Well, I did it!!!!

Oh dang. Yea the total chaos ucas are nice but like $700! Eeek! But they definitely help with an alignment.n

 

Is it recommended to get this whole kit? Or did you mean (2) +6" pieces? And is it highly recommended that I extend them? I dont take the truck out wheeling at all. Just mostly dirt roads to go shooting. The truck is my daily driver.

 

Where did y'all get your setup? I did my whole life for $480.

 

At least do the rear axle Man. Don't risk that lol

 

Toytec lifts.com
Cheapest place I could find.
I got you beat with my spacer/block lift thats on my truck now though hahaha $150

 

Is it just one main line for the rear axle??? Toytec sells a braided line.

 

I bought mine from Headstrong off-road. They have free shipping and awesome prices.

That brings me to the lift. Next time y'all need a lift go to Headstrong. I got the AAL, 5100's, plate spacer, and OME coils for $460 and free shipping.

 

Holy crap!! Too late but I'll check them out.

 

Just checked and for the exact kit I got through toytec seems to be just around the same price. Fewwwww!!!!

 

$480?? I got all my stuff from toytec, full OME kit 881s with assembled coils, toytec aal, total chaos uca's, exhaust bracket, and I think u bolts

 

I need UCA's lol

 

Nice lift options guys. I was thinking of the TC UCA my self but ended up getting Light Racing UCA as they are cheaper and adjustable. I put my lift on a few months ago I got everything from Wheelers because I am in southern OR so I just went and picked the stuff up so no shipping lol. I also went with the Wheelers progressive add a leaf pack but it only does 1.5 lift so now i need shackles. In retro spec I should have got the Icon progressive add a leaf pack. please excuse the dirty truck we have had shitty weather so it hasn't been washed. I have cooper st maxx 285/75r16 and they are about an 1/8 under 33's. The center caps for the wheels didn't fit so I am going to paint the drums and front hub cover soon as it warms up.

 

Awesome truck!!!! Can't wait to put 33's on mine some day. Did you extend any brake lines???

 

Did you leave the overload leaf in? If not, you can always put that back in there in addition to the AAL pack and get and extra 0.5" of lift.

 

No didn't feel the need to I would have to be flexing pretty hard to need it. I don't off road too hard just mostly dirt trails for hunting and playing in snow.

 

That's about all of the "wheeling/offroading" I do too. Well except the play in the snow part lol since I'm in Tucson Az. Mt Lemmon isn't too far from me though.

 

I still have them and could put them back in but they say the ride will be harsher. not really sure how as they are like spacers and don't get used unless you load the hell out of the bed which I don't. However the rear would still need a bump up even with the overloads so I'm think about the toytect 1" shackle or the daystar 1 1/4" treatable shackle.

 

I think you should be fine then. When I did the install I dropped the axle pretty far before the line was getting to its max. If you do the install be sure to remove the bolts on the axle for the break line so you can drop the axle further.

 

From what i've read, the overload does not affect the ride. Just adds the ability to carry more weight and adds the 1/2" that is the thickness of the leaf. Just and idea. If you're wanting more than 1/2" then a shackle would definitely make more sense.
