    It will fix it. I have the medium OME lift kit. I wish I got it sooner. Night and day. I’m so used to looking for it that I can feel the road differences now as my tires get older

    FYI I also have 3 degree toytec shims and 6 leafs in the Dakar pack

    You need the ECGS bushing for sure. Don’t waste time just get it

    Hey guys,

    As a follow up, I did the ECGS install this weekend. It took longer than I expected, solely because of removing and re-installing the CV axle. Thing was a bitch, but I finally got it. Vibes are gone 100%, as well as the clicks that I was hearing when turning. I would imagine that the clicking was from the cv "skipping" sections of the needle bearing, therefore clicking.

    I got worried for a second because I was leaking differential fluid after I emptied and filled it with new fluid. I am still leaking a little bit today, and it appears to be coming from where the CV meets the diff. I opened up the fill plug and fluid started to come out, so my guess is that I overfilled the diff and due to increase volume or pressure, it might be forcing some fluid out. As of today, it's still slightly overfilled.

    To anyone that's on the fence about this install, I highly recommend doing it, and doing it when you're already do your lift kit. Having a friend helps, as there were points in which I had an extra set of hands.

    Do yourself a favor, get a heavy hammer, mine was 2.5 lbs, although I've heard that 4lbs works better. It'll help when smacking the shit outta the CV trying to get it in/out.
