Budget Boost now rear is lower

[zach1288]

I installed the Daystar Budget Boost last week and I'm happy with the way the front end looks but the rear now looks like its lower. When parked on a level parking lot the rear looks lower and the running boards actually seem to slope towards the rear. Has anyone else experienced this with the budget boost?

Would adding a spacer in the rear be too much lift?

Thanks.

Do you have pictures?

How many miles are on the rear shocks, and springs?

There are 108k on the springs and struts.

Here are some quick pictures I shot with my phone:

It looked a lot worse in a different parking lot earlier this morning.

When looking at the roof rack, or running boards, I can see what you're saying. Couple options to look into would be what bassmacka said, and add a spacer. Or another option would be to add a set of FJ rear coils if you can find a set on CL or eBay.

You can get all different size spacers... you just need to decide how much lift you want in the rear. Some people like a little rake while others like to have things dead level if they don't load their T4R or tow a lot. Cornfed can custom cut any size spacer you need.

I just ordered the Daystar 1.5". I'll install it this weekend. Thanks!

Will the 1.5" on the rear have any affect on the drive shaft angles in a negative way?

No it should be perfect, as is it will sag alot if you load it up. It might be a good idea to get the airbags too, since your going to be isntalling the spacers. might as well put them in at the same time.
