Camburg upper control arms/ TC spindles, Rear Bilstein 5100 shocks, Bazooka sub, Snuglid SL Future mods: I would love to regear when available..
My problem is the ABS brake sensors. I want to raise the front of truck higher (1.5") but the sensors are maxed..I need to figure something out.
I also have matching snuglid on order and I would love to do 4.56's if they were available..

Thanks guys for the props! That spacer is part of the Tough Country kit. It isnt a spacer lift.

Is the 06 rear end different than earlier years?? If not, then the 456s have been in production through the aftermarket for some time now. According to precision gear and RR&P. the front diff is different in a 05-06, not the same as 04 and earlier. They said they tried to install gears for a tundra for the SEMA show but could not get them to fit. According to toyota the front diffs are all the same as are the rears, BUT ALL the aftermarket places say they are different. I haven't had 1 apart yet to look and see if my spare set of 4.56's will fit.
Anyone that wants to bring me their front diff and gears, I'd be happy to experiment with them.
As far as the ABS sensors. Are you saying the lines dont have enough slack? Can you unbolt the brackets for more slack?
TS member STEALTHSR5, I did (FIXED) the RCD lift for him and he has ABS. You have to unbolt the brackets (Like dezert_rida said), then zip tie the wires to the knuckle, so they are out of the way. To my knowledge he has not had any issues.

Hey Mustang, How are things in the Desert? Portland has had a killer summer!
Thanks on the tip. The sensors are now ziptied to the new spindle but I will look at to zip tie it to the knuckle when I get back from my trip. Also, any news on the gears from the precision rep? I'd love to run some 4.56's...
Thanks!
