just binge read this whole thread, so what key things I gathered I might have already forgotten. This thread is also 8 years of trial and error so its a bit difficult to confirm what would be absolute for my setup.
2018 base model, friend of mine has a 2020 tundra trd pro, so I have the oppurtunity to take his wheels, front coilovers (trd pro fox) and uca.
gonna source out the oem tundra lca, axles and tie rod ends. Probably gonna stay with a "modest" 285/70/18 tire.
it seems like endlink and lower shock mount bolt are case to case issues. Besides those 2 things I feel like I can expect a smooth setup (relatively speaking) anything else I might need to know or expect?

Personally, I did the kdss relocation, although you may have a Lexus so it wouldn’t be applicable
i didnt clarify, 2018 LC base model
Interesting... any particular reason? The tundra arms move the tire further out, so the relocation is even less necessary (even at full lock).
Thank you... it was the 35s part I was missing. I was running 34s and was okay, so didn't put that together.
What year range on Tundra parts? Have a 2010 LX.
Anybody have alignment specs they can share? My car is going to get an alignment soon.
I tried lookin but there were so many specs, I wasn’t sure if it pertained to the 200 series with the tundra IfS because the wheel and tire difference as well
I’ve also noticed people with bud built skid plates having to trim or cut. Wasn’t sure if there was an option that didn’t require trimming besides oem (my car didn’t come with it); either arb, slee?

I have a hard copy of this paragraph, and the SPC instructions for dialing in alignment with adjustable arms. I drop it off with my keys when I get alignments done. Been pretty good to handling and tire wear.
So.......here's what I recommend.
STOCK TRUCKS:
Camber: +.1 degree camber on both sides.
Caster: As much as possible without sacrificing +.1 degree camber or causing a cross caster pull.
Toe: +.12 degrees per side for a total toe of +.24 degrees. (some guys have had to drop toe to +.04 to +.5 per side/+.08 to +.10 total toe)
LIFTED TRUCKS:
Same As Above ... BUT if you have wheels that have more negative offset than foctory wheels, increase the camber to +.2 degrees. (or even +.3 degrees if they just can't get there with the amount of adjustment allowed by the eccentrics) Adjustable upper control arms are available for cases where there just isn't enough adjustment left in the eccentrics to get a decent alignment. Although they are expensive, most guys with lifts have a lot of $$$ invested in tires so you need to make a judgement call.

Dissent skid plates have no interference with a Tundra swap, even under full articulation in the field.

Thank for the quick replies. God why’s the dissent skids so expensive!!!
I have ARB skids and zero interference with Tundra parts.
That’s great to hear because they are significantly cheaper. I get it, you get what you pay for but I also don’t rock crawl or anything to warrant such things. Thanks for the confirmation

No issues with my skids and Tundra suspension too.
You have the ARB skids?
