    2.5" Supreme suspensions lift
    So I installed a 2.5" lift on my 2010 taco. All was working well until I started chasing a squeak around the front end. I finally found the issue but not sure how severe it is, how it happened, or how to fix it. Any response is appreciated. Attached is the picture of the side with the issue (below) and the other side without issue (top)

    I'm almost positive you installed it wrong.

    ^ This. The spacer goes on top of the strut, not on top of the coil bucket. They are installed incorrectly.
