1st Gen Tacoma 12" OSR Outboard Shock Relocation - Outside Frame Rails

Any updates from the testers?

 

@Anthony250

 

Hopefully my kit is installed within the next couple weeks I still am waiting on a few parts like ubolt flip kit and what not to arrive.

 

I wish he'd just start selling the kits. I may need to order a set of 12s and that's 3 to 4 weeks out so the longer I wait for shock mounts the longer I have to wait for shocks.

 

I ordered mine from accutune with a custom tune and they arrived in 2 days just no discounts as they custom tune

 

Kings?

 

Yes sir king 2.5x12 about 899 tuned and shipped

 

Dang. Dsm is 795 before tax.

 

That's because of the sale price they may also give a tw discount on top of that. I decided to go with accutune instead since there 10 minutes from me if I have any issues or need a rebuild I can have them done by the same people. I also spoke with the owner on the phone and was very happy with the support.

 

That makes sense, I have no dealers near me. Yea they do give tw discount.

 

I know that they do but I'm not sure if they honor it with sale prices.

 

I'll start selling them. I think I may switch to 1 bolt hole in the tower so it centers the shock in the tower. That means smooth body shock only, remote reservoir.

 

So bypasses then?
I was considering a 2 or 3 tube bypass for some greater adjustability.

 

No he means smooth body shocks for the final kit. If someone ends up wanting a bypass I'd think he can put the hole in a different place for special order

 

So no bypasses then if I revise it. I really think a 2.5" smooth body is adequate on these 1st gens, especially with compression adjuster.

I didn't even say a bypass will fit for sure in first batch, it's a risk tester would have to take

 

I bet the compression adjuster would be fine but it's only a little more for a 2 tube bypass.

Either way two holes or one I just want a good set of shock towers.

 

Ordering open, I think the kit is working well enough

 

eric thank you so much this kit is amazing. best thing i’ve bought for my tacoma yet!

 

Thanks Erik, thanks for the pictures
