ReadyLift & Toyo 285/75's.....Alignment?

Arkysaw · #1 (**permalink**) 07-07-2007, 04:09 PM

I want to thank everyone on this forum, for helping me with my Tundra decision's

Now I need your help again.

I have added the Ready Lift and Toyo 285/75R18 Open Country AT's. I will be having the alignment done Monday morning. Anyone able to give the number's needed for a post lift alignment?

I will be adding nerf bars next week....not just for looks....they are needed now

The tires are amazingly quiet for an AT tire, and the ride is still great.

Please excuse the dirty truck. I live on a dusty gravel road and it is impossible to keep the truck clean.

Your truck looks great. No need to appologize for the dirty pictures, it looks good dirty

Looks great. did you do the install yourself? I am going to get the ready lift also. Any advice would be appreciated.

No, I did not do the install. Took the mechanic about 1 1/2hrs. He said it was very easy. Readylift includes exc. step by step instructions.....with pics. As stated by others.....an alignment is necessary afterwards.

The ride is unchanged.

I would ask them to keep it within factory specs. if you want to be really accurate about it, keep everything in the middle of the factory specs and not out on the edges. I try to get more caster than what comes out of the factory as well.

Hi,

Your truck looks Great !

That size is 34.5" in diameter. Is there a clearance problem with them? The Ready-lift site says up to 33" tires. Looks like they work great with the TRD Wheels !!! I will be doing the same if I end up buying an '07.

Please get back to me

Thanks !!!

Tom

Thanks for the advice. I will suggest this, but I don't think they can reach factory spec's now that the front has been lifted. We will know tomorrow.

Thanks Tom. I am very happy with the results. I was searching for aftermarket wheels, until I installed the tires and readylift. I think the wheels are great.
The tires are actually 34.8 x 11.3. The height is not the problem, the width is. With this tire the only rub is the edge of the skid plate, and that is minimal at full lock. A slight bend took care of that, and the plate still looks stock. The only problem I have experienced is.......I need a step ladder to wash the hood and windshield. I am 5'10" and it is still a stretch with the ladder

If I had a 7' wingspan I would have no complaints

after my toytec lift i was able to get my alignment right in the factory specs, there is a lot of room for adjustment on these trucks.

I was hoping to hear that. My Tacoma had very little room for adjustment.

Looks Great ! I Knew You Would Be Happy With That Setup, Over 4000 Miles On Mine

I'm not sure everyone would like it, the truck sets up higher than it appears. I do think it should be an option.

Do you guys know if you can order a lift, that doesn't level the truck...ie gives the rear a little more lift for when I'm hualing stuff around in the back? The toytec looks as though they put an inch in the back, but is there any reason you couldn't put the 1.5 in the back?

Looks grrrrreat!
