    Well leveled it out completely with 1" blocks in the back for now, and as oddly as it may seem, it suddenly turned into a TRD, just came right up through the existing clear coat!haha 57_5061ae3cdf0181ec218c4623355d443957adbf61.jpg

    no, pretty easy, make sure you use an impact on the centering pins or else it will just spin.

    I think it's just the way it looks in the picture, I don't think I do..

    What exactly is "bro lean" ? is it similar to rake? does it mean the back sits higher or vice versa? Sorry, still trying to figure out all the weird terminology being thrown around TW so I know how to describe any conditions I run into in the future. Thanks.

    .
    It's where the front sits noticeably higher than the rear, a telltale sign that you are observing the sub-genus of Homo sapiens known as Bromius Stupidus, other markings to this sub genus include rear-facing caps, giant Rockstar or Monster stickers, silly block, body and spacer lifts, loud annoying music. This sub genus's habitat is not usually found off-road and is usually limited to suburbs and shopping malls. Though they are known to be found in Toyotas they are most often found in giant Fords, Chevys and Dodges.

    Lol, in the second pictures it looked too close for me to tell a difference.

    AKA I'm going to get the 5100s up front, set to 1.75, and do no more.. unless it's more apparent than yours was.

    Got 265/75/16s installed today. Had them install sticky weights... derping wheels in the next few days :) Wanted duratracs but the silent armors had a $160 mail in rebate when I used my sears card.. duratracs were $120.. (or $60 without sears card). Also had $50 discount when ordering online, so $210 in savings is a-ok with me. Thanks OP for this thread, glad you updated with how it panned out.
