    Almost... My 33's have the slightest rub when stuffed and at almost full lock. SPC's set at Position E and LCA cams set to full forward caster. But there's Lot's of other variables that go into it also. Like tire width, wheel offset, what day the truck was assembled on....

    Can confirm on mine, except for 75% turned to the right while backing off an incline.

    That's also the side with the damaged lca so.... :notsure:

    Mine wasn't as bad but dammit I hate the engine oil fill cap.
    Dropped the sucker for a 2nd time. Didn't hit the skid plate this time though. Nope, that would've been to easy.
    Got stuck at the bottom of the cooling fan. Of course at that point I had already re-installed the skid plate and had to re-do it to get the damn cap. My first oil change since I bought it.
    Had the dealer do the first one so I could get a free list of to-do's Got all the fun stuff at 120,000 up next. But me and the old man enjoyed it.

    Yeah I'm curious about those too (especially now that a pair of LCAs is in my not so distant future).

    Might be awhile before they're released though. They're in the testing stages.

    They're a good design but keep in mind they use Moog ball joints, which are known to be the cheapest of the cheap and are made in cheap places in the world

    Yeah, I know and that sucks. I'm hoping they do something else for ball joints before production.

    I think you guys are right. The post seems to have been deleted, and I can't tag @pcastillo215.

    Either a scammer or maybe just sensitive. :notsure:

    I put the 2lo conversion in my 2nd gen. It is great for putting boats in, etc where I want Lo but not the steering issues that our trucks have on pavement. Haven't used it in the dirt yet...

    Not a Toyota.
    It’s 4WD, 5spd manual, and right hand drive!
    I know it runs. It’s a daily driver.

    I have shelved my Colorado trip this summer... My spring break blast in Arkansas was $1200 in fuel. Can't imagine what two weeks plus in the mountains would cost. Spend more time at the lake house: biking, fishing, sailing and skiing.
