Figured Id post in this thread seeing as its the most recent one about this kit. I just recieved these guessets and I was under the belief that all 8 steering stops were included? I just dont see the sense in supplying plates for only the top face of the steering stops. I am going to be putting shock hoops on the frame as well and does anybody have a good rule of thumb for aligning upper and lower shock mounts from scratch? Such as castering the lower mounts back to align it to the springs path of movement, also would it be wise to install my shock mounts after i move my axle forward 3" or is it not important?

yes wait till you move your axle before you weld your hoops on. or else it will be 3" off.

Aaron,

to our support forums Yes, you should have received 8 total so we will get the missing 4 stops in the mail today, hopefully you're get them by Wednesday!

Happy Holidays,

Awesome, thanks guys. Im not new to this Toyota thing, I do my research and ask questions whenever possible. I am about to do ALOT of custom fabrication on my truck and am confident in my fab knowledge and welding skills. Its just the lack of experience "building trucks" and the neat tricks you learn from it along the way that is going to make this whole process harder.
