u bolt flip kit with Timbren rear bump stops I need to install that I have had for over a year. I just need to sack up and do it. Also have a HAM antenna I need to put up but haven’t decided on where. Under the hood electrical clean up as well, just need a weekend to shorten harnesses and reconnect

 

I had the Icon 1.5 AAL installed a few months ago, but I do not like the level look and when I put stuff in the bed, the truck sags and I almost puke every time I see it. So, I’m looking at swapping for the Icon RXT with option 2. Only concern is that vibe issue some people have. With my current lift set up, my truck drives flawlessly. Not sure if I want to mess with it.. I do want a rake at all times tho.

also hoping to secure some bamf sliders, but I can’t deal with these lead times.

 

How much lift have you got in the front? I will be doing a 2" lift in the front and was going to use the Icon 1.5 AAL instead of the 1" block that came with the kit but read some reviews where people complained the Icon AAL start sagging after a month or two.

 

I have blistein 6112 set at the 6/5 notch giving me 2” lift in the front. I have the icon progressive 1.5 AAL (overloads springs removed) and my leafs are damn near flat with an empty bed. I think OEM leafs are just trash. if you do go with the icon AAL, keep your overloads in.

Here’s a pic of how my truck sits:

Nice truck! It does sag a little in the back. Are you going to put the overloads back in? I'm getting a Softopper too, how do you like it?

 

Thanks! I’m probably going to go for a full leaf pack instead. Icon rxt or some deavers. As for the softopper, absolutely love it! being able to collapse it and load up a motorcycle or anything tall in the back is awesome. I love the look too.

 

Best functional "mod" I've done has been the Rav4 radio knobs. I can actually turn the knobs now without pressing every button around them. Those and the TRD Pro shift knob install are about the extent of my mechanical abilities lol. Yea, I'm a noob, but I know my limits and when to write a check to someone that knows what their doing. Figure its cheaper than having to pay them to undo my screwups lol.

 

Bendix upper turret for the coming fuel wars.

 

My current “waiting for time (and warmer weather) list”:

ECGS bushing
Core shifter
Cab mount chop (don’t have an air dryer on my compressor so I DO NOT plasma cut in humid air so I’m stuck waiting on really good weather)
Rear steel bumper DIY (waiting for the same reason as above) which will include chopping the bed.

Also at some point I’m gonna try to DIY the tint on my new solid rear glass, mostly as a learning experience, cause the appt is >10wks out still and it’s no more $$ to take old tint off incase it turns out I suck at tint lol.
