Mucho better Mark. I bet it rides a lot better too.

 

Looks great Mark.
Did it feel funny getting in and having to "step up"?

When you get a chance grab a measurement from the ground to the fender. I want to see if we are in the same ball park
If yours is taller than i need to raise mine up some more. Cant have you taller than i

 

Toddski,
Yeah, I bump my butt each time I get in. You don't have to worry about me being taller than you, but the truck may be another matter....
The top of the seam at the rocker panel is 21.5 just in front of the rear wheel, and just behind the front wheel top of rocker seam is 20.5. The bottom of the rear bumper is about 22 inches. This is with stock 225 75 15's.
How'd your's turn out?
Mark

 

Oh, I got proof! Mark

 

And this.

 

Looks good Mark! I have to watch my a** in our 99 when I get in. Well I am not going to lift my 93 for now as not enough money for the mods. Maybe later on. The truck looks fine as it is for now. Just installed some new sway bar bushings and are going to do the dreaded upper control arm bushings one night after work. Quite a job. Good thing I learned on someone else's,just kidding.

Hey Todd, when are we going for the burger? I am getting preety hungry . Bring Corey with you I'll buy for him.

 

Paul,
I'm still getting a shudder on bumps and I'm trying to figure out what that is. Also, the balance has been off since the tire remount. Any ideas how I can get it right? Mark

 

If you still have you paper work from Les Schwab I would stop back by Renton and see about having them rebalanced. Worth a try you did pay for the balance. Sorry I didn't do it all for you.

Did you have the front end checked out? It's kind of hard to tell if something is loose with an after market steering stabilizer. If you want to meet me in Maple Valley we can take a look at it.

 

Paul,
I got the wheels rebalanced. Going 40 on smooth pavement all is well. I know at least my left front bearing needs help. I'm going to replace both sets and seals, then see what's up. Damn, this is expensive! Mark
BTW, that Toyota Dealer in Renton by Les Schwab is soooo much cheaper than the Seattle stores, who actually charge MORE than list!

 

Good deal Mark. Let me know if you need any help on the front bearings.
