    The first video walks you step by step for the front install, the second one is useful, but I installed toytecs aal like the third video. The second video I didn't really use. If you do a Wheeler install like they do, that second video will be worth referencing. The third video he does a great job explaining, but doesn't show the front installation completely because he forgot to record it.

    I also used the pdf instructions linked in this thread.

    Traded the 2015 TRD Pro 6spd Supercharged on a PowerWagon and could not be happier. My 2011 Tacoma with the TX Baja package (Added by me) is still treating me great. My 1985 Toyota never skips a beat.

    Unless I missed them they don't have them either. Neither does Headstrong. Both vendors offer bushings for the front though.

    Thanks. I find it helpful to watch the process first so I can formulate a plan in my mind.

    That is what I though you needed, which one are you looking for?

    What's everyone's stance on the great sway bar debate? Disconnect it during install and take it out entirely, or re-install it?

    I just followed the kit instructions and they didn't mention disconnecting it so I didn't bother. I'm sure it might have made getting the shocks out easier though.

    I'm speaking more to people uninstalling it permanently... Some take it out and say the truck is more fun to drive and rides smoother.

    stuff

    I took mine off completely to see how it felt, and I like it. Just got back from a 300 mile round trip through the mountains, and it handled great. I am planning to leave mine off.

    I may take mine off to see if it's my source of noise I'm getting on bumps

    Finally got mine installed!
    Rear is wheelers progressive AAL with overload in. Front has 1/4” spacers on both sides. I have about 100 lbs in the back and still have a rake of just over 1” from rear to front. Tires are 265/75/R16 Falken Wildpeak.

    Bad news is that my needle bearing has failed already. Has anyone had luck with the dealer replacing or am I better to upgrade to the ECGS?

    Dealer replaced mine after my first lift with the tsb bearing. 18 months and 45k later and still no issues.

    Yeah should be covered under Toyota's Powertrain Warranty. I want to say there's a TSB floating around for 3rd gens that you can bring to reference.
