    I'm planning on buying a toytec 2.0 boss kit with TC uca and aal for the back. My question is do they do a discount for tw members and will 275/70/17 run without rubbing?

    Day 3 after delivery. I promised photos so here they are. I'll be doing a build thread because there are a lot more mods coming and need to thank the TW members who helped me to decide what route I wanted to go with the build.

    Here are basics:
    Toytec Boss 2.0 w/ SPC UCA's and Toytec AAL
    275/70R17 KO2's
    Pro Comp 7036 17x9 -6 offset
    No rubbing

    Yes load E. I only drove from dealer to home & home to installer so can't really compare to stock but I'm liking the feel if it. Toytec did a great job on this lift.

    Your 5100's at 0 or .85? I've got the same setup waiting in the garage to be installed. I'm leaning towards the .85 notch with my 887s

    Nice! Did you get 3 inches upfront? Before and after measurements?

    I didn't measure before hand because I had everything installed at dealership prior to taking delivery, but I am certain I got 3" up front. I need another 1/2" to 1" in back to level out. I used the Headstrong Progressive AAL in the rear, thinking about adding a small block

    Nice. Go with the 1 inch block. It's always nice to have some rake in the rear for towing or hauling shit.

    Looks awesome. Installing same kit on my truck next weekend. Were the coils adjusted any more than what they were set at from ToyTec?

    Not that I'm aware of. They didn't mention that they did. With the lift & tire combo the cab sits a hair under 3" higher based on the average measurements from ground to bottom of the four wheel flares. You're going to be very happy next weekend.

    Has anyone else had an issue with the rear end not sitting center? After putting 1 inch blocks in, my right rear tire sicks out farther than the left by about 3/4 of an inch. Pins all lined up, no issues with the install.

    When I went in to do the lift I told the installer that I had an extra UCA bolt so that he could cut out the passenger side to make it easier like a few TW members have reported doing. He brought up a good point:

    If you're putting the replacement bolt in backwards, there is the chance that with vibration the nut could come loose and if it did because of the downward angle of the bolt it could then slide and cause the whole UCA assembly to unattached. So he doesn't recommend doing it.

    Makes sense to me because no nut & bolt is 100% secure. If the bolt is in as it comes from the factory even if the nut were to vibrate loose and fall off at least the bolt would stay in.

    Just a FWI

    **so I have a bolt to sell if someone is more of a Kenny Rogers than I**
