The shop didn’t say so, and both fronts measure the same, ground to wheel well. I have the stage 1, adjusts with clips and those adjustments are not incremental so I doubt there’s a difference to accommodate weight of driver.

There's more wiggle room than that with 255/75s, but I guess there's not with 33s.. it sure seems there's more than 1/2 inch all around in that wheel well, near shocks, etc. Then again, most rolling 33's were not ordering 255/80/17, a skinny 33. Folks seem to order 285/xx/17 to get to 33." Tire...

Confirmed on stock FX4 suspension (Firestone Destination XT C Load). I've since lifted, but 255/75/17s fit fine stock. That's a true 32" tire, btw.

I'm a member on a few of them, 99% of posts are pure vanity and aesthetics. I'm looking for outdoor activity, camping, offroad oriented focus. Suspension lifts, gear organization, maybe even towing/hauling, trip reports. Heck, even hunting, not that I'm a hunter but I'm more interested and would...

I’ve wanted a ceiling storage solution for jackets, shoes, etc. One option, sneaking in D rings to the Yakima roof tracks bottom nut connection, then connecting a cargo net. I had to remove one of these track bolts already for something else and I didn’t like ‘breaking the seal,’ so to speak...

I'll gripe about hazardous bicycling too, but per the video, any mishap here would've been the truck drivers fault. Bicyclist was 1)ahead of you, 2) clearing signaling in accordance with the law (hand signals), 3) not that he had to but the bicyclist was staring at you, attempting eye contact...

Pre-lift photo here, this is the intended use. We were out for 10 days on this trip, different spot every night. My only other truck mods, if you can call them that, are Rhino Racks and Rooftop Box, then camp gear, fridge, jackery battery. Compressor, basic recovery gear. Haven’t felt the need...

2022 Crew Cab FX4 XLT. The Eibach Stage 1 kit starts at 3” front lift and accommodates 1” rear lift, which I achieved with Icon leafs set at Option 2 (inch of lift with ~350 pounds). Purchased and installed by Khaotic 4x4 in Tacoma WA. Great customer experience. No UCAs required, per email from...

I’ve camped where super modded youtubers go in SE Oregon canyonlands with stock FX4 suspension and Firestone C Load Destination XT 255/75/17 (32”). Two Milwaukee Packout 2 drawer boxes stacked fit under my Snugtop canopy, milkcrates, plano boxes and an Iceco fridge and Jackery round it out for...

Haha, 100% correct, 68% of the time. I’m in no position to defend Eibach, however, I notice something that lends credence to their claim - they don’t sell kits that include UCAs. They sell UCAs, and they’re not budget priced, but Eibach has no marketing or tech specs suggestive of needing UCAs...

UPDATE. Eibach responded to my email inquiry, if the Pro Truck Stage 1 suspension kit needs aftermarket UCAs to accommodate the front 3" lift. I provided them all make/model details for my FX4. Their exact response, Typically at 3" of lift you are fine with the OE upper control arms. This...

Fair point, my research - hours of it, lol - suggests Eibach are more forgiving in the stiffness category and are routinely described, by customers and retailers as 'between Fox and Bilstein' for on and offroad comfort. So, I'd prefer that, pretty sure. The other kicker, the offroad shop I'm...

UPDATE 3.11.24. Eibach responded to my email inquiry, if the Pro Truck Stage 1 suspension kit needs aftermarket UCAs to accommodate the front 3" lift. Their exact response, Typically at 3" of lift you are fine with the OE upper control arms. This shouldn't matter with either the Stage 1 or...

I wish I had an answer for you. I’m 6’ 4” and comfortable with stock adjustments. Are you that much taller? Would you need more telescopic steering wheel adjustment too?

@Wes Siler did any lane keeping, collision warning or other sensors misbehave or require attention, adjustment after your lift?

I'll try to answer the original question. I pondered fuel and water storage long and hard, arriving at a setup that I've used for a couple weeks worth of camping already. 'Super Crate' oversized milk crate - google that and you'll find what I'm talking about. Interior dimensions must be 13.75" x...

FX4 owner here, replaced with yellow LEDs. Sucked. I first attempted it without removing the skid or the air dam. Wasn't happening, lol. I do remember the 'position' I had to use to get my hand behind the fog assembly - feet pointed out the front of the truck, your head and torso in the middle...

No pics but went with Malone SeaWing (with Stinger) carriers . I already had Yakima J carriers for my old Subaru but with rails atop a canopy, its just too high and awkward to get even 11' recreational kayaks up on the J styles. I'm 6'4" so not a short person. Also, the truck top is too high for...

Different rim, but its well established by me and others a 255/75/17 clears 100%, no rub. This is a true 32.” If you find the equivalent size for 18” rim you’re golden.

On week+ camping trips with some driving every day or every other, my truck bed 12v power tops off my Jackery 1500. Jackery is used primarily to power an Iceco JP50 fridge. Battery never drops below 80%. I sometimes deploy a Jackery 100 watt panel, which provides more power in direct sun than...
