    No. I tried a set for the tundra. The top fits. The bottom is way to big

    It's less Tacoma and more mod
    Measure the travel from eye to stem center. Fully drooped and fully compressed (add a bit for bumpstop compression). Then look up what those shocks are compressed and extended.

    That’s no easy task with how the originals are mounted. You need to relocate the mounts top and bottom

    The eye at the bottom physically won’t fit the older axles without custom mounts welded on

    Everything but the driveshaft. B03A - 410
    All new genuine Aisan injectors from Rock Auto for $77.79 each before the 5% discount. I've been completely satisfied with them. Since they are new, I don't need to worry about coil failures on injectors that are old enough to vote.

    https://www.rockauto.com/en/moreinfo.php?pk=881747&cc=1357589&jsn=2168

    I'm curious about LCE requesting OLD injector cores if they are selling new injectors? At first glance, it looks like serviced and tested injectors. Are they new? Are they authentic? I can't tell what they are selling. I had my counterfeits flow tested before I installed them. I found two under performers that caused me to buy the initial two Intermotors. I threw the under performers in the garbage and moved on.

    https://www.lceperformance.com/5VZ-V6-Equalized-Fuel-Injector-Set-99-04-p/1062211.htm

    This is some interesting information from Motor West below. I read this and said to myself. Why hell yes coils fail on 20 year old brown injectors. They fail on any injector that is old enough to vote. I guess they sold a number of serviced brown injectors that failed due to old coils. Go figure.

    Since there are so many brown counterfeit injectors flooding the market coupled with a number of the old ones being over 18 years, I think we may see service companies just condemn all brown injectors. Its mind boggling with all the counterfeit product out there.

    For all new and improved Denso injectors that are refurbished, I don't find them listed on the Denso site.
