    PROBLEM SOLVED ON PAGE 2

    the nuts that hold these things on are pretty deep so there are quite a few threads biting in, but are the studs supposed to be this recessed in the spacers?
    help asap please. truck is on jackstands now. (this is with them torqued to 85ftlbs)

    EDIT: NVM read all of your first post.

    Something isnt right. Are you sure you are using the right nuts? you should have way more thread protrusion than that.

    Are the nuts hard against the inside of the spacer? or can the spacer move?

    I'm not sure what is wrong with yours but here is a picture of them installed on my 09 taco for reference. The nut threaded on all the way until they were flush with the end of the stud.

    I ran into the same problem with my 2010 reg cab. I ended up replacing all the studs. To me they aren't grabbing by enough to be comfortable going down the highway.

    Yup, those look like the right conical nuts. Either the spacers aren't the right ones, the machining isn't deep enough, or your studs are too short.
