    I weighed my truck at a cat scale (8k lbs total weight). Jeff took my rear axle weight and made "perfect" packs for my weight. He is basing all the V420 packs off of my numbers. Everyone I have seen so far, bruce warren dave joon, all have a higher lift than I do because they dont weigh as much as me. Im a little jealous of their ride height haha but when I'm fully loaded (4k lbs on the rear axle), I have exactly 8" uptravel 9" down travel and it rides beautifully.

    Call Jeff and ask him if he will make you MT 3" leaf packs. If he says he will, before you pay him, Bruce and I will get on the phone with you and make sure we're all on the same page.

    no, you adjust the tundra lean by adding slightly more preload on the driverside front coilover

    This is so cool. Throw down dice on $40k purpose-built upgrades, and worry later about whether you can park it inside. OG rollin’ right there.

    I'm in. Just unsure at this point whether to LT or MT the rear. Once the TC LT front end kit is in, I'll have a better idea.

    You'll want the rear to keep up with the front IMO.

    Learn from all of us who have gone through the process from MT to LT.
    If you have the slightest idea you want LT rear just do it. Even if you don’t do it anyway. Hahaha

    You know what I was just looking and I really don’t have any good pics. I need to take more pics when I’m wheeling. Here’s a couple22CDE8D6-6BE6-4C4D-A3F0-6808AA10BCBF.jpg79939913-194C-4390-BE61-39CD9C1C3256.jpg81FE626A-9496-4A39-BA9C-F88E7BA1E989.jpg
    Hopefully I’ll have my rear setup done in a month or so.

    Really nice truck, thought about buying it but 2wd.
    It’s a short course 4 link. I asked about something like that but it’s not good for us. If I recall correctly the way the pinion moves or doesn’t.

    Reverse 4 link? Every logical thing that happens when you manipulate your truck is now in reverse.

    The truck is now pushing the axle vs pulling on it. Braking will squat it and accelerating will cause the rear end to raise up.
