PICS of my OME complete lift

Today I installed my OME complete kit from toytec ( ) with the help of my friend who works in an auto shop. Everything went smoothly and it took us about 3 1/2 hours for everything. Im very happy with the outcome so far. Thanks to Chris4x4 for the advice and Neubs for the discount. What do you guys think?

Stock, the day i bought her


How she sits now

 

Awesome truck and lift. Like the wheels!

 

Looks good! Did you paint or powder coat the stockers?

 

Looks awesome! That's the setup I plan on installing on my tacoma!

 

What did you use to paint your wheels? After seeing your truck I've decided to rotate the black letters in and paint my wheels... Looks great.

 

Nice! I'm also wondering if you painted or powdercoated the stockers.

 

Thanks guys, I painted them with Rustoleum Hammer finish black spray paint, and i primed it with black rustoleum primer.

 

I have been waiting for your report.
You put the top plate spacer for the full 3" lift, did you measure before and after?

Your still using factory UCA, Did you and if so how is the alignment?

All you added in the rear was the AAL, did you use stock U bolts do you have TSB spring pack?

What size tires do you have on those stock wheels, do they rub at all?

Did you use the front dif drop or read carrier bearing drop?

I think the stance of your truck is very nice, I am not sure if I want the full 3" at first, depends on the alignment.

 

Truck looks bad ass man good job!

 

Unfortunately I didnt measure before but ill post the new measurements in the next day or so if you'd like.

I havent got an alignment yet, ill probably do it next week, but for the 10 or so miles ive driven so far it doesnt even seem any different.

I do not have the TSB and yes, the stock U bolts were re used. I asked toytec about this and they said they would be fine and i did not need longer ones.

I did buy the diff drop kit but i havent installed it yet and i may not, i havent decided yet.

 

o, the tires are bfg all terrains 265/75/16 and they do not rub at all.

 

Definitely get those fronts tinted! Would help with the overall look!

 

Yea I would like an update on the alignment and the hight measurement when you get a chance.

The AAL with stock spring is good to hear, I plan on sticking with the factory spring pack also.

The factory tire were 265/70/16 (correct?) and you went with 265/75/16, so just a little larger right? They seam a little taller, but not so much wider.

I really like your set up, just what I am trying to achieve.

 

Absolutely sick.

 

You may have convinced several people (including myself) to paint their wheels.

Looks good.

 

looks great.painting the wheels makes a HUGE differance imo.

 

The major question is how does it ride? Any wandering at all on the highway? Definitely get that alignment as the toe will be out of wack. I have been looking at the same lift myself and yours looks great.

 

Looks great!
