    Here is a shot we can talk about.

    I'm curious how much of the suspension is carried over, or rather how fast will OME and ICON engineer a kit??

    So it would seem. Toyota seems to practice the "if it ain't broke don't fix it" method, which I can appreciate. No reason for them to reinvent the wheel, when they have a proven reliable setup in my opinion. I mean sure some valve changes to soften the factory ride would be ideal for some, but my 2008 DCSB SPORT rode just fine, even with 33 inch BFGs. Even better with the OME kit though......

    If you think Tacomaworld crowd made too much fun of Seatbelt bracket Mike.. check out comments on Jalopnik

    http://truckyeah.jalopnik.com/watch-the-2016-toyota-tacoma-rescue-itself-with-new-cra-1723352342

    Drum brakes on 2016 truck is very stupid idea. Majority of people know this.
    Seatbelt bracket Mike should have kept his mouth shut, but he opened it and made the fool of himself.
    Its just one more thing now for Toyota competition to point out...

    Is someone looking for Tacoma suspension pictures, because I took a few off the 2016 I was in. The suspension mounts appear the same but the shocks have changed a bit:
