    Got around to putting on my new lift yesterday (11/10). I replaced the hockey puck lift with 5100's set at .85, Eibach coils, 1/2 Toytec top plate spacers, and LR UCA's. I love the new ride and it handles so much better with the new UCA's!

    Out with the old

    And in with the new!

    Thanks for the great picture, saved me from crawling under.

    Ok, then looks like no matter what, chains on the front would have been a NoNo.

    I am working on my glove box and console organizer now, and think I will call it for the winter.

    Oh yes, maybe one more mod, the 886 backup light improvement, that looks like small change and will help when I back up on those ooops trails in the night.

    Added two more Drings in the bed of my truck. Makes six total now. When reinstalling the bolts I applied grease on the threads. If I have to remove them years down the road hopefully the grease will make removing them easier.

    I used the green and white in the heater/AC harness. Don't have a pic, but did it just like the wired version instructions here.
