    My rpms are closer than what I thought they would be. Stock rpms at 60mph is just over 1800. 4.56 and 33's are about 200 rpms over that, 2000 - 2050ish. Supposedly 35s and 4.56 would be just under 1900, couldn't ask it to be any better/closer :cool:

    I need to just break down and regear already. There is no downside to it. You get what you pay for and its worth it.

    I was thinking about ordering from ECGS, get assembly's and return the cores. Get it done in one day. It seems my diffs are pretty toasted already, gray fluid from the rear diff everytime I change it(3 times already in 27k) and the front makes noise in 4wd. It's definitely time...

    I ordered mine through the last ECGS Group Buy. They usually do it around Labor Day though. That saved me like $200.

    Edit: I only bought front and rear gears though. They usually discount the gears more than everything else. Unfortunately they don't discount the assembly's though.

    What is the reasoning behind you having to change your diff fluid 3 times already? Did you submerge it without a breather mod?

    I bought the truck stock with14k,installed the lift all seemed fine. Around 22k I was going to take a 3000mile trip so I figured I'd change the fluid,and it came out gray. So I thought yeah maybe contamination since I didn't have by breather hose on yet. So I installed right after. I did my fluid again after my trip and it was gray again,I realize you don't get all of it out but still gray and shinny for me. The front diff makes noise but the fluid is clean as hell,go figure. The truck was super clean when I bought it, but it must have a story to tell. It's all good, it just gives me more motivation to regear.

    On this Pro Comp stage 1 kit......I'm curious if this top plate & rubber spacer in the coil are needed to be added back in when I swap to the new 886 coils?

    If the 886 coils don't include shocks that are as long as that that whole coilovers + spacer, yes they will need to go back in if you want to keep your height.

    Thank you Jon. Right now the truck looks like a hot rod from the 70's with ladder bars. The ARB bumper has compressed the front, stock coils to nothing & the rear is still lifted. I have SUPER RAKE. These 886's should do the trick.

    The 886 & 887 are heavy springs but I have no idea what # they translate to

    I change my tranny and diff oil all the time. Those 4.56's get really hot so I figure I might as well change the oil out often. Plus the yota master mechinx today me the more you change it the better.

    With driving 30K miles a year....coil overs that need rebuilds are not a good option. Going with OME 886 coils, Billys set to 0 & TC UCA's.

    Yes
    What makes you think that coil overs need to be serviced or rebuilt more often that any other shock ? That is a complete myth.
