I installed 1.5" spacers from Mammoth.

Done. Happy with the overall look. Going to install a 2" level kit. I don't drive this Root Beer Metallic truck too often so I'm not worried about off road performance or whatever.

Don't forget to re torque them!

That looks like something I need!
 
Along with upper & lower control arms, ball joints and struts I purchased 4 of these for the old Tundra.

G, do you already install the control arms etc?

I usually do Front axles and wheel bearings at that time on those also...

26 year old truck….
I should go back I suppose
 
Not worth it at this point as then they will have to redo a lot of the work they just did. It's just one of those things that makes sense to do while you have the other stuff apart.
If it's good enough for now don't worry about it till it goes bad
 
The old rear wheel on my BMW ST got bent a tiny bit hitting a pothole some time in the last few years; the wheel was slightly out of true but one would not notice it riding it.

Got a new used one for an incredible $96 that was straight and true so what to do with the old one?

Made an outdoor table for some friends that have a sitting area overlooking Franz Valley and it will sit outside of their massive barn.

They aren't motorcyclists but i think they'll like it.

$50 table from Amazon and $50 thick glass top from Home Depot.

Not the stand, the extended handle. Getting Tatanka (XR1200) onto the stand was damn near impossible, plus SWMBO was tired of coming out to the garage every time I needed to install or remove the stand under the bike.

Nice, I put some Yokohama ADVAN A052s on the 94 Miata in 195/50-15 size and they have ridiculous grip for the street.

Chances of kicking out the rear in the dry are exactly zero.
