    I can’t believe how high this thing sits ...

    It is a 3” gain right on the dot after install. I assume it will settle a bit over time?

    Shackle is set to the top at the rear.

    Looks like there may me just an ever so slight rake to it. I am happy.

    Just have to torque everything down and see if it will align with the stock UCA’s!!

    How many hours did it take you in total?
    Is that the Toytec Radflo kit?

    Well Phil I had zero experience with front end work going into it so it took me longer than normal. I had about 6 hours into the front end. Once I figured out the first side though, the second went much smoother.

    All torqued up and cleaned up.

    A little more rake than I expected. What do you guys think?
