    so how come all the LT trucks have the spring under conversion? if this is such a good setup how come it doesnt come from the factory like that?

    They do it to gain up travel and less axle wrap. The 5 lug trucks come with spring under.

    spring over gives you more lift and ground clearance

    so its technically makes sense for trucks to come out of the factory with spring under but since it makes sense they wont do it haha

    It makes sense for trucks to have spring under if they need increased travel with a lower center a gravity

    It makes sense for trucks to have spring over if they need lift and ground clearance

    Two different animals.

But here's what he has to say about it:
    Sean's probably too embarassed to admit this, but the truth is - he has never even had this truck off-road. Not even once. Honestly. The guy just works/travels too damn much. So anyway, it really is in pristine condition. Please contact me by email, PM or by phone (831.423.5060). Have access to the truck and can take any pictures, answer any questions, arrange to show it, etc. Here are the specs: 2005 Tacoma SR5 V6 TRD Sport 4x4 Crew Cab 6-Foot (‘long’) Bed Front Suspension
