Topic: '82 Toyota LWB P/U 3" SkyJacker lift install with ???'s

[Lonestar Honcho]

Needing some advice and opinions on my future 3" SkyJacker lift install.
I've been searching this site and others to see what, if anything else, I might need.

My first question has to do with the 3/8" difference in the front axle spring perches. Do y'all find it necessary to install a 3/8" spacer to the bottom of the drivers side spring pack to get a level ride? SkyJacker says their front lift springs are the same, reason for the question.

Next, has to do with binding and such from the front axle during articulation. I have read here at Marlin from a few that have experienced binding from a 4" lift but nothing from anything less. My Toyota has the stock driveline and I'm unsure I might need to install a 4 degree shim to the front.

I appreciate y'alls feedback. I've enjoyed the site thusfar and hope to further my knowledge from all you Toyota guru's.
Thanks again for the help.

your probably not gunna have enouph travel to bind any thing with the skycrapper lift if you sticking with the push pull stearing you may need a drop drag link
