    Dirt king and Kartek both have spacers that work. The lowers aren’t tabbed for a 1/2” bolt?

    The holes could be drilled right and just have a heavy powder coat on it. I had to run a 1/2" bit back through the tabs on my TC arms. They were drilled correctly, but the powder coat was substantial enough to not allow the bolt through.

    So I have most of the LT installed need to finish up installing a brake rotor, caliper and brake line on the driver side. Overall, it's a pretty good kit. The only downside is hit cover that I'm having right now. Is that the tie rod extensions that are included with the kit or not the right ones? They are average highs to fit a Tacoma which is a 15 mm thread which also fits the '03 to 09 4Runners and the ones that came with the kit or a 16 mm so they will not fit. I emailed him and it Doesn't seem like he's going to do anything about it. His reply back was all he knows is that it's advertised for Tacoma and what's on the ad. So needless to say I had to fork out more money to get the right extensions that are needed

    Interesting, Mine fit so not sure what would be going on. Unless the 16 plus taco have a different size. They sent you that kit... Sorry that sucks. Id offer to send you mine but im keeping one extension as a spare in case something goes horribly wrong with my one piece lol.

    Nice .

    From what I've heard from other people is that they haven't had any issues with them so that's good .

    So after a few more emails to depo racing ( Tim ) still not going to to do anything about the Tyron extensions. Told him either send me the right ones and I will send the wrong ones back to you or at least refund me $40. right now You can find them on sale for 28 a piece. Just send me $40 and we'll call it square and that's not happening neither so now I'm stuck with tie rod extensions that I cannot use period :facepalm: . And also because of this my vehicle is going to be down for at least another week. The other tie rod that I ordered from prg won't be here till next week sometime. So now I've been out of a vehicle when this is done and over with probably 2 weeks

    Wouldn't expect much out of depot, have you seen their website lol. If you were on the west coast Id say just order anything you need for the kit from Allpro/TG, being in San Diego I get deliveries from them next day. Again unless my opinion can be debunked I think the Depot and Allpro kits are coming from the same mfg in China/Taiwan haha

    I'm pretty sure you are correct as far as where both companies are getting their stuff. Just one pence of black. The other one paints it gray there you go
