    Thank you sir. I’m definitely happy with their kit. Rides smooth both on and off road. Nice increase in travel but also requires some “trimming” haha.

    Can anyone please tell me how much your tires measured once they are installed and with the weight of the vehicle?
    Even better if the wheels are 17x 8.5 -12 mm offset

    Just the CMC and heat gun molding the plastics in both front wheelwells only on the front sides. i only rubbed in that area prior to the molding of the plastics, but since doing so i haven’t rubbed again yet.

    I did have to do the needle bearing with my 2” lift. Dumb but easy.

    I’m moving to this tire size the next time Toyota does a tire sale. Have some 17x8.5 0 offsets to throw them on. I already did a CMC to get ahead of it and I think ill just see what happens after I get home. I can always change the UCAs later if needed.

    Thanks for the info!

    Why did you not do the lower control arm mount kit, the double sheer heimed tie rod end setup? Did you at least do the UCA double sheer brackets?

    3" Ready Lift w/ Bilstein coilovers up front. 2" block, add a leaf in back. Toyo Open Country AT3s 275/75/17 Method 17x8.5 Titanium Grid wheels 0 offset
    Brand new to the forum but not Tacos. I e had 5 Tacos (2 gen 1s, 2 gen 2s, 1 gen 3, 1 Tundra (gen 1), and 2 4Runners (1 gen 4, 1 gen 5). I've never had a lifted truck until now. This thread helped me so much in picking out what I wanted. Thank all of you for that. I went w/ Toyo Open Country AT3s 285/75/17 on Method Titanium Grid wheels 17x8.5 w/ 0 offset. All of that under a 3" Ready Lift w/ Bilstein coilovers up front and a 2" block and add a leaf in back. I'm actually going to take the blocks out completely or replace with 1" blocks as the rear is just sitting too high for my taste. Only other thing I would possibly change is going with a little offset in the wheels. Mine are almost completely tucked in. Anyway thank all of you for sharing. Maybe I can return the favor for someone else.

    I will add that the shop did trim minimally but there was no wholesale cutting of any kind and no rubbing. No CMC and no new UCAs.

    Thanks man. I'm 41 so it's about 21 or 22 years in the making. I've always wanted to. Finally took the plunge.
