    I saw a post awhile back about someone who built a lower ball mount bracket that moves the hole for the ball joint a little forward to bring the suspension on a 2nd gen taco forward.

    I've been searching but can't find it anywhere. I have an interest in it since it'll help with wheel well clearance.

    I've seen that, I believe it replaces the whole lower cross members only. What I'm trying to find is just a custom built ball joint mount bracket that relocates the ball joint hole a little more forward.
