So, state your lift and tire size. If your lift is more than one component, elaborate! It can only benefit all of us.

I'm hoping we get at least 50 lifted Tundra's from this thread.

See sig line... SAW's up front, Daystar AAL's rear, BFG 285's on IS wheels...I guess that makes me #52. Keep on truckin'!

I have a Tuff Country 4" lift and SAW's set at 1.5". Even at full droop, I still have a 1/2" clearance between the brace and coil. On my brace, the point that was closest to the coil came to a point. I trimmed it down a bit to give more clearance. I'm going to make an additional brace to sit on top of the spindle and under the spacer. Kind of like a brace sandwich for the spindle. Thought you might be interested.
I actually did the same thing when I first got my Kings (shaved off the high points closest to the coils) but ever since PG series put that brace on I'm back to where I was before and I'll have to shave the high points again. When I first got my Kings I told Eliminator Motorsports I wanted a heavy rake and they gave me every bit of height that shock could provide, but I didn't like the guitar like noises coming from my shocks not to mention that fact that I felt I was laying down counting clouds while I was driving. I would like to take a look at your sandwhich job when your done. Thanks for the tip.

Eric

I installed my new Skid Row Front Skidplate today. Fits a body lifted truck fine. I knew it would though because it mounts to the existing wholes on the frame. On top of that it makes the stock skidplate look like a kids toy. Now I just need a couple of ARB lockers.

You and me both. I've done the research, and the compressor, plus rear lockers, plus gear changes to 4.56 (cuz hey, might as well) is around $2700. Thats the best price I found.

Think you can take a pic of the plate (or a couple of them?) similar to this pic:

Thanks bro!

Maybe in a while, we could get a group buy for ARB lockers going... A price break on those would be a biggg help. I've got the TRD LSD tho (from factory), and I don't know if it'd be worth losing it.

Ohhhhh it'd be worth it. The ARB *isn't* an electronic locker by the original sense of the word, but it really is. You push a button on the console, and the compressor powers up, and then, voala! Locked differential. Not to mention you can air up/down your tires without ever having to get to the tire station!!!!

I won't be able to hit that group buy up until the end of next summer, at the earliest. Unless of course my winning lottery ticket works out....

akshooaly, it's even better than that. you run the compressor to air up the tank, then you can use the tank to inflate your tires, run the locker, inflate an air mattress, etc...

Man haven't been on the site for a while. Feels good to be back and reading some of the latest posts.

Check the specs on my truck in my sig and click to see my photos.

Lifted using Cornfed 2.5 front spacers w/ 1.25" rear blocks. Rides great. Love the set up.

Peace
