    Thanks!

    I've seen video on this...need jacks to hold up the axle/differential to insert in between leafs.

    More questions to ask the dealership...right now, the shop is super busy.

    I just want to get this all in one swoop to include alignment...so I don't have to piece-meal this project.

    Dealership should not have to mess with the TSS since it is a Shock Lift Kit only but I will confirm.

    Like I said, I'm in no hurry to get this done.

    This and that
    dont Let them calibrate the tss if they tell you it needs it. That’s bullshit. One of my 4 grilled needed to be calibrated, I drove a couple hundred miles and it calibrated its self just fine.

    The block is the easiest part. I also added a “heritage” grille before the lift and neither time did it affect my radar sensor, it reset after a few miles with the new grille, I even covered the sensor and didn’t use a high dollar “garnish”. The only issue was the dragon once.

    I bought the Garnish for like $45 when I bought the grill from EmpyreOffRoad--it is starting to discolor from sunlight. (Not in this photo)

    Still looks good when washed.

    I remember seeing a post about the spare rubbing on the frame when stored and a few folks put a piece of rubber over the spare then cranked it back up to store it. This is what I did.

    315s surprisingly don’t rub at all after BMR and some extra cutting. My old 295s rubbed when I just had a BMC, the relocation really does a lot for fitting big tires.

    Learned that you CAN lock yourself out of the Taco if u leave ur fob in the center console, windows up and u change the fob battery in the spare fob and test it to make sure it works by unknowingly hitting lock vs unlock and then wife drives off to work before u with the spare fob in her purse (u know, in case u get locked out at an inconvenient time) and you grab the door handle to get in the Taco and the "oh shit " moment hits u! Damn- Locked out! Lesson learned. I guess I gotta stash the tailgate spare key somewhere in the garage.

    Anyone see these bad boys? I haven't been able to find a set of tail lights that I like, and these definitely finally seem to fit the bill.

    Heard atrocious things about AlphaRex though. Claims a 2 year warranty though

    I would suggest morimotos over those. Not much more $ and 5yr warranty. And their (the Retrofit source) customer service is awesome.
