    That looks perfect for ride height!! I could have sworn I saw similar angles in the JD thread, so still no clue how yours initially came out so far off as a bolt on kit, but stoked you got it sorted!

    Strange premise tho. Seems like an instalander with no real need for LT. I would want it set up as loooow as possible and get the ground clearance from the tires. I’d be scared to flip that truck sitting so high with all the camping crap dude bolted on top. Wouldn’t handle well in the desert

    Is anyone looking for or needing a set of 2.75 RCLT RCV Axles? We were accidentally sent an extra set, or should I see the wrong axles? DM if interested Will be discounted. They will be sent back to RCV if there are no takers, but they have offered a deal to see if we can move since it will cost to send them back.

    I’ll have to get back to you on that info. It’s sitting on stands right now doing fluids and final checks. It’s decently low though.

    Never done it, but my understanding when I had a setup of tundra axles and planned on it is you cut down the lip on the inner cv cup that the boot is mounted on. Then replace with a 930 style boot

    make sure you get the oem tundra axles with the sliding rezeppa joint don’t use tripods they are all aftermarket I think? They got hard to find for a while, if you are going to be hard on it then rcvs are nice so you arnt breaking expensive cv axles, or atleast they have a warranty lmao

    TC example on where to cut
    https://www.chaosfab.com/PDF/97300.pdf

    for the boot just call kartek and tell them you need a boot for a modified tundra axle on 4runner/tacoma long travel. Something like this but idk if they are different

    Dang, was hoping it was more plug and play lol. What did you end up using for CVs?
