    WOW awesome new kit! What's the max tire size? 33's, 34's? Now for the big question- If you install this on a 4wd truck, does the factory cross member have to be removed for the diff drop? I was just thinking it's not a 6" drop like the others so maybe you wouldnt have to cut it. That feature alone would lead me to this kit over fabtech, tuff country's, or procomp's lift kit.
    What's the price going to be for this kit?

    You can fit a 35" with minor trimming, but I have 33x20" Toyo's and I have plenty of room! As for cutting- I have a 2WD so I didnt have to cut anything but I read through the instructions and the kit was a 4X4 kit- I dont remember seeing any modifications or cutting required!

    So is there any way to switch the rear block out for an aal? or would that be too low in the back? How would you go about it?

    I will call RCD right now and check for the cutting- as for the rear lift it comes with a 4" block, a rear AAL wouldnt make the truck level.

    Just got off the phone with RCD- you do have to make a small cut to the crossmember to make the kit work on 4WD models

    Matt from RCD is emailing me the install instructions for you guys to check out! He said its a 6in cut that has to be made for the kit..

    so for prerunners, you can run 33's with no cutting? If yes, would that include 33's on stock wheels?

    I have 33x20" on my truck and they have plenty of clearance- I believe I could fit a 34 or 35" tire with a little trimming. The kit rides like a dream, way better than my previous coil overs- I recommend this kit 10 times over a ProComp kit for both quality and performance. The custom valved 5100's work awesome both on and off road- I went testing off road the other day and was impressed...!
