OME ARB 2.5 HD lift installed

I'll post pictures once I get the new 33x10.5 tires on but I finally got the OME ARB lift installed on my 85 4runner. I went with only a 2.5 inch lift and it looks good for the most part. Everything went on fairly well but I had to make a new torque rod as the old one no longer fits. I made an adjustable torque rod using 3/4 threaded rod with 2 locking couplers. It works well. I also installed OME greasable frame pins and shackles.

So quick question for anyone who has done this; I installed the CS009FA spring on the front drivers (left) side and the CS009FB on the passenger (right) side. Is this correct? I read on here that there is a 20mm difference between the 2 sides...so I want to make sure I got that right.

One issue I noticed, after taking the 4runner out for a quick ride, it now leans 1/2 inch to the right (passenger) side. It does this for both the front and rear. Kind of odd...not sure if this is normal and eventually it will level out. Any thoughts are welcomed.


Thanks
JARED
