When I called in early January Mike suggested that the spindle might be ready in mid-January but I didn't think to ask if it would be combo'ed with as the deluxe kit with the 2/5.
Until then... or if you call let us know.

Fins I was going to ask your opinion on your Nitto Tires are they firm riding tires ? I almost went with Nitto Tires today since the guy at my tire shop has them on his Tundra and they looked very good. I went back to the Michelin Ltx Today since he gave me a price break of $100.00 on new Ltx. I was back and fourth between Nitto and Michelin Ltx but since I know how well my Original Michelin Ltx lasted I just couldn't mess with a good thing

Your truck looks great! I have a 2008 4x4 with stock 20" alloy rims and stock 275/55/20 tires. I love the feel/ performance of my current setup , but don't like the look of the huge wheel well openings compared to the tires. Would I be able to lower mine with the same kit and still use the stock tires and wheels?
woops,
I should have checked McGaughy's website before I asked you... Looks like they only do 4x2 Tundras, unless you or others know something I don't. It's probably not a good idea to lower a 4x4, but your truck looks killer and I don't do much offroading.

Not a good ideal is correct to lower a 4wd but if you don't use it then might suit your need's just fine . I've seen a few 4wd lowered but lossing some ground clearance when you do this
I would love to see someone add 20 inch wheel's on a Highlander hybrid which by the way might have decent 4wd but can't do serious off roading because of the batterie (batteries not included )

Erik, the only experience I have with Nittos prior to buying these were from the few Infiniti FX owners that ran them and they seemed very pleased. My opinion on the 420S so far is that it's a sticky tire that rides quiet and smooth. I had to play with tire pressure a bit. Bit 38-40 lbs seem to be the perfect range. Plus tread pattern is pretty freakin' radical.

Jeff, you could try running 22-24" wheel package with taller, meatier A/T tires to help fill out those wells. I've seen a couple on the this forum that have done that and they look well-balanced. Good luck!

SOS makes a kit for 4wd trucks. Northface just put it in and I would like to soon but I don't want to pony up the coin just yet.
