3" Lift + CV Angles - bring pics

I measured it today and it's 2.3" higher than before so probably about 2" higher than stock maybe a little less.

 

Angles look gravy though, which is good. Seems like 2.5 to 2.75" is the max safe zone.

I hope Wyatt gets those high-angle CVs over here at a decent price...I'd totally crank 'em up after adding a pair of those suckers.

 

I think they look pretty good to. That's one of the reasons I didn't want to go with the 886 coils.

 

I think I'm at 3.25" of lift right now. It might have settled a tad.

 

No biggie. Manufacturing tolerances are going to result in 1/4" differences between trucks...that's why no one can agree on exact measurements, it's always a range reported.

If Wyatt gets those damn high angle CVs on sale over here, that'll be near the top of the mod list so I can crank those suckers back up.

 

None over the road. Haven't had a chance to flex it out yet. There's a little frame contact at full lock in reverse at the rear of the tire inside the turn.

 

Hub to fender just a tad under 23.5

 

You guys need to do hub to fender heights. If someone is running 30 psi and another is running 40 psi that will skew the ground to fender comparison. Here is mine. toytec ULK w/ diff drop and carrier spacer. Set to 3.25" of lift, rides buttery smooth.





25k miles lifted w/ 32" tires and supercharger fun. No probs.

 

Plus a KM2 285 is like 32.7 and I believe chris said his NTG 285 was 31.something

 

I'm going to get with Max at Monster Rides t see about a possible group sale for these axle's. I don't know what pricing will be yet as alot of it will do with shipping prices. If we can get a half way decent group buy going then that will help bring the price down.

 

so what benefit do the RCV axels have?

 

alright after reading im still confused.... my outer boot keeps coming off and leaks grease everywhere, the dealership said its not covered under warranty due to the lift i put on it.. toytec ULK, what are to solutions to this problem? do i just buy a larger boot that flexes more? thanks

 

One solution is to drop the lift a tad. I've also heard there is a way to get a tad bit more out of the boot by moving it and gluing it in place or something. Search for Toku's posts on lifts, I think that's where I read it.

 

Or do what I did and remove the Ultimate kit, sell it, and buy a 4.5" drop bracket RCD kit. My dealer covered my first boot due to the fact that they had lifted trucks on their lot for sale brand new. It took some fighting but they did it.

 

Articulate through a greater range without binding, higher strength components, won't chew boots.

 

Sounds like a good investment, but 1800 for a set is pretty steep. They really wont pop CVs as easily as the stock axels?

 

Hence why we're all waiting to see what Wyatt can do with this other option from Aus.

 

Dont make fun of me cause Im slow lol.

But now that im on the same page

 

This is probably a dumb question but what the heck....What's a RCD kit??

 

It's a drop bracket lift where pretty much everything is moved down including the front differential.
