So I lifted my '19 runner 3 inches a couple weeks ago. (OME up front and Toytec springs and 5100s in the rear). It came with a 1 inch front diff drop kit. I installed it today but the instructions were vague and probably wrong. They said I needed to install the skid plate spacers on the rear skid? (i am assuming the transfer case skid?) well, I did that and it seems like it didn't need it. However, the front skid appeared to need the spacers instead. So i installed the spacers on the back two bolts of the front skid and the front two bolts of the transfer case skid. However, even with that, the front skid still barely butts up against the front diff mount.
my question is, do you think having the skid plate up against the differential mount will cause any long term problems or rattling?
