00-06 Tundra 4wd Long Travel 4340 Axles
To retain 4wd after installing a TC Tundra long travel kit, TOTAL CHAOS offers these custom extended 4340 axle shafts. These axles are machined out of 4340 material and are heat treated and plated. The axles are exactly 3 1/2” longer than the factory axles to match the added width of the TC long travel system. They will allow for the full 13” of wheel travel that the TC long travel kit provides. The axles must be inserted into the factory inner and outer CV joints prior to installation. TC includes high angle inner CV boots and clamps with the axles. Applications include any 00-06 Tundra 4wd equipped with the TC long travel suspension system.

All you 4wd guys need for a long travel kit is these. given this is the toyota equivelent. my 2wd long travel kit is the same thing for 4wd truck except you would need longer, beffier axles. which are real easy to do. no need for these cheaply built flat plate diff drops.

Are you talking about the rear sway bar?

Are they looking for a truck to test the lift or just to measure it? Coldwater is an hour and a half or so drive from me.

we only got about 16" with 2-3' drifts. It sounds like first they want to look at it to see how bad it would be to make a lift. Then i would assume the test fit truck would get a hella discount and they usually do free labor. I emailed him so we will find out for sure
