    That looks bad ass! I used to ride no sway bar on my transam. It makes steering and changing lanes very sloppy. like you are driving an old caddy. Not sure how a high center of gravity truck with 35s would drive without one.

    I am hoping installing it right will get rid of the sway bar rubbing at the same time

    It looks good stephen, love the color and the snugtop look.
    That's odd how the wheels are 5" backspace especially with 35's, i think if you had some like 4" backspace or wheel spacers you wouldn't have the swaybar rub problem.

    I am hoping that having the sway bar correctly installed will get rid of the rub.
    If not I'll have to consider removing the sway bar or adding spacers? not clue what's best.

    FYI the sway bar on this truck is on backwards and anyone that thinks it's right does not know shit about shit!



    To the OP IMO sounds like you took your truck somewhere that does not know shit and they are blowing smoke up your ass! There is not difference from stage 1 to 2 in parts other then coil overs and different rear shocks! Sounds to me that they fucked something up and are freaking out trying to fund out what they did! On the Procomp lift if they cut it wrong on the Drop bracket and installed is wrong that is why the truck feels out of control! If I were you I would go Down on Monday and tell them that you want your truck taken to the Toyota dealer for a full look over most Toyota dealer have tech that go to cirt classes for Procomp and they can find the problem! That is why I took my to Toyota they had it for 2 days did it right and have not had one problem since! Sorry if I am coming off wrong but I just hate when shops do shit they think they can do and have people's truck for way to long!

    I've been through your pics after your first response but didn't see any. you got a bunch of pics in there :D
    so then I guess my sway bar is probably mounted right and I'm back to square one.

    and thanks for going out taking some shots!!

    Uploading now mine looks the same as far as the parts install! Like I said i am not for sure but if they cut and installed the drop bracket wrong the truck will track wrong and will I think feel like it is out of control:eek: the bad part about them doing that wrong is it's a hard fix not trying to scare you but they will be spending a lot making your truck right:(

    Comp is starting I am on the iPad right now:)
