Here is a thread were members posted info on their lifts, castor and drive shafts.
Also with the installation of lifts, noises and grinding can occur due to the different pinion angles.

Using the Vehicle Computer Codes to help Diagnose problems
If you have a 96 or newer vehicle you have an OBDII diagnostic port. You can eitehr buy a code reader or got to one of the many autoparts stores that will pull the code for you. The code will then tell you what the computer has logged as a fault. The nice thing about OBDII, is the code reader will work on ALL vehicles made 1996 and up.

If you have a 91-95 Land Cruiser, you can still pull the code with the paperclip method:

Go to this link for a discussion on it

In addition, you can pull the TCM code. A TCM code is where your o/d light is flashing and pertains directly to the transmission only
Originally Posted by semlin

2. switch the o/d button on
2. go to the DTC output box on the fireall of the engine (small black plastic box with a pop up lid which may be labelled "DLC1". lift the lid. You should see two small grids of 3x3 contacts and the inside of the lid should have a label code. identify the E1 and TT contacts.
3. turn ignition on
4. go back to the DLC box and insert one end of the paper clip in the E1 hole and one end in the TT hole. BE CAREFUL AND DO NOT GUESS ON THIS. If you don't have ther label code post up in the forum
5. go back inside and watch the o/d light flash pattern.
if it blinks continually in 2 second intervals you no longer have a problem so just pull the 10 amp dome fuse to clear the code
6. otherwise count the flashes to get a 2 digit code. the flash sequences are sapareted by a 1.5 second pause. If there are 2 codes there will be a 2.5 second pause between each fresh code.
7. remove the paper clip. turn truck off.
8. post your codes in the forum or look up in the FSM to decipher.
