    3 inch leveling kit Black Method wheels
    So back in late October my friend and I installed a 3 inch leveling kit onto my 2013 Tacoma. Ever since then I’ve been experiencing a problem that doesn’t occur too often but when it does it leaves me concerned. When I’m driving on fairly curvy roads at a decent speed, sometimes about halfway through the turn I hear a grinding sound, feel it in the pedals, a light comes on just for a brief second on the dash (I believe it’s the slip indicator light), and it pulls me toward the other lane. I basically lose control for a second or two. Of course, this could be dangerous if it would happen to pull me into oncoming traffic, so I’d like to find a solution to the issue.

    Also like I said it doesn’t do it every day, it’s just kind of random and usually when I’m going about 40-50 mph.

    Thanks in advance!
