    Is there going to be uneccessary wear and tear because the sway bar is removed?

    I haven't got the alignment yet but the truck travels great. The toe is a little off but other than that it's great!

    And for those asking the 5100's are at 0 but I turned the drivers side up a little to eliminate the taco lean...

    There will be no wear and tear, just a smoother ride and more travel, how do you like those guard dogs?

    I read in a thread that it gave slightly more travel , I dont know if its true, but the truck is certainly better offroad.

    I absolutely love the guard dog m/t's...
    And there isn't a clip like yours mine are threaded up. I just turned it about half an inch up to compensate for the lean.

    I'm debating getting lines for rear...you need them for 3" all pros? Theres the GB lines $100 for 4...why I'm wondering about fronts if worth replacing...tips on wrenching fronts? Read issues with cross threading before...

    Like the look NFS...how's the hop gettin in? Think I got to get sliders jus so my pops could get in get in lol..

    No they are the toytec setup that csjumper Chris had on his truck. The collar on the bottom takes a spanner wrench and you just turn it...

    I have been looking at several other spindle lifts for my 2011 prerunner. I know all of them push the wheels further out (due to the design), usually about 3/4 inch.

    Can anyone with the maxtrac spindles (4 inch) tell me how much it pushed out your front wheels?

    For me, 1 inch, I have 1.25 spidertraxx in the rear and it matches good.

    At least 3/4" cant say for sure though. I am still running wheel spacers up front due to the backspacing on the stock rims.

    You needed spacers for stock wheels AFTER the spindle install?
    I would have guessed you would be fine without the spacers after the spindle install.....

    You have to have a minimum of 4.5 backspacing and the stock rims dont have it. So you will knock the weights off the inside of the rim.
