I still have to finish capping off the fenders, then get them line-x'd, and then it will be presentable enough for her, maybe!!

P.S. What year LC coils did you find that were 21" long? 8 wraps, right?

Today, I got the following parts in:

1) All-Pro Extended Rear Brake Line
2) Tundra Front Coils
3) Lift Lips

And, I'm waiting to get my custom upper link urethane bushings from H&H Speed and Machine. It's coming together, and I'm really looking forward to the softer spring rate up front. Hopefully, it will equal the same as the rear, which would be ideal.

It won't happen till next week at the earliest. I have to go out of town Thursday for work. But, I'll definitely take some good pics and measurements of the front end. And, I'm hoping to come up with a viable extension for the e-brake. I was pretty hesitant to buy the Lift Lips, because as you know I'm not all that big on looks. But, I figure at some point, I need to make it look a tad better.

They fit in the factory holes and cover up the gaps caused by the body lift. www.liftlips.com

I'm assuming you're talking about the lift lips, so they were like $68 shipped I think.
