    Thanks. I know I will. Only thing that is getting me is the shop complained to me about how I am going to hate those Alcan Springs. Made me see RED. Then they didn't even install the BEFFED TACO Carrier Bearing Drop. That's what I have planned for tomorrow when I get my baby home.

    Guys honestly I think I really might be addicted to MODS:confused:

    I know right! Got my current ome figured out by taking the top spacer out so the ride is worlds better. Now I miss the height. Well...that and wanting to do the s/c; basically deciding between the two at this point. I spend way to much time thinking about this choice.

    Lift goes on tomorrow!!! Will get it back Thursday. I'm like a kid on Xmas eve right now. I'm going to be rolling wheel gap hard for a bit with my 265's so that should be a sight to see. Don't laugh too hard when I post pics later.

    Did you ever figure out your sway bar? Mine is touching on the driver side too. I'm also feeling and hearing some clanking noise when I hit the brakes. The feeling is coming from below the cab. I'm about to go underneath it in a minute to see what's up.

    I have a slight vibration continuous from when I start rolling to any speed. I have a one piece driveshaft too. Interested to hear where u stand today with your vibrations Brandon.

    Thanks. I think I may be in a different boat than you since I have a one piece driveshaft already. As we all know these Tacos are infamous for their driveline vibes with the two piece design. Sounds like your alcans aligned your driveline to eliminate any vibrations. I'm thinking I may need to go back to the driveline shop for an adjustment? That is..if my vibes are indeed driveline related.

    yeah thats true. maybe they can make sure your driveline is indeed lined up properly. if not they should shim the leafs to make it right.

    Congrats on the lift Beastmode! No fix on the vibration issues yet. I've exhausted a ton of different options with the drive shaft including going to a single piece & all options are still giving me vibrations with mixed results. I'm still working through all of the options though & will let you know as soon as I find my solution. My next step is to order the alcan springs. This has got to help! Have you ever manually rolled the back tires of your truck back & forth to see how much flex is in the stock rear springs? It's quite a bit. I don't know... I just keep dumping more & more money into the truck just to get it to drive somewhat normal. It's starting to make me not even like the truck anymore. I hope I come to a solution soon & I'll keep you posted.

    I have vibes as well but it's only at certain speeds around 25mph, not sure why. It's bearable and I don't mind them too much.

    People who have problem with vibrate or whatever it is. I've had red lift since a little over 15k miles and honest I never had any problem with it or anything. I didn't install it myself. I had Randy's offroad install it for me. Sorry wish I could help u guys out!
