    Losing turning radius is typical on a Fabtech lift. Steering stops are installed on your new spindles.

    ^^This. It was my biggest disappointment about the lift. But it can be fixed. The steering stop is just an ear on the spindle and as such can be.....um.....:spy:......removed. It will void your warranty though. After the grinding process is complete, you will notice a severe rubbing issue. Inner fender wells will need to be trim and a cab mount chop will be on your short list. I suggest that if you do this that you also reinstall some kind of stop to avoid over rotating your steering components to prevent damage.

    Original Tacoma: 6" lift, air bags in the rear, 17x9.5 XD Series rims w/ 35" Cooper STT Pro tires. Body Armor rear bumper with swing arm tire mount, TRD Exhaust, URD True Cold Air intake, TRD Front Brakes, RIGID INDUSTRIES grill and LED bar installed in it, LED Rear Lights, TracRack rack system, tool box. Sold the truck. Bought 2016 ram 2500 Laramie diesel. (7/2016) Picked up 97 Tacoma 4x4 Extended Cab 3.4L. Building motor now. (8/2017)
    So finally somewhat finished my lift, regear, and got new shoes put on the truck. Sitting pretty now!

    Still waiting to get my coil overs.

    Sitting on the lift, patiently waiting for the new shoes! :)

    No trimming necessary. 35" tires fit well! Even retained rear mud flaps!

    What would you guys say was the hardest offroading you've done with stock DB kits?

    My ProComp stage 2 went with me once to do what I would consider to be easy now. I learned that the ride was horribly stiff.

    Anyone change out their carrier bearing after lifting 6"? I get some vibration at 10mpg. I have ECGS bushing in front diff, but stock carrier bearing has wobble. I posted a video in my build thread.

    Found this carrier bearing http://www.mcmaster.com/#2722t25/=zs50sh. Thinking about trying it out.

    Found a guy using it on this forum:
