    I'm installing mine this weekend. For those that installed the lift themselves, were you able to re-use the steering arm hub seals or did you use new ones?

    Good luck stattonmw! It looks like a fun install.

    A few posts up you were asking about the taco lean. I'm going to be putting a 1/4" top plate spacer on the left front to help correct this when I install the lift this weekend. I measured mine yesterday (still stock) and the left front is 1/2" lower than the right front. My '05 was similar and I used a spacer to compensate for the lean (OME 3" lift with 886X springs).

    Perfect! ordered one with the lift just in case. Let me know how your install goes. I have looked at some directions and it doesnt look too bad.

    Sweet man!

    Are those bushwacker flares? If so how much more do they add/stick out over the stock ones?
    I been thinking of going that route. My wheels stick out now pre lift w/265/65/27. Im sure they will prob stick out a hair more when I get the RCD installed a move up to 295/70/17. They sling shit on the truck now, wouldn't mind cutting down on some of that if I could lol.

    What size tires are you guys running? I am looking at a 295/70 R18 which is about a 34.3x11.6 do you think I will have any issues with this lift?

    On my previous truck I had 275/70 R18 which is about 33x11 on a 3" rough country lift and had to do little trimming

    Installed mine over the weekend and got it aligned today. The most caster he could get is 2.2 per side. It seems very twitchy to me driving it. I definitely prefer the 3.7 caster I had on my previous truck (OME 885X w/TC UCA). Has anyone used different control arms with this kit to get more caster? I'm considering getting some LR arms to get the caster over 3.

    I know this was an old post, but here are my measurements:

    Stock (575 miles on truck, so I'm not sure if springs will settle more than they have)
    LF 20 1/4"
    RF 20 3/4"
    LR 21 3/4"
    RR 22"

    After RCD install:
    LF 26" (I used a 1/4" top plate spacer on this side for taco lean)
    RF 26"
    LR 25 3/4"
    RR 26"

    Love that truck! Your truck is actually the reason I went with an RCD lift. I saw pics you posted awhile back and knew that's exactly the look I was after.

    I am running a 255/85 r17 which comes up to about 34 by 10.5 but bfg says it's 33.3 by 10.5 but either way the truck rubbed all the time before the lift but now it has rubbed once and never again. If you choose the correct offset wheel you should be fine. I also lost a little tire rub clearance with the bushwhackers but I love the look

    The RCD kit comes with blocks for the rear. I'm def not crazy about those. I will def be going the same route with the Alcans in the near future. I'll be hitting you up sandjunkie to see what you ordered. Your truck looks exactly how I want mine to look.
