    Looks good Johnny!

    4 questions:
    What size tires?
    What is the frame height?
    What's the front drive line length?
    What TC are you using?

    So the springs should settle after a bit which will result in a lower frame height.

    I'm on 33's and will be around 23 +/- and have 12" Rad Flo's. I was to have 14's but I have way too much crap under the hood.

    Any idea on drive line length?

    The 28 3/4" is the length of my drive shaft at ride height, my frame height I haven't measured yet.

    Oh and my frame height is 23 1/2 right now. Nice and low, but I think I'm gonna bring it up an inch.

    Just curious as I have a set of the 4340 cromos goin in my prerunner in 2 weeks. There was some confusion on the abs housing and the proper bearings but I think im good with the 79-95 bearings on a non abs housing.

    Adjusting the "Tacoma lean" and couldn't resist snapping a photo while adjusting the coilover. Just need to tighten the driveshaft down then take her for a test spin
