    Thank you so much for making this video definitely was a visual aid when installing the 3.5 kit... But for future reference it would be nice to have torque specs... Final note installing the front shocks the way you stated in the video I wound up scratching the s*** out of my shock absorber..😡🤬😡 I found it best to install it top first then pry the bottom in... I'VE WATCHED THIS VIDEO ABOUT 20 TO 30 TIMES AND DOING SO HELP ME COME UP WITH A GAME PLAN FOR A ONE-MAN INSTALL... Anyway thanks again for the VIDEO VERY HELPFUL...☺️

    I was wondering if you have any suggestions. I have a 2010 toyota tacoma, i plan on adding a winch bumper and 255 80 r17. I dont need a fancy off road kit, figure i need about 3" to 4" lift to account for the drop from the bumper and to clear the tires. Thank you for any recommendations and the content.

    Did you have any issues with the rear passenger shock aligning in the top bushing hole? My rear shock is too wide at the top to fit properly in the rear passenger side. It doesn’t line up in the center of the hole, the shock body hits the frame. The rear driver side fit perfectly. And also, I didn’t get any reservoir bracket hardware for either rear shock in my kit.

      Mine is too but i think they mounted the bushings wrong as i followed these instructions.. if you look at jesse rizos video he did it vise versa and it looks like that nipple bushing and nipple washer acts like a spacer and gives it a lil more clearance. Will try tomorrow

    Just had this 3.5” lift installed on my 2016 Tacoma Sport, along with 285/70/R17 tires. However, now anytime I make a sharp left or right turn and accelerate during the turn, my Slip Indicator light/VSC turns on and sometimes engages the ABS. Took it to the Toyota dealership to fix the problem. They calibrated the steering angle sensor and the yaw sensor. It seemed to fix the issue for a day or 2. But now it’s doing it again. Any advice/suggestions on how I can fix this?

    One Detail to keep in mind on a 2nd Gen Install you will need a sway bar relocation kit for the stock sway bar. It will hit the bottom of the strut once the vehicle squats. Only with the Vertex adjustable Strut.

    Funny how product manufactures make everything look so easy, this video would’ve actually been helpful if they had shown the install step-by-step, and all the headaches that go along with it. For example, getting that upper control arm out and itself is a complete pain in the butt but they don’t show you is that you have to bend the sheet metal next to the frame to be able to get the bolt out.
