    Yea I saw that. I guess it is pretty much the same thing. When I think about it, it can't be that much different!

    It's a 2nd gen but doubt there is much difference for 1st gen.
    It's done by :bowdown:chris4x4:bowdown: so you know it's good info.

    http://www.tacomaworld.com/forum/suspension/54186-aal-install-second-gen.html

    You can pm :bowdown:chris4x4:bowdown: and ask him about any difference for 1st gen.

    Well the rear shackles are different as are the shock mounts.

    I can do them now without pulling the springs out, just need a couple decent "C" clamps...;)
