    hello guys,
    im still new here to the forum and i search but couldnt find anything on what goes here, please help.

    first off i just want to say my truck is a (RWD 4X2) and i just got my truck lifted this past weekend and the brand i went with is (Superlift 6" lift kit) and while i was inspecting the truck i saw this bracket with a missing nut and bolt. (ill post some pictures with arrows pointing), and it seems im also missing a piece that goes along with it the black bracket. the missing pieces are located on the driver side. (left)

    im not sure if its because my truck is not a 4X4 thats why that part is not needed?
    (see pictures attached). btw the alignment on the truck is also slightly pulling to the right, im not sure if this is what causing that too?

    please help, thanks in advanced.tundra rear diff bracket.jpg rear diff bracket1.jpg rear diff bracket2.jpg rear diff braket3.jpg

    You don't have a front differential so you won't have the brackets to mount the differential to the frame.

    I'd love to help, but I'm not (and probably many others) familiar with SuperLift.
    It looks like the instructions are for a 4WD since it mentions the front differential - which you do not have.
    My guess (not educated keep in mind LOL) would be that the bolt that goes through that hole holds the front differential bracket in place.
    Since you don't have a front diff, it's left empty with no bolt.

    On your alignment - take it back ASAP if it's not tracking straight. The longer you wait the less likely the shop will warranty their work I would imagine.

    thanks guys.
    i actually took it back for the follow up yesterday and i mentioned about the alignment pulling right and he said he'll get it fix. while driving back home it seems like its still the same. i call back today and one of the shop guy told me he'll try and contact superlift about this alignment situation? which confuses me, shouldn't they take care of this themselves? :frusty: :notsure:
