    Yep! 4 tires. Yeah, I didn't think they wouldn't toss some gravel, but it's more that I expected. haha

    Ah: I should also note;
    I did not install the carrier bearing standoff.
    Drove it first, had no vibration issues, and so, didn't use it.

    From that pic, the truck looks almost level. Have you measured how high the truck sits now (hub center to fender)?

    Also, how's the truck alignment with stock UCA?

    Which spring rating did you get?

    If you have a chance, I'd appreciate if you could measure from center of hub to the bottom of the fender. Front and rear.

    I'm just curious how much lift you actually got. As far as I know, it's supposed to be roughly 2" all around, which should leave a noticeable rake, no?

    I got B spring because of the front winch, rear bumper and camper shell (which isn't on right now)
    You can get 10mm trim packers for the front struts which level the front end...

    Alan, so I purchased my Ironman kit and I plan on going to a shop tomorrow so they can compress my new coils and install the shocks and new top hats.

    The problem I have is that according to the "instructions" that came in the box, the coils should be labeled D for driver and N for passenger, but mine are not. I know the leafs are, and I saw on an FJ forum that their springs were labeled. I was wondering if yours were labeled D or N?

    Thanks

    mine weren't labeled, either
    called and asked, and that's how they come.
    no worries.
