My o2 taco TRD

So this is my 02 tacoma pre-runner, trd. 2wd, this is when i first got it
When i first got it, it had 154k miles on it, and it had fabtech coils, very old, so i replaced them with new fabtech co's dirtlogics 2.5 i also added 4 kc's and a light bar, and a flowmaster, pipe comes out thru the cab.
couple months later i added some pro comp co's in the rear, had some mounts made for them and installed them.
After having a semi mid travel up front and rear i decided to go front LT with the engage 2nd gen kit. Bought it from a member and installed that. After the Lt i decided to go rear LT and had LSK do my rear. Bought some bilstein 17in smooth bodies, bought my 50T pack from tcyota, a member on DR. So worked my way up pretty quick, stoked to test the truck. Does pretty well, just need some valving. This past september i purchased fully fabricated spindles from SOLO MOTORSPORTS and now im 7inches wide per side. No big deal.
Thanks for looking tw

 

this is in baja at the Mexican Logistics 300, sponsored by tavo vildosola

 

this were the fabtechs that were installed when i bought the taco, they were sooo shot! lol

 

and these are the new ones

 

Sweet! Which Flowmaster is it? and what do you mean by- "pipe comes out thru the cab"

 

i think its a stage 2, the exhaust tio comes out beneath the passenger cab you can actually see it in one of the pics

 

so you have coilovers and leaf springs in the rear?

 

oh no lol i took off the springs off the shocks
its cuz i got them for free so i just had to use them u know lol
but i took the coils off and just left the shock itself on

 

any more pics of the setup you have in the rear? Looks interesting.

 

oh i was thinking it was some custom setup with coilover instead of leaf springs. reguardless, nice truck

 

Cool truck man, nice color!

 

lol thanks bro! thanks everybody, ill post pics of the setup in a few

 

so this is the bracket that supports the hoop, and the mounts for the shock..

 

looks good but what I dont understand is why there are shocks on the back that are meant to have a coil on them did the previous owner have those on to make it stiffer or something?

 

oh no i put them on, i got them for free! lol
ill put some bypasses when i get the money and ill sell these, but i put them on cuz my uncles who race in baja had them sitting there in the box brand new so i took em

 

its actually not that stiff, the shocks are charged at 75lbs if not a little less

 

ahhhhhhhh ok well that makes sense

 

well i was refering to the pic with the coils on them

 

yeah, but bypasses are my next thing on the back and maybe sell these bad boys, there brand new, havent done anything too hard

 

thats when i first slapped them on, then i realized it was too stiff and i took off the coils! lol
i did it myself so, i learned thru it aha
