    I've heard the diff drops works better with first gen's but doesn't do much with second gen's.

    hmm, i have the toytec ULK coil overs and my boots look like yours, which they shouldn't because yours is 3 inches in the front and the ULK comes pre loaded at 2.5" and i have yet to make any adjustments. maybe i need more time to settle? it's been almost 300 miles so far. peculiar indeed watson!!!

    ^ did you take before and after measurements?

    If your about 23" hub to fender, then your at about 3" lift.
