What have you done to your Tacoma today? 1st Gen Edition

I emailed them and they told me 30-60 days till it's all finalized and stuff, no price yet though.

I was just seeing anyone had anymore info.

Here is all I know about.

 

I would be a lot more interested if it was around 1.5k. I doubt it will be but I can dream.

 

Be nice if it was 1500..but it won't be. The UCA and LCA alone will be worth that or more. Add steering extensions, brake lines, and CV shafts. I still think it'll cost just as much as a 3.5'' kit. 2000-2400

 

Why so logical all the time.

 

Where can I get one?

 

Logic rules all

Yeah no doubt. Hopefully gets a bit more refined for sure.

 

If I remember right you won't have to buy new shocks.


But maybe I don't remember right

 

Just a prototype but I agree. that lower arm looks janky

 

yeah you can use stock shocks.

But you won't see massive benefit for going faster without a better shock and valved correctly.

That and you can get more travel from an extended travel coilover.

 

Janky? How?

Its built to clear rocks so it isn't a normal LCA by any means.

really the whole kit is a 4wd spindle lift.

 

Guess I shoulda said you didn't have to buy long travel shocks.

M3assman can use his OME and I can use my Kings

 

This hokey thing again?

 

@m3bassman

 

Oops

 

Janky is the wrong word. I really was thinking just unfinished. Its just a prototype so I imagine the final product will look more fit and finished

 

#widetravel


Still stuck with a factory length coilover, thus any additional travel you would get would just be because it's wider. Also increase leverage ratio on the shock being it's further away from the spindle. Curious how that plays out with valving and spring rates. I don't see the merits of this kit at all.

 

more travel but youd need to up the spring rate and valving for sure.

 

I just like the kit because its not gonna be a 3.5" kit that makes you wide as a damn Dana 60. Love the look of the total Chaos +2 on the 2nd gens. Wish they had something like that for 1st gens. Hence the reason im looking forward to this kit.

 

Obviously, we need more info, but I don't think the increase in travel/performance would be worth the cost. Get a 3.5" kit or stick with midtravel. 2nd gen +2 kits use a 8" coilover like the wider kits.

 

I'm in this boat. I think it'll cost too much..so may as well go full LT.

I have had 0 issues with fitting anywhere with my LT kit and 12.5'' wide tires.
