3rd gen Tacoma 4 to 2 inch lift

Hey guy I have 2021 Tacoma that’s lift 4in in the front and 2in in the back. I was wondering if I need to drop the diff and driveshaft. I’m open to other suggestions as well I just got into building my own off-road truck.

 

welcome
I’d start by listing exactly what parts you bought and installed, you’ll probably get more help this way.
4” is A LOT on independent suspension with drive axles.

 

I have 4 inche max trac spindles and 5100s with dobinsons on the front and old man dakars in the back with fox shocks giving me 2 inches.

 

Oh it’s a 2WD. No diff to drop sir

If you’ve got no vibrations, I would leave the driveshaft alone.

 

I can feel slight rumble when I stop and go on a hill.

 

Are you higher in the front? I think 4/3 is needed for a level look.

 

I don’t mind a level look but I just don’t want to mess up my transmission.

 

Lowering your rear driveshaft center bearing and/or adding pinion angle shims should help a lot with the vibration. You probably won't be able to 100% eliminate it, but with some trial & error, you should be able to get it to where it's almost unnoticeable (and of no threat to your transmission).

 

Very important info

 

Good to know thx for the help
