Is this the part/product you are referring to?

No drilling, easy install. I used the Sokietech from Amazon. Around 50 bucks and watched the RobbMotiv video for the install. They seem to function well, seen a lot of good reviews on here.

 

That is the carrier bearing drop kit, which is what I tried first. It improved things slightly, but the vibration was still there and my driveshaft angles were still off. I removed that and added these: https://www.headstrongoffroad.com/store/p119/Axle_Shims_-_(2_degree_to_4_degree).html

The first thing you want to do is check your angles to see how far off they are. Here is a video explaining it:

hmmm......i wonder how it rides

 

Rides pretty well considering no load rn, trying to figure out the compression/rebound settings for my usage. Still going through the research process for armor and winch, I plan to have it fully built by spring. There’s so much cool stuff out there it’s almost overwhelming.

 

compared to what you had?

 

came from Stock OEM TRD OR billsteins. Even though I’m still in the process of dialing in the compression/rebound adjustments, it’s a very noticeable improvement to ride and handling, but that is no surprise

 

I have a similar setup with BP-51's except with SPC control arms and Ironman 4x4 heavy load leaf springs. I also had the medium load version of their springs prior to getting a Super Pacific. Either way, it rides really nice and there is zero squeak from the leaf springs. I also added the Timbren active bumpstops front and rear and Archive Garage hammer hangers/shackles.

 

Can I ask where you purchased the kit from? Did you have to have anything checked after the install? and approx. How long to change everything out?

 

Nice where is that located and what did it run you? Do they clean the underside before they spray it?

 

Chichester NH, 279.00, blew it all down, and would have scraped it if needed for an additional 200.00, but that wasn't needed.

 

Honestly wish I had that service available around me in Virginia! Looks like they did a great job!

 

Had to check my truck over for damage this morning... last night my wife and I were at a meeting for our daughters dance team, she had to go home before the end of the meeting and I was going to catch a ride with another dad there.
Mid meeting I text my son "what did she hit?" and he responds "how did you know she hit a curb?"

So, she hit a curb, ran over a sprinkler and a bike, and made a giant muddy tire track in the yard...

Her exact words before I gave her the keys was "you need to start trusting me with your truck"

 

Yeah, nope. My wife hasn't driven my last 2 trucks at all. I'll find scuffs and dings on her vehicle that she has no explanation for.
