    I lost track thousands of dollars ago.
    Due to an extreme lack of sales this product has been discontinued.




    Here at BAMF we have developed a shock relocation kit for your 1995 to 2004 Tacoma that allows you to run up to a 12" stroke shock and stay under the bed. We have two different sizes on the mounting width 1.25" and 1.5" with a 1/2" bolt we recommend uni ball shocks with misalignment spacers only we do not recommend rubber bushing shocks. Valving will depend on the angle you mount your shocks talk with your shock dealer about your set up.

    To get the most flex out of your rear suspension you need to run longer shocks the stock mounting points wont allow it. This kit allows that without having to cut holes in your bed to do so.
    The kit moves both shocks to the rear of the axle the only modification before welding the crossmember on is the rear upper shock mount needs to be removed before welding the plates on. A Ubolt flip kit is recommended to gain more ground clearance. (That we have in the works as well)

    Specs
    Upper Crossmember and lower mounts are CNC cut & formed from 1/4" plate this is the strongest relocation kit on a market.

    By moving the shock up towards vertical, will that change the length of the shocks?

    So I can assume that 60062 OME rears will not work with this set up? I am planning on collecting what I may need so I can buy this as soon as its released.

    I wouldn't use rubber bushing shocks on this mount. I would go with FOX or KING or anything with uni ball misalignment.
