    Ok, lift is installed but i just realized my wheels have 5" backspacing and not the 4.5" required with this kit. I haven't mounted my tires yet so i cant try them on for fitment. Does anyone know if an 18" wheel with 5" backspacing will work? Just wondering if a larger rim makes any difference. Thanks.

    Wheel is: 18x9 bfd with 0 offset
    Tires : 305x60/18(33x12.50x18)

    I think you are going to rub on the control arm and inner fender lining with that wheel and tire combo.

    I just mounted one set and tried it on the front passenger side. The tire clears the steering nuckle by .50 inch. I'm mounting the rest and putting them on the truck tomorrow. You are probably right, the tire looks close to the inner wheel liner but the lower control arm clears at full clock left and right.

    If you're asking me, I love it! Going in for alignment tomorrow then I can take her for a true test run.

    I read through the thread, if I missed this being asked, sorry...
    Curious if anyone is running this lift with winch or other added weight on the front end? I know it reuses stock springs, curious if new shocks make much/any difference. If not and there is sagging, could one replace the coils with OME, or with new c/o?

    I just ordered the RCD lift and I cant wait!!!! The guy that helped me said that the coils can be changed anytime with OME or a Coilover. For now I want to stick with the factory ride.

    I'm not a fan of the RCD lift but in Hawaii, its a must. This truck looks beast with those rims and tire. Nice Hawaii 5-0 Stance my friend. You're getting mad hawaiian HULA tail with that truck! :eek:

    Now black out the front end more and it would be even more killer.

    I really really want this lift...but just not sure how I feel about the DB for an extra 1.5lift. I saw one in person for the first time on a black taco...I pooped a little.
