Taco lean...what are my options?

Hey guys I have a stock 2016 TRDOR DBLCB with 265/75/16 falken wild peaks and noticed it leaning a bit in the back on the drivers side. After searching around I've noticed that this seems to be a common occurrence with the tacos. My question is what are my options to correct this? I don't exactly want to do a full lift as it is my daily driver and was wondering what products are out there and relatively inexpensive. Any help would be much appreciated!

 

Leaning on the passenger side? Isn't the taco lean usually on the drivers side because the battery and fuel tank and driver are all on the same side?

 

Correct.

 

Yup your right that's what I ment

 

Just need one of these installed on the driver's side.

The Toyota engineers designed the lean into all Tacos for one reason, and I think its in the manual; you are supposed to get a golden retriever, Irish setter or black lab to ride shotgun with you, its much better for getting rid of that Taco lean than using a shim. @09 Redneck should know this too, suprised he didnt say anything.

But if you must, a shim on the drivers front and rear is the way to do it.

 

Oh yes. Welcome to the club. We all experience it at some point.

Do what he said^^ Raising the driver side front corner will counteract it. Raise the Driver Front 1/4 and the Rear Passenger drops 1/4 essentially. Should solve your problem

 

Or, make a brain fart move and have the Taco (in my case, ‘12 OR) carry 3 treated 9”x9”x9’ solid Oak railroad ties leaned on top of the closed gate, and all 3 leaning towards the right, sticking out about 4’. Well, by the time I got home, it had a permanent lean, LOL. Surprisingly, the tailgate showed no damage. But the bed being level...never again

This problem ain’t no big thang!

 

You may have found a no shim permanent solution for taco lean, dogs get out and it's back again.

 

This!

 

Well you could just become a chubby chaser.

Not that there is anything wrong with that, but it could solved your taco lean issue.

 

A hahahaha, made it easier for them for sure. I’ll tell ya, I didn’t catch it till the next day getting off of work.

This factory lean ain’t no biggie!

 

I am about to install a 3" Rough Country Kit with upgraded front struts. Do i need or should i get both front drive strut spacer and rear shim or only front strut spacer? I wanna do it right the first time because I DO NOT want to have to put it back on the lift to add it later. Thanks for your help!

 

I have a 1/2" spacer laying around i could sell someone...

 

From where and how much you asking? Why didn't you use it?

 

i installed icon coilover lift. So just adjusted the coilover to compensate for the lean... I over bought allot of stuff when i went to do my lift... Im in lewisville tx hows 20$ sound

 

Ahhh ok, I gotcha. Which brand is it that you have? Is it the Headstrong one? I am in Cypress TX right outside of Houston. If its a good brand like Headstrong or it is Headstrong I'll take it for $20. It was never installed?

 

sent you pm

 

That’s not why Tacos lean. This myth has be debated in other threads.
