What have you done to your 1st gen Tundra today?

I just remembered the overload leaf situation. Probably simulates a rear sway bar.
Are the front shocks new?
Most the time I've seen people only recommend deleting the front sway bar if you have decently upgraded/stiff front suspension.

 

Spot on, I've put 1200lb in the back and it just looked at me like... is that all you got? Sagged about an inch, maybe 1.5?
New 4600s up front, on one stock spring(pass) and one TRD spring(driver)/ New LCAs / new OEM LBJs

 

Wait... Why are you running two different coils?

 

Driver’s lean delete kit

 

Yesterday I used a very tiny file to ream out the brass outlets of my windshield washer spray nozzles. They work a little better but I need to buy some replacement ones that give more of a spray than a jet like the OEM ones.

 

Pickup some for the ‘05+ it’s more of a fan pattern if I recall. @The Black Mamba did a good write up on it w pics

 

accident side/was replaced with a monroe quick strut/needed a good stock spring.

Inadvertently yes
It was the ONLY junkyard coil in my area.... had to buy the whole strut assembly and break it down and stick my new 4600 in there.

 

Scheduled an alignment for the 3rd at the best alignment shop in town per @JakeJake recommendation. Wheelers AAL will be going on this weekend as well as lifting the coilovers. No rain scheduled and 83 that day. Should be fine.....

 

So took my front sway bar off over a year ago, added a rear sway bar around that time and added my bigger camper shell. Felt good but then, added Archive Garage leaf springs and U Bolt flip kit and had to remove the rear sway bar because it no longer fit with the U bolt flip.

Had that setup for over a year now and definitely get some body roll on the higher speeds, and even the lower speeds probably from the weight of the camper and camping gear, but over all felt pretty good. I think the medium duty archive springs helped alot.

Then recently added a new rear (chevy/GMC) sway bar with the repurposed end links that I made recently for a trip up the coast this weekend to a friends wedding. Whoa that rear sway made the truck feel so much more planted and took away practically all the body roll. It was good having no sway bars for a year to really get used to how that felt, and now adding just this one new variable (the rear sway bar) really let me feel the difference! Like a whole new truck on the highway

 

That's when I notice mine the most, on the highway. Especially the second I kick the wheel to hit an exit ramp, and if the exit ramp is one of those 270-degree jobs, I'm keeping it under 30mph on exit, seems to handle decently under acceleration on entry.

Remind me the details of what year rear sway you used, and what mods you had to make to get it to bolt up?

 

Exactly, the 270 degree on ramps and off ramps is where i would feel it the most. I wouldnt go too fast but the body roll would be enough to remind me to keep it slow. Now I feel like I can just zip around the offramps, haha

 

Well shit. Got everything I need to put these together but … Can’t find my f’n spring compressor. I swear I’ve torn this place up and down and not seeing shit. I refuse to use auto parts store kit, they usually have the widowmakers, and I don’t even think that style will work with the tight coil spacing in the 6112s by the look of it. #FML
