Post your LIFTED pix here!

Big difference, Looks great!

I was thinking about going with the BP-51's....If you wanted to, could you add another inch to the front to level it out little more?

If measuring from ground to fender, I'm at 38 front, and almost 40 in the rear with 285's. I like where the rear is, but I want to make sure that when I go to a new lift, I'll be able to get the front to within about an inch or so from where the rear is , about an inch higher than I am now in the front....(I have the Toytec TRD Pro front spacer/rear spring lift now)

Thanks

Sorry, I am not sure. Hopefully someone else can chime in and help you.

nice! What rear springs did you go with?

889 3"

What did BFG say was the best tire to run? I'll be running the BFG AT on my 16 in a couple weeks. 285/70/17

I think that is about personal preference and how you plan to use your rig.
I prefer the E range because of our rocky terrain.

Thanks..Camdog

I think cmilviper was asking if the preload on the fronts was adjusted from the factory setting from ARB. I left the factory preload and just adjusted my rebound and compression to compensate for the lack of aftermarket weight (bumper/winch)...not ideal, however rides decent and a bumper and winch is on the way...

Thanks GreatApe....Exactly...

Still learning about different suspensions ect.....Hahah

Basically, I was just asking if the front coilover can be adjusted to a higher level for a more leveled look. Like you said yesterday, about an inch of rake is where I want to aim, rather than the 2 inch rake I have now...

I've had this picture captured from here (I think?) for a while, but don't have the specs on it. Anyone recognize it?

what kind of lift/springs/spacers? what tire size and any rubbing/trimming? the work in progress looks awesome so far.

Nice! Anxious to see your alignment numbers and more pics. I keep telling myself wait another 5k before raising it up to 2.5 but its gonna be hard to wait.

Just paid out the nose in ******* tax. Kept tools in the truck to recheck the bolts daily after the lift. Lifted it Sunday, had to readjust the rear remote reservoirs Monday. Didn't make time to check the lower control arm bolts then. Tuesday night, one bolt fell out a mile from my house. Had it towed to the stealership like a jackass and they bent me over a barrel.

I requested my parts back. They were not provided, nor was my alignment specs... Livid. Went back today to have the truck realigned for a spec sheet and to pick up most of my supposed parts. The caster is off, which is most likely why the spec sheet was not provided. If I took it to the 4x4 shop like I wanted to, that probably would not be an issue. I'm boned until I can recoup the damages.

The best part is that they sold me a dust cover, ball joint knuckle, two bolts and a rotor. The one part that they could not find was the dust cover... the one part that they don't replace daily. They gave me back a rotor & knuckle that looked like they were hit with an angle grinder. I have pics before I took the truck in to shop. The bolt dropped low speed and the knuckle popped of of socket at less than a 1 mile an hour; stopped immediately.

This one is going to corporate and the better business bureau.

Anyway, here are my specs... so pissed

Holy shit man.. That is what nightmares are made of. Sorry to hear the bad news. But yeah f**** the dealership I'd find an alignment shop that does race cars and other specialized vehicles and they'll get you taken care of.

Make sure before you take it anywhere set front LCA bolts in/washers out and the rear bolts just the opposite bolts out/washers in. I read somewhere that sets max caster and thats what I did before taking it in. They barely tweaked it for camber and easily within spec assuming thats why they didn't even charge me.

Good advice. All I wanted was an OEM bolt that Pep Boys probably would not carry. $900 and a bottle of Jameson later:frusty:

on the up side, the bolt did not drop out at 80 mph on the highway... were I was a minute earlier, which would have certainly led to the knuckle and wheel snapping off, probably flipping the truck and possibly death to my idiot self or an innocent bystander.

Perhaps I'm just karma's ***** today.

Got the tires/wheels put on Friday. Had to trim and mold the liners a bit but no rubbing!

Got bored this weekend and decided to install my rear ToyTec springs. I thought it'd look silly with out larger tires but she proved me wrong. Looks great in my opinion!

Top photo is stock. (October 2016)
Middle is just the front 6112's set at 2.5 inches (7th clip) (February 2017)
Bottom is how it sits today with the rear 2inch springs installed. (March 2017)
