Whichever are correct for your rig. Last time I ordered,

Brembo 09.8193.81 UV Coated Front Disc Brake Rotor

$72 Brembo 09.8193.81 UV Coated Front Disc Brake Rotor

Rotor pic is misleading. Have to order x2. 1 rotor per.

Installed may 2016, no problems yet.

 

@what road @eon_blue http://www.lowrangeoffroad.com/toyo...fox-air-shocks-110179-1-kit-110180-1-kit.html

 

can i use leaf springs? lmao

 

So this does away with the leaf spring suspension setup? You'd just need to source coils/springs for the shocks then yeah?

 

Sure

 

No leafs, that kit has sir shocks so no coil overs, though you can use coil over instead.

Also need to make a cage for the top shock mount and run a fuel cell

 

for us ryan the kit is a grand. doesnt come with air shocks though. coil overs would be a better option for loads like ours lol

maybe I've been going about this all wrong this whole time lol

 

you damn well knew what i ment lol

 

im not popular lol

 

That's what I was wondering, if you do away with the leaf spring setup then how do you account for having any substantial weight in the bed...the shocks aren't going to do anything for that.

 

nope

 

Coil overs. Like how you would do it for weight up front

 

woot. independent rear suspension time lmao

 

@eon_blue though air shocks can be pumped up more to support heavier loads

 

actually yeah now that I think about it, there's a guy with a 2nd gen on here that basically turned the rear of his Tacoma into that of a 4 runner...put in a coilover setup in place of leaf springs. Not sure what the big benefit of that is, more travel with a long travel setup?

Edit...and probably a much better ride now but you lose the ability to haul/tow a lot like a regular leaf sprung pickup would I assume

More travel yeah, better articulation, better ride, better handling
With proper spring rate it can hual just as much as leafs

 

Sweet. Ive got those exact rotors just been putting off the pads. Do you re use the factory shims?

 

wtf? those rims are
