Finally got a chance to look at my seat. I ended up solving my issue very easily. I took the front two seat bolts out, loosened the rears and found 6 washers. 3 on each side and then tightened everything down. This moved my seat a noticeable difference upward on my thighs and leaned it back some more. This also still left me with good amount of threads to still anchor the seat into the floor. I was even able to move the back of the seat forward once this was done. All in all, its minor but so far it seems to fix my height issue. I went from looking out the top of the windshield to looking more out the center, which is a big help on my neck.
If you didnt know any different you cant even tell.

Finally had a free weekend so i changed out my suspension. Got rid of the XREAS as it was sagging and really wanted more lift. I had the Daystar kit on but it just was sagging so much it made it almost stock height.
Before Measurements/After Measurements
RF 35.5 / 38.5
LF 35 / 38.5
RR 37 / 37
LR 37 / 37
I installed the Tacoma struts and the new LR UCAs. I was incredibly shocked at how fast everything went once i got started, i finished in under 2 hours total start to finish. XREAS is removed (will fully remove lines at a later date). New extended rear shocks, tacoma struts, top hat spacer for strut.
Alignment
While i had the wheels off i also trimmed my Method caps as they're 1970s large.
Im impressed with the Tacoma struts and the ride quality is tremendously better than my worn out XREAS. More responsive, softer when it needs to be and cruises great. I am very happy with this set up and would highly recommend it.

Its ok, i wont be able to paint them for a few weekends. I have too many details and trips coming up. Good problems to have.

Since you will be tied up with detailing and trips, i know it will pain you for them to just be sitting around, so i will pm you my shipping address and you can just send them on to me. This way you won't feel bad they are being neglected......out of sight out of mind. Glad to help out...:humble:

heres an update
Cleaned, grinded, primed and painted these.
Also i ordered these (previous pic, not actual tires)
265/70/17 Cooper STT's
While i was busy i realized my driver side front sits 1.5" lower than the passenger side. Sweet, so this weekend i plan to place a 3" spacer on the driver side to correct the odd lean. I hope tires come in for weekend install as well.
