so why do you criss cross the tires when you rotate them?

Use the safety chains!

But does this work without the lights on? Or maybe it would with a relais?

This has nothing to do with the video by the way the video was very well made, what I can't understand is why the people making the ball joint spacer don't machine the ball joint spacer to fit without cutting away the vehicle's upper arm...

You are smart my Man

Do you need to swap control arms to fit the lifted shock?

very helpful thank you

The way these grills attach is different depending on years and trim. Some have these wedge shaped clips. Seems there are three different designs. Would have made too much damn sense to have just one design...

Best mt tires so far i ve owner

You don’t know why anyone would need to put one on? Never have been a field tech have ya lol

Do not put LED in a halogen housing ffs. Just read up on installing h9 halogen for twice the lumens. This guy is a noron

What does adding an extra leaf do?

I am new to Ham/CB radio and am checking it out. My Dad always maintained a CB radio in our family camper. A base station at home with a huge antenna on top of our home. My Dad was also a Ham operator. He was also chief engineer for AT&T. He passed in 09 with a mind sharp as a tac. All of these is over my head. So feel as if I am jumping into the deep end of the pool not knowing how to swim.

Need the information to buy right away

Basically the same setup as factory... Still has a resonator on it to make it quiet

lol lifting the suspension or lifting the tire ,,,,, SAME F ING THING

Great vid! Curious is the SPCs will interfere or rub with a 265/70/17? Same coilovers, same height adjustment.. thanks

Subbed, thanks

Dude you saved the shit out of me!--Driving home I had the "A/T Temp" light, "Battery" light, and "Parking" brake light all come on at the same time. Every YT video I watched said it was alternator, even the Yota forums said the same--changed alternator and all i got was battery light on dashboard--saw this video, (and with help from an old timer at Advance) which he actually pulled up on his computer at the store gave me just what I needed. You nailed it, THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!---89" Yota 159k--Forever grateful!

Thank you for the video.. May I know the purchase coordinates?

what is the pressure rating of the gas strut and what is the overall lenght when extended?

Offset, tire width

Do both…

I have a 2002 dual cab lux, 2inch body lift, 5inch extended shackles. I am going to lower the torsion bars as much as I can to clear the tyres. The ride with the torsion bars wound up as high as you can gives you the worst ride possible, it's like driving a tractor with no suspension over logs. I just fitted a 2inch lift kit hoping it would be lower and drive smoother. The rear shackles are now 2inch instead of the 5inch extended shackles I had on it. I took it in for a wheel alignment with my advice to lower the front end but the dumb shits raised the torsion bars.

Would have been nice to see the after shot of heating and rolling the liner.

My winch got stuck and after trying multiple unsuccessful ways of unstucking it I followed what you did and it worked. Amazing. Also, I like how the video goes straight to the point. Thanks.

Hello my friend when is the new update coming in?❤❤❤❤

You are genius! The ten rotations really helps take inconsistency out of the equation. Worked front and rear on my 12 Silverado w trutrac rear and open diff front.

I'm considering this done at a mechanic store, how much should this likely cost, if done at a shop? parts and work, basically stop-in-pay and drive-out. I would be more than thrilled to have you do it, but I'm in Orange County, CA

Can you link to the tools used?

I have a clean 1990 black 2wd want to convert her to 4wd so bad

Depending on the chemical make up of your locktite, it can and will damage plastic. Definitely would not recommend adding loctite to fasteners securing into plastic.

$600

I searched front seal and started watching this video. About had a heart attack until I realized it's for the rear lol

5 years later…how did the raw aluminum hold up?

Does it balance/level out with the rear?

How many miles were on the truck when you did this? I’m doing the same front on my truck. For the rear I’m trying to decide between add-a-leaf and a replacement leaf pack.

Good morning! This is the best video about tire deflator! The camera position showed the entire process clearly and sufficiently for understanding and the explanations were perfect. Very didactic.

Man thank you so much I followed everything and now I'm back on the road 🤟🤟🤟🤟 you really helped me

I think there’s something missing from the wheelbase, and, by association, track width discussion. That is suspension and drive train packaging. If an axle is narrow in proportion to the frame, it’s hard to package the suspension and steering with good performance and tight steering angles. Same goes for length. It’s harder to package long arms, flex tolerant drive shafts, doublers, etc into a short frames. The proportions of these parts don’t scale linearly with vehicle size. So, when you get a little bigger with similar length transfer cases etc, it gets easier to make everything work well with reasonable angles. As a personal example, I mocked up a 61” wms to wms Dana 44 and decided it was going to cause a compromise steering or suspension, if not both. I switched to a 67” housing that gave me enough space for long links and coil springs without having tires trying to fight stuff for space. Wheelbase has the same compromises around shaft angles and link mounting. If you have a little length, it’s easier to get anti properties right and keep the u-joints alive. I’m not necessarily convinced that there’s even a steering advantage in smaller length variations - at least when RCVs may be involved. A little extra length to get the geometry right and clear out the wheel well may allow a tighter steering angle with good suspension geometry. Clearly, these trade offs are very vehicle specific, but I frequently see great results in both custom suspensions and good OEM designs like an FJ80 when there was a little length to work with.

Interesting observation, I generally agree. I personally like a hair over the golden zone - so long as you’ve got the break over angle. My FJ80 on about 3” of lift and 35s (112” wb iirc) felt like it flowed over terrain with better stability than most shorter wheelbase vehicles. Same for an extended cab 2500hd whenever break over angle wasn’t a problem. In general, I’ve found that I don’t need as extreme of proportions on a little wider and longer vehicle. Yeah, breakover angle suffers, but an improvement in the absolute clearance usually makes up for it in most places I wheel. The result is that the slightly longer and probably wider vehicle has more balanced proportions and feels more stable. I’m not saying go huge, just that there’s something to be said for a little bit bigger footprint that’s running a few tire sizes larger, and has a couple extra inches under the skid plates, but has a proportionately lower center of gravity.

Is a new uca necessary for a 2.5 lift?

1:36 always park in gear.

Not sure why RCI refuses to make the front skid go all the way to the plastic piece that connects to the bumper like the TRD and OEM SR5. They leave that gap exposing your radiator etc to salt, mud, water and everything else. They used to make a piece for that gap ($60 extra) but it disappeared from their website. It's only a couple/few inches.

Subbed!!!!

According to the break over calculator online with 109" wheelbase and 21" of ride height it's actually 42 degrees

Isn’t this what the tailgate does?

Widdle wadder it case it wain?

Watch out your ball joints

The rear spacers are tapered, did you install them correctly and just not mention that in the video?
