    Nice video. I'm not doing a big lift like that. I'm just going to put a 1-in front spacer and replace the torsion bar end links. But I would like to add a 1/2-in spacer to the rear. Do you know who makes just a 1/2-in spacer? I can probably just use a coil compressor manually pull down that coil and put the spacer in without dropping any subframe. Thank you!

    Thanks for the response. I know they're out there. I've seen them on other kits. I know Subaru has mild leveling kits. But I already did the front spacer so it's not a radical difference. It is pretty level. I just think that if I ever loaded up I might have a little tail drag. But I'm probably just going to wait until the new Bilstein terra sport shocks and struts come out for this model year. Thank you

    If I remember correctly, the instructions have alignment specs, but really, there is only a front and rear toe adjustment. You can slightly adjust the camber with front shock towers.

    Thanks drew, Followed your video and it took me about 5 hours with jack stands and floor jacks. Those sway bar links were tricky. I noticed that on the left front the bolts for the lower strut mount were reversed (Head and nut) is there a reason for that? Do you have the specs for the tork on the rear cradle bolts? Is the alignment completly nesasary after this install? I did not remove the tire rods. Thanks for your video it was a great guide for me. Really appriciate it.

    Thanks for the comments. The front strut bolts can go in either way, but from the factory, they are facing different directions. I'm not sure the reason. For the torque, I would have to look it up. I want to say it was around 90ft lbs. I recommend an alignment because you are changing all the angles.

    I looked and didn't see any common issues for a rav 4 vibration at lower speeds. If you are doing a normal driving slow acceleration, it is possibly a torque converter shudder. Torque converter shudders are usually felt at normal acceleration between 18mph and 35mph. If there is an issue.

    Did the original struts have cam bolts? I also have a 21 XLE. I just bought these. Im grabbing cam bolts in case the rav doesn't have them. Once you lift 2 in up.. it angles things. Cam needs adjusted along with the caster and toe. I've had toyotas in the past that could only adjust toe and caster. If i wanted to fix camber, i needed the cam kit. Just like dude who lower cars and their cam sets the upper part of the tire in.. rasing it does the opposite. Might be just enough out. I guess i will find out myself and i of course will have it aligned. Im hearing 50/50 about vibration on ALL lift kits with the 5th gen. The only thing making sense is either people arent aligning them, getting longer stab links or getting cam bolt if there arent any.
