Not to be the bearer of bad news....I installed my OME kit (with the help of Toyotatech1) this evening and the 885 springs/N140S shocks rub against the sway bar. I am kinda pissed, now I have to pull it all off and figure something else out. I am not going to grind my sway bar down to squeeze these things in. I would check with OME and the place you purchased your setup to double check this prior to install, but I will know more tomorrow.

Again, I see no way this setup will work without rubbing on the sway-bar and I am not to keen on relocating or modifying it to accommodate the spring/strut setup. I guess All-Pro overcame this with an offset top bracket, OME dropped the ball here.



GSGMAC
send me an email at sales@toyteclifts.com There is a bulletin from ARB about the positioning of the lower spring seat wheh using the n140s shocks on the FJ, if it is not turned exactly in the right direction it will rub! I will send it to you

So, you have the 895 springs in the rear? Tell us the whole set-up!

Your parts have all been shipped, we ended up having to send the coils UPS air to get them to you on time! Remember when I said we would do whatever we had to do to have them there Thursday?

Re: TOYTEC Lift Installed Today

Okay, an update. Got off work at 6am, took a nap in front of install place 'til 8am when they opened. Gave 'em my FJ, went to a friends that lives close to shop, to sleep. Got FJ back about 4:30pm and had to be back to work at 6pm. So, I haven't been back to my house to download pics. Sorry. I'm going wheelin tomorrow and will post after that. Maybe monday I'll be able to get the 295 M/T's on and measure again.

But, how sweet it is. Seem huge. I'll have to take measurements to compare with my before measurements, but the shop said they got 2 1/2" in back and 4" in the front ! It will settle some, so I'll measure again in a few weeks.

The install shop speciallizes in lifts, and off-road equipt and accessories and they said this is a great set-up. The install was $315, including alignment.

Doug, ToyTec, you guys are awesome, Thanks.

Kathie
