I was confused about that part too. I put a Toytec Boss lift on my wife's 13 TE and it didn't come with any directions whatsoever but I didn't see any reason to remove the LCAs. But its not a bad idea as an "option" if you want to lube the bolts. The front sway bar was definitely a pain in the...

I have both. My wife drives a 13 TE 4Runner and I drive a 14 Tundra Crew Max Limited 4X4 with the TRD package. They are both great vehicles. If you need "dry" storage then you could always get a bed cover. My tailgate has a lock and if you got a water tight cover you would be good to go. My...

I love lifted trucks but I gotta say yours looks badass just the way it is.

Just finished putting a lift and tires and wheels on my wife's Magnetic Grey 13 TE.

Picked up the TRD "bling rings" from the powder coater yesterday. Had them done in flat black but since PC has a little shine to it they actually came out more of a "satin black" which is what she wanted to match her nerf bars. I think the black looks better than the stock shiny silver rings or...

Already did. Found a pile of rock and rubble by my house where they are clearing land for a new sub division. It was close but no rubbing. The TRD RW wheels have a lot more offset than most aftermarket wheels. I still might get it realigned to max out the caster just for the peace of mind but I...

Thank you very much for the info and pictures. Its pretty obvious from the fact that he didn't even touch the upper ball joint that he really didn't put any effort into the alignment. He just looked up the factory specs and set it. Part of the problem is that a good alignment seems to be a bit...

Ok thank you. It honestly does drive fine. I haven't noticed any weird or funky driving or handling issued. It drives straight and doesn't pull to either side. Im really more concerned with tire wear at this point. I realize caster doesn't effect tire wear much but I wasn't sure if .3 on the...

Thanks guys. Despite my rubbing issues that I just finished taking care of, how do those numbers look to you guys? I know its not the ideal +4 but is it acceptable? The truck drives straight and doesn't pull to either side. Camber is .3 on both sides. Left side caster is +2.7 Right side caster...

Well that's the problem. He never used the upper ball joint to adjust the camber. So basically he got as much caster as he could using the cams on the LCAs but he got to the point where he couldn't get any more caster without starting to screw up the camber. Im pretty sure he could have gotten...

I posted this in a different thread but Im hoping you guys could give me some advice. Yesterday I wrapped up putting a Toytec Boss lift on my wife's 2013 TE. I also installed LR UCAs on the "D" setting. she's running 285/70R 17s on TRD RW wheels. At the time I slid the camber adjustment all the...

Kinda irritated right now. I dropped the truck off to get aligned and spoke to the tech about the LR UCAs. I gave him the print out showing the different ball joint positions so he could adjust it to get max caster. I also explained that I slid the ball joint all the way to the outside just to...

Thanks man. Im pretty happy how it came out.

I finished up the lift and tires today. Heading to the alignment shop in the morning and picking up the TRD bling rings from the powder coater on Friday. The wife is pretty happy and Im happy to not be laying in the driveway covered in dirt and grease anymore. lol

Yep. Tires are 285/70R 17 Duratracs. +4 seems to be the most widely recommended number so that's what Im going to have them shoot for.
