    Question guys and gals
    I've noticed some trucks on this forum and others places with the rear lower than the front. I have an 05 Tacoma with no TSB work done, so my concern is with the provided 2.5 blocks in the rear, it will sit low in the back and be higher in the front. So I traded in the 2.5 block for some 4 inch pro comp blocks. Does anyone know if the ES9000 will be long enough for this?

    YA YA...before I get crap for the blocks, I plan on going all leaf in the long run. This is my short term solution.

    A little off topic, but a recent thread reminded me. I took off my sway bar a while ago, but I can get the end links out of the spindles?!??! I've tried a few different things, anyone have any suggestions?

    So two issues. Where my end links are zip tied, there is nothing to thread, and nothing on the back side of the spindle. I don't know how to get them off???

    Second issue, you can see where my that rod (can't think of the name) is contacting my coil. This is occuring on both sides. It happens at full lock, and I don't like it. Any ideas how to fix either issue?

    Thanks to anyone who can help!

    i got my swaybar mounts off by hitting it through with a screwdriver, but idk about the steering rod contacting the spring, do you have the stage I or II lift, cause there should be no problem with the stock springs and shocks

    I'll try that guys, thanks. Stage II. I can try to get a picture, but on the backside, if I remove the bolt holding a small bracket, I think its just a hole, so I can try a screwdriver to get the links out.

    If you can get a picture of your krookz that would be awesome. I guess that is my only complaint about the install. It only happens at full lock, so It isn't a huge deal I guess. But I would like to get it fixed.
    Thanks again.

    So far this is the only issue I've really had. Are you doing it yourself?

    Dual antenna, don't forget about the inspection sticker and license plates.

    ok, so since we can't come to a conclusion, how about this, what antenna mount does that looks like? looks like a flat mounting bracket that was sandwiched inbetween the bestop and the bedrail to me. Sound right?
