well i did the rear lift finally! sorry for no pictures i forgot my camera when i was doing the lift. But anyways the truck really looks nice and rides beautiful . when i went to go flex on a pile of rocks the back of the truck didnt even flex for crap (hopefully the springs just need to be broken in) but the front of the truck flexes to the moon so thats a good thing lol. ill be sure to post some pictures later on today of the truck!!!

yeah i know lol it has about 8" total of lift, 2inch body lift with TG 4" front springs and 5" rear springs and then cause i mounted the shackles on the bottom of the frame im gonna say another 2". yeah i was thinking about getting bigger tires but the 35's tuck really good in the wheel well so ill probly just stick with 35s

so what kind of rig did the front axle com out of?

Could take a pack or two outta the leafs to lower it some. that thing is scary tall.. Real clean for sure. Nice job

yeah i was thinking about taking the 2inch body lift off when i first did the lift but the uptravels amazing and stuffs all the way in the fender so idk lol

fillsrunner4

yeah moving the body lift would definetly help a little with the height. BTW the downtravel is more important than up tho i love the look of a stuffed tire lol. should put in some soft bumpstops. I think if it sat a little lower via removing the body lift would give it a sick mean look. Looks nice keep it up!

Thank You

I vote lose the body lift'

molokaiboy

nice truck man , look just like mine. but the only thing is that my have dana front and back

t-1hundred

i was probably gonna keep the body lift so i can stuff bigger tires under her

oh man your truck looks sweet in your avatar. any pics??? btw i was actually thinking on doing a d44 in the rear but im unsure, i mean i dont think it would be hard at all just shock mount and remount the spring perches. also did you buy a flange yoke or did you use the stock u joint yoke?

If i do actually stick with the 8.4 rear end ill probably end up doing a diamond axle housing and then i'd be happy with that cause stock yota rear housings suck IMO. the 8.4 diff itself is beefy though and have no problems there and i beat the hell outta the poor thing

t-1hundred

all the goodies

thick 4.88s

stock 3.08s that came in the carrier (pinion gear is huge lol)

Aussie locker installed!

pattern was ok pinion a lil on the shallow end but i probably can get away with it

got a flange from inchworm gear so i can run a yota driveshaft
