    I did a 3" suspension lift on my 2005 Toyota Tacoma SR5 2WD and I still use the original rear shocks. Now I want to replace it and my question is, do I need a longer rear shocks since I lifted it? Any recomendations? Thanks in advance...
    Will this work for me....

    Just never ever go offroad, or you could get the inch longer shock or so, pretty sure its only a few bucks more per shock but i havent checked in a while. My 2" AAL wrecked a new shock with about 15k on it, meanwhile the other shock with 115k was fine :rolleyes:

    Switching to OME rears fixed that as they are longer and much beefier!
