ok then in IRO's store they offer an adjustable for 180 or a fixed for 130 the fixed says for 3.5 inch lift in one spot and fits 3 inch in another spot will a fixed work for a 3 inch lift?

 

That .5" won't matter.

 

They also have fast shipping

 

I just need to say for anyone who is looking to put a lift together. Be smart. I tried going cheap and i pretty much re did my lift 3 times in several years to get it where i want it now. Save the money get the right parts the first time around. Don't look for a lift that'll last a year.make it so it lasts several years.

 

Agreed, syco. I assembled my first one on Craigslist over a span of 6 months. The only new part was the IRO double shear track bar. I paid less than $1000 for my 3" lift, and that includes the cost of five 33x12.5 Duratracs with less than 500 miles on them.

 

Thanks guys. I'll try to reuse them and see how it goes.

 

Not everyone can get this lucky you bastard

 

Patience. And I drove two hours out of my way to get them.

 

agreed sometimes the drive is worth it... I gt myself some mtr kevlars with 75% tread on Tacoma wheels , sold the Tacoma wheels for 250 and got some dwindows off jegs for 220 with shipping... And I only paid 500 for the original set haha so 470 for 75% kevlars was definitely worth my 2 hour drive

 

Been checking craigslist for the past 3mo for tires, finally found some today, hope he's still got 'em.

 

What CV driveshaft did you go with? And if you rotate the axel to point at the TC, what do you do about the shocks? They will be rotating as well with the axel and won't line up with their mounting spots on the body?

 

The small amount it will be rotated won't effect shocks mounting points that bad, if it was you would just cut em and re weld them

 

My H&T SYE flange adapter is leaking again. Not enough to notice the fluid level drop or cause any mechanical concern but enough to make a mess and splash on the cat causing smoke. It's the type that has a thick washer at the end held in place with a C-clip. I've already taken it apart once and sealed it with RTV. I can't see any reason to ever remove the C-clip or washer so I'm planning to just weld right over the top of the C-clip to seal it. Alternate ideas are appreciated.

 

What year and what TC you have? Just curious

 

89 with 242. No clue what brand SYE because I bought it 2nd hand. Also, I'm sure it's not coming from the seal at the xfer case. It's dry there.
