      Hey there, did you ever do the MP62 supercharger DIY install on the Tacoma? I'm looking for resources and having a hard time finding any. Thanks!

      I'm about to do the same lift mods as you: 3" fabtech spindles and 2" shackle. When you did the shackle did you have adjust the exhaust pipe? Seems like it might hit the shackle/leafs with the shackle being longer.

      For the spindle did you need to use new front shocks?

        Nope my exhaust cleared. You don't need different front shocks

        What about re-gearing? The purpose of getting a 5 lug mini was to have better mpg's (vs the pre-runner or 4x4). But lots of people say that after you lift it and put bigger tires, you have to re-gear or your mpg is horrible. What do you recommend? What tire size do you have? What mpg are you getting?

        Thanks so much for your help.

        I have had 235/75/15s since the lift. MPG didn't seem to change too much, although it's been so long since it was lifted I hardly remember what power or gas mileage was like with the 205s. Anymore I rarely make a trip without being way loaded down, but empty on the highway it'll get low 20s.
