    Did any of you guys not have vibes? I am getting excited for the install, but am just curious how likely these "vibes" are going to be. Some people run a center bearing drop, some run shims, I don't know if I have seen anyone actually solve their issue. lol Then again I have seen people who don't have any issues at all.

    If any of you know any threads that helped you let me know. There are so many threads out there that lead no where.

    From what I understand the CB drop is a good starting point then from there you just have to drive and around and see if you get any vibes. From there you can shim the rear and eliminate possible causes one by one or for all you know you may not get anything

    Alright thanks guys. I ordered a CB drop, so I will install that as well and see how it goes. I am just trying to be prepared if I do have them. It seems like it's a shot in the dark on whether or not I will have them.

    anyone have any idea if I'm going to need new bushings for the Dakar leaf springs? How hard would it be to pull the old ones out of the old leaf springs or someone have part numbers for rear leaf spring bushings??? Thanks in advance:)

    We put in my OEM ones with a bench vise as a press , probably could have used a C clamp

    Satoshi'd grill. blacked out badges. aftermarket sound system. De-chromed and color matched. OME 885s + Dakars with 3rd leaf removed. LR UCAs. Scs stealth 6 with 285 duratracs. BAMF sliders
    I believe toytec includes new bushings, i ordered my dakars from downsouth motorsports and they did not include rear bushings

    IIRC i payed around $8 per bushing at my local toyota dealer, so $32

    Yep, i pressed mine in pretty easily with a c-clamp.
