    Crazy diff lol, I was shocked at the how huge it looks, love it.

    Tires are Nitto Trail grapplers 295/70/17

    Struts ended up outward. with them pointing inward they ended up falling right between the existing holes in the cross member. There wasn't that much solid metal between the existing holes on the bottom side and on the top side was a gapping hole. We ended up using one of the small existing holes on the bottom(about the same size as the bolt that needed to go thru there)and put a large washer on top to deal with that.
    What did you end up doing with yours? I see you asked the question without much responce.

    I see the guy over at this thread had the same issue as me with the swaybar and just added some washers to the bracket to get the swaybar some clearance.

    Love the look of those tires!

    I put mine inward towards the transmission crossmember, but it just didn't seem right to me. Even though the directions said inward and when I called RCD the guy said inward.

    I was expecting at least a couple responses to my question, but I guess not many people have the RCD lift.

    I'm going to move them outward next weekend. I'll post up pics of my truck if it ever stops raining. :mad:

    Im going to give it a good once over tomorrow. we did go thru today at the end and checked all bolts etc. But I had 3-4 guys working on it, so just for my piece of mind I'm going to double check everything myself.

    Probably a good idea. I didn't have any clearance issues with the say bar, but every truck is a little different.

    I wasn't overly worried about it as I knew from reading this thread and others, that a few others had the same issue.

    Thanks!

    Nice! I know exactly what you mean. I've seen some jaws drop when I drive by stock tacomas. :D

    I just went and looked at my sway bar in the day light. It actually is touching on the drivers side. I didn't notice looking at it last night in the dark after your post. Just finished shimming it up with a couple washers as you did. Thanks for posting that or I wouldn't have looked.

    Looks awesome buddy! Glad it went well for you! I ended up putting my track bars to the outside like you were talking about in the existing holes in the cross member. I just located the weird sound, which was the sway bar the other day and fixed it with a couple washers. Now to just modify the stock skid plate to fit and a little trimming on the back part of the front fenders and I'll be golden, the tires are just barely rubbing on a turn when I hit a bump

    To do this with this lift I'm pretty sure you would have to do quite a bit of trimming and most likely a cab mount chop as well.

    I figured there would still be the CMC involved with other trimming, just curious to see if anyone has pics of the RCD lift with 35s

    Got a good shot in the parking lot at work today, yes I was grinning ear to ear :) Can't wait for all this snow to be gone so a truck wash last more then a day.
    My coworker just got his 2011 black Standard cab. I already have him addicted to modding his Tacoma lol.
