ARB MT64 top hat. The picture above of the integrated top hat is the same shock. You really cant tell there is play in it until it is loaded up by the weight of the truck. How I tell there is play outside of hearing it going down the road is to grab the control arm and pull it towards myself...

39 inches in the front, measured from the ground through the center of the hub to the bottom of the fender
40 inches in the rear measures the same way as the front.

I'm asking my mechanic at the dealer to look into this. I had the TRD Pro mid pipe with Trailhunter axel dump installed. I never was told about the file.
Just to share...I changed back to the old exhaust past the mid pipe because the axle dump was burning and melting the paint on the diff...
Yes, its fixed. They had to take it apart and reseal it. Apparently, there are two covers. It was leaking around the front cover. Didn't have to replace the coolant but did get an oil change.
As far as the dealer experience, it was good. They gave me a Tundra to drive for the week.
