    If you look at the listing, the SS spacers only fit the 6-lug.
    6-lug is identical to the 4x4 and completely different from 5-lug.

    Prerunner suspension parts will not fit your 5-lug.
    It is a completely different truck.

    And your pictures are too small... we can't see shit.

    And I know what "struts" are and no Toyota pickup has them.
    With "struts" the steering knuckle is attached directly to the bottom of the shock... there is no upper control arm.

    You can disagree all you want.


    It won't make you right.


    The Prerunner is the same as the 4x4.

    Your 5 lug is NOT the same as a 4x4 or the prerunner. The only suspension parts that are compatible are the rear leaf springs... and they provide 1.5" DROP when installed on a 5-lug... no lift.
