    Well , all the components in the front end will settle into their " neutral " position in the first day/s after install , this isn't the coils sagging as much as everything seating itself

    Oh, okay. I was thinking that too. Do you think they have settled all the way by now?

    I haven't really flexed it much, but have driven it everyday since.

    Where is the rub occuring ?
    What is your wheel backspacing ?
    Are you running stock UCA's ?
    What are your alignment #'s ?

    The front plastic part of the fender. (It's barely rubbing and only in reverse with wheel turned all the way.)
    Wheels came on the truck so idk the exact backspacing.
    Yes, stock UCAs.
    The Toyota garage said they couldn't get my alignment perfect, but is close to being perfect.

    Not too suprising that you are rubbing , it's pretty normal and is more to do with the 285's than the suspension settlement

    Alright. I mean, it's not bad rubbing. Like I said in an earlier post, sandpaper could probably fix it. I just hope the suspension is done settling. I love the stance as is and don't want the front any lower.
    I'm off for tonight.

    How far down will it settle? 1/4" or so?

    I'm going to try to get a job while doing college next fall. Probably doing online college. I'm wanting to build a pit bike so I will need $ too. About 2500 of them. Lol
