    Just curious what you guys think my chances are of getting vibs from a 1.5in lift?

    I have some 5100's sitting around since I've been contemplating some eibachs up front paired with a 3 leaf Icon aal in the back.

    I don't want to have to deal with out of whack drive line angles or aggravate the shoddy needle bearing design up front.

    Should I just go for it? YOLO right1?!?11

    Some stock trucks have vibes, some lifted trucks don't. Total dice roll.

    stock OR coils, only change is 1.75 setting on new 5100's on my new 2013 tacoma with 9k miles on it.... i now have an ECGS bushing in to fix vibes.

    Do yourself a favor, just do the ecgs bushing, it will save your CV in the long run....

    I have a 2" lift. I ended up with vibe and had to shim the CB.

    vibes*

    like stated if you dont have the vibes, you will probably get a rear driveline vibration and if your a 4x4 you will probably get the front diff vibe.... rear Driveline vibration can be reduced by carrier bearing drop.... front diff can be solved by ecgs bushing.
