I lifted my Tacoma with a full suspension from iron man. as soon I was done with the alignment, took the car for a drive to find out the car was making weird noises so I did my research and found out that if you install an icon diff drop on your car, it's more than likely to get vibration & awful sounds. I went back to the Toyota dealer, installed the original brackets & the problem was gone. if you have an icon diff drop, I would recommend getting under your car to look how your diff sits higher on the driver & the passenger side is dropped to the right height. icon is telling people that this is a 'user error' but from what i noticed the diff sits on a weird angle putting wear & making all kinds of problems. In my opinion I would just leave it without. save yourself the money & nightmare of trying to find the root of the problem.

I'm gonna say somthing that might be controversial, ever since Icon straight up lied and contintues to lie about what happened to their Tacoma's bilsteins I will not ever trust them or buy from them again. But you did the right thing, diff drops don't seem to be necessary most of the time. Check out the Tinkeres Adventures "De bro your truck" vid for more details.
