^Your front shocks seized up?

 

Nah, I let some Russian dude put new springs in.... Dunno why I've heard the angle grinder running for about 45 min tho

 

Does anyone have a spare (working) passenger caliper kicking around?

 

^I got one. It was working when I removed it in 2021 for upgrades.

 

@Norilsk the one you gave me is passenger or driver?

 

Can I buy it and pick it up from you?

 

^Yes I sent you a PM.

 

I can't remember, take a look at it, but it could be passenger too. Mine is rebuilt tho, by me

 

dose anyone know if 2-3" lifted coilovers meant for a 4runner work on a 3rd gen tacoma.

 

Depends on year of the 4Runner and if it has kds if I recall. @3JOH22A can you confirm?

 

the 4runner lifted shocks are actually longer ( EXTENDED LENGTH 22.48 COMPRESSED LENGTH 17.19)
then the Tacoma's 2-3" lifted shocks from the same manufacture ( EXTENDED LENGTH 21.87 COMPRESSED LENGTH 16.64)

 

and they are non kdss i think because its 04-25 4runner and kdss came out in 2010 on the 4runner

 

What shocks are they? May be able to cross reference.

 

For reference this is a fox 2.5 shock for a third gens collapsed and extended



Should be able to adjust the bump zone to make up for the extra .25 of bunp you’ll get if needed.

these would be the shocks

 

Apparently they may not be valved for a Tacoma but should bolt up.

This guy was wondering the same thing. Again just make sure. May be able to contact fox or a fox distributer to confirm. I would assume it’s the valving is not set for a Tacoma.

 

i just called fox and the lady told me both top and bottom are different then called again and the guy said they will bolt right up and they are just valved differently

 

would the valving make much a difference? i don't know much about shocks but i can get them 1/6 of the price of the tacoma ones

 

My extended shocks are 17.75/22.394" and they definitely fit because they're on now.
