You are welcome and thank you for watching!

You’re welcome. Thanks for watching. If you do decide to try anything reach out with questions.

Yes, you should be greasing the bushings periodically. If there isnt grease going in i would first change the grease zirks as they sometimes clog.

Thank you for watching. As I have stated in several other comments, my reviews are based on user interaction and intuitiveness. Things that most people would logically do. I do understand on how the manual helps but want to give an honest reaction for an out of the box experience.

Thank you for watching. I would love to, but i have since upgraded to pods. Sorry!

So far i have heard nothing but good things as an entry level kit for an easy trail rig.

Tire rub?

@kentuckianahunter7194 none at all.

Hey! Thanks for watching. No, that is the actuator on your transfer case itself. This is when it flashes and either will not go from 2Hi to 4Hi or 4Hi to 2Hi.

Thank you for the compliment! And thank you for watching! I love your guys’ products and can’t wait to swap out the rest with all Diode!

Thanks for watching. And for the kind comment, so many people these days just want to spread hate if it’s not what they like.

You’re welcome. They lean from the factory, but it’s exaggerated after suspension lift.

Hey, thanks for watching! Did it help you fix the issue?

Thank you, and thanks for watching.

Thanks for watching! So firstly there are many different lift options, some put more stress on ball-joints than others, there are also some control arms that offer extended travel. That being said i would say firstly it would depend on what you are using the vehicle for. If its mostly highway and simple fire-road travel these would be a great way to get your alignment back within factory spec. But if you’re doing serious rock crawling and need the added flexibility then something with a heim-joint would be better but they will wear faster under typical street use. I hope this helps, feel free to ask more questions.

Thank you for watching! Yeah, i was surprised when i gained like 2/3 MPG’s switching to the hardshell tent.

Thanks for watching!

The Amber is usually just for a little added light to help cut through dust/fog/snow sometimes you can see better with just Amber instead of the white light. (And of course photo ops haha)

Glad i could help! It’s probably dirty grease in there. Reach out with any questions. Or skim the comments i know a few have been answered there as well.

Yes, it was very beautiful out there. Thank you for watching!

Dang! Wish i could help you out there, but awesome to hear you’re watching from Australia!

Happy to help.

Yes, easy to get out after the light is out (with a small magnet) but the challenge is getting them back in without dropping them.

It should depending on your height. I would say a good way to tell is leave your tailgate down and stretch out, see how you fit. The rest of it should be ok I would think.

Haha probably a true statement.

Thats a solid tip!

If you aren’t able to muscle it into place you can use a ratchet strap to aid in pulling it down. Just make sure to place your straps strategically to avoid any interference.

It was so much easier than trying to find a fuse that came on with the key. I am redoing a bunch of the wiring on the truck soon and will be adding one for sure.

I actually had to go look, it appears that they are now available on Amazon. I have had great luck with their customer service when I went directly to their website, and my code will get you a little better deal.

@azbackroadadventures how have they been for you. I'm currently running SPC but the joints giving out

@yezkaholic they have been great. The SPC with the rubber bushings will be a much higher quality. If i’m not mistaken arent their ball joints serviceable? You should check into that first, but if all else fails yes, i am still happy with these after all this time. RSO is another company that makes a great product kind of in between the two. Check them out as well.

@azbackroadadventures yeah SPC was more than helpful to summit a warranty claim but I just want to go a different route find something alignment techs can work on no issue. Due to the adjustability on these some techs just had no idea what to do. But also don't want to be chasing warranties every 10k miles. Might give these a shot the price don't seem too bad

@yezkaholic i like them for my style of driving.

That was such a pain. That part took longer than the rest of the install. Thanks for watching! be sure to check out some of our other videos.

Yeah, someone else mentioned the same and I snagged some rubber ones after. Thank you though appreciate it. Thanks for watching! be sure to check out some of our other videos.

Yeah, i was talking to the Jeep guy after that about gearing etc and found out that while we were in 4-hi he was in 4-lo with a much lower gearing also haha. But agreed, if i was building up a strictly off-road rig it would be solid axle all the way, but when i also need to do 75mph down the highway the IFS was the compromise for me. Best of both worlds in the Tacoma. Thank you for watching!

I really appreciate that! Thanks for watching! be sure to check out some of our other videos.

Now that I have a bit more insight into the different setups I agree! they are noisy for day to day use and a lot more maintenance, These ones are still going strong and do get a bit squeaky with dust, but a quick wash and lube once in a while they stay quiet.

The span is 8.5" if that helps.

My truck is an SR, so no crawl control, but i’m sure the 5.29 gears didn’t hurt. Thanks for watching!

Sorry for the delay in response. 16.75" x 12.75" outside to outside on the feet with a diameter of the foot of 1-7/8" Thanks for watching! be sure to check out some of our other videos.

Unfortunately a lot of new products are going in this direction, I would rather have something backed by a known company that stands behind their products. Thanks for watching! be sure to check out some of our other videos.

Zero rubbing, you can install this size tire on a factory truck with no rubbing. I do not have a body mount chop, and wont need one unless i go bigger, which i won’t do unless i go to like 35+”

Thanks for watching.

I am not sure what you mean in your comment, as in an update video? I have a couple update videos talking about these control arms. I would love to assist however I can if you can be more specific. Thanks for watching! be sure to check out some of our other videos.

@@azbackroadadventures We have such a product and need to shoot an installation video.

Send me a message on the AZ Backroad Adventures Instagram page and I would be happy to discuss this further. I have 2 vehicles available to shoot the video right away. instagram.com/az_backroad_adventures?igsh=bzBxeXJ1dXFwYWd4&

Thanks for the tip on the regulator, I never considered the diaphragm inside getting damaged from the heat. Thanks for watching! be sure to check out some of our other videos.

Mine is still going strong, but I would love to know (for future) if you found a suitable replacement.

@@azbackroadadventures I did! Found one on Amazon and it's been great.

Can you toss a link over?
