    I bet it has to do with the positioning of the gear ring.

    ...It was fun/expensive/made me want to punch babies. If its not your daily that should make it less painful though.

    I was gifted this today at work... a 20 year old game jersey signed by Montana as a personal gift from my boss. Montana is a customer of mine and never has signed anything for me, he always tells me - Next Time

    if you wanna just fix the rake and drive it on the street a leveling kit or spacers will do the job, the ride will be the same.

    Debadged, took off front mud flaps, prevent tailgate theft mod, Magnaflow 18" muffler, Bilstein 5100s front and rear w/ front @1.75, wet okoles, plasi dipped front emblem, weathertechs, scangauge, toolbox, Bed pocket lights, BHLM, T1 eyelids, BAMF sliders, Bruteforce Fab rear bumper
    Same options as tacomas as far as I know...bigger spacer lift will be your cheapest, then probably 5100s, next I'd say OME coils (this sounds like the best option for you), then you have your nicer/expensive coil overs such as icon, fox, etc

    It Was The Coupler timing, Called Up engo, Dude Was Super Helpful And Knew Exactly What I Was Talking About. He Sent Me A Drawing And offered To Walk Me Through It But It Was simple:( So Much Wasted Time Grrrrr. Makes Me Happy To Be Running One Of Their winches If That's Their CS.

    And A Big Thanks To You for The Suggestions!

    I'm Down, I Would Love To Do A Weekend Trip To Lassen, Or Elsewhere.

    I Would Suggest Either OME or bilstein At Least, At Most A Brand New Set Of coilovers, Pick Your Color. What I Did Was Buy A Set Of Used Sway aways And Rebuilt them.
