Good idea to check the shackle angle before fulluy welding on the front hanger. I need ot rememeber that when I start welding my stuff on.

The 3" TG springs are the 2nd highest spring rate springs they sell only just behind the 5" HD's. I have the same kit going on my truck (4runner, v6, winch and bumper) after talking to TG they advised that the 3" would be fine as long as I swapped on a 2wd oil pan. I guess I will find out soon enough. I do not want a huge truck as mine will mainly be for expadition and my tires will never be over 35's right now I'm at 33's and do not see my self going up anytime soon.

I have wheeled with a guy with V6 winch and bumper, with his 4" TG springs the truck saged badly in a few months. He has since swapped to 3" and has had no problem since in 2 years of use.

I'm really looking forward to seeing your truck on the ground.
