    Ecgs bushing for front diff. Do it now rather than pulling same parts apart a second time once you feel the vibrations.

    I have thought about the ECGS bushing. I had a 3" lift on my 4th Gen 4Runner and I didn't experience the front end vibs.

    If you're doing install yourself. Wait and see.

    If you're paying someone to lift your truck. It's $60 plus another hour labour at that point.

    It's Your truck not mine.

    Correct, I am doing the install. It's been a few years since the last time I have installed a full kit.

    I am going to run the OME U-Bolts that came with the kit for now. U-Bolt Flip kit maybe on order once I start get into more challenging trails.

    Bump stops; I think I'll be fine with the stock ones; but I didn't get a raiser/spacer for the rear. Will I need to add a 2-3" block/spacer?

    From what I've read, I should be able to clear the Cab mount with the SCS wheels. If not, I can get by a few weeks while the CMC is ordered and installed.
