    I have the 3 inch lift in front and 2 inch in the back = (spacers and blocks) on my 07 4 dr trd off road. i have the take off shudder it was pretty harsh, so i just grabbed 2 galvanized washers which togeather were about quarter inch thick and dropped my CB with that. seems that it helped the harshness of the take off, but the shudder is still there just maybe a little less...almost feels like a cleaner shudder i guess not as vibratey for lack of better word.

    who thinks i should drop the bearing further or has opinions on what to do next?

    be pretty awesome if the shudder wasnt there at all

    update...i threw in an extra washer and it made the shudder even less, i can take off slowly without getting the shudder, if i got fast or just above normal speed i can still feel it but its not as bad as it was.

    maybe shims will fix the rest of it??
