    3” lift, black step bars, aftermarket wheels, LT305/55R20 was this way when I brought it.
    Question: my brother in law 2010 Tundra with 110K miles is leaking grease from the front boots, Dealership blamed it on the leveling kit, is there any truth to that I have a 2015 with the same hoping I don’t have the same problem later.

    Very possible. Both boots a huge indicator of something gone awry...

    I'm not liking how mine are flexed due to lift kit, I'm sure some day it'll happen

    Full lock will cause pressure spikes. Next to go out may be the steering rack.

    110k? Doesn't seem low to me.

    On my old 4r, they split at 140k and that was stock. They do go after a while
