Installed new Eibach/Toytecs

Hey guys,
Installed my new shocks after 4 hours in the rain. Lol my friend said he had all the tools...I show up and they are all hand tools...lol no power, no air.
After breaking my back to get them in, she is all good to go. New Methods and 35's coming this afternoon.
I did not shim up the drivers side, and notice its about 3/4" lower...will this be a big deal moving forward? Also I can't get an alignment and CMC for another week. Will I be ok until them with some rubbing? Let me know your thoughts.

 

I recently had the Toytec/Eibach lift kit installed with Method wheels and 305/70/18 Cooper STT Pro's.
They will definitely rub. Remove the plastic pieces around the wheel well and the front mud flaps...that helps a bunch. I noticed less rubbing after I got my alignment done also.
I installed Total Chaos UCA just recently also...much smoother and very slight rubbing, but nothing compared with just the lift and wheel/tires.
G'luck!

 

Thank you for the tip! I will prob be installing Camburg uni balls as soon as I can afford them.

 

Do you have a picture of your truck?

 

Congrats!

@jgraphix73 Wow! Looks awesome, I love that colour!

What brand of canopy is that? I like the look of it...

 

Badass truck. Don’t see many that color blue.

 

Yes that's a nice color. The chrome actually goes good with it.

 

Thanks!
It's a SnugTop. It came with the truck when I bought it.
I'm having the top serviced now and I was told it was the Supersport model (older version, of course)

 

Thank you!
I agree, I haven't seen any with this color. Though it wasn't my choice of color, I couldn't complain as it is unique and secondly, it's a used truck when I bought it so no choice really

 

looking good @jgraphix73

 

Thanks @TheBeast

Sorry @Gtundra86
I didn't mean to hijack your post.

 

Well 90-95% of us got that "tundra lean" after lifting evem just an inch..mine is the same but its a signature you've done something with them original height

 

haha no worries!

 

Hey man, are these the Method MR309s? They look sweet on your truck!

 

Toytec/Eibach here as well, going on a year with them.
I was 3/4" lower DS as well.
I installed 2 Coach Builder shims after a few weeks. My truck is usually always in the driveway as I drive my Matrix to work each day, so I would see it leaving and going, I just couldn't tolerate the lean anymore.

 

this?

 

Got mine from Coach Builder. Better price, alignment marks, general consensus on here seemed to be the way to go. I agree.

 

Yes sir...thank you!

 

That looks totally sick.

 

Dude, that looks really, really, good! Greatcall on the gray methods vs black. The Blue/Gray is sweet!

My $0.02
I’d shave the Tundra, 5.7, and Limited emblems for an overly clean look.
At a minimum the Tundra.
Everyone knows it’s a Tundra lol.

 

i like the clean look too..the longer you wait to remove them the harder to polish without emblem marks ..do it

Im starting to think,, ADD A SHIM driver side is a MUST..how many install them or just preference..

 

That's a really nice looking truck. Good stance, good wheel and tire combo, great color too.

 

And he hasn’t even tinted the front windows yet. Still looks badass!

I think it helps this color is pretty rare.

 

Thanks!
Yup, that's in the works. Getting the Tundra and the 5.7 badges shaved next month. Also adding a front and rear bumper as well as All Pro sliders next month and I should be good to go for now.
Gonna see if I can add a Prinsu rack and my goal for this year is to purchase a GFC camper shell.

 

Nice!!
