    OK, i recently bought a 2022 Tacoma TRD Offroad, decided to get some 285/70r17 KO2 tires and a stage 4 Icon lift, FUEL Off-Road Shok D666 Wheels +1 offset,... going in I knew I might need a Cab mount chop.. SO i took the truck to "toys for trucks" for the install. got it back with MAJOR rubbing and a ton of lights flashing (brake, ABS, Pre-collision, almost to the point I can't drive it (I ended up parking it and getting a rental till i can get the chop and figure out what's wrong)
    Looking at it I don't even know if the cab mount chop will fix the rubbing.. it looks like its barely rubbing on the sheet metal from the door frame and body that comes down before the cab mount.

    My question is do you think it was installed correctly? is there a way to adjust the tires forward a little, so it doesn't rub there? castors ( sorry if terminology is wrong) I'm a dumbass when it comes to trucks, but I'm trying to learn. I will attach a couple picture to hopefully help.
    Again thanks for any help you can give, I'm not a wealthy man and the tires, rims and wheels, lift and install have kind of been a sucker punch, AND on top it all went to shit and not drivable.

    Take it back and it would be considerate to save the “help!” Callout for those that are stuck and need actual help with recovery or a ride.

    He can use the word help in the title. It's not that serious.

    Yes, it is, we have members who do find themselves in dire need around here.
    And the word “help” is not the issue here, it’s the way OP used it in his title, as if there was an actual emergency.

    You need an alignment then see what you might need to cut.

    Did you get new UCAs?

    Stage 4 icon appears to come with tubular delta joint uca's. Likely needs a professional alignment to pull the wheels forward and the dash lights are probably due to the sensors on the grille? Probably just needs to be recalibrated now that it's sitting higher.

    edit: after that get a cmc from a reputable shop; not the place that installed this lift.

    I apologize for using help in the title, it was my first post and it won’t happen again. The kit did have new upper control arms. Yeah a couple people said it looks like an alignment issue. Thanks for everyone’s input, I will update when have fix
