    I just bought a 5 lug tacoma

    I bought some 31 inch tires for cheap , I put 2 tires in the back and they fit perfectly fine. But since the front of the truck looks lower than the front I didn't even try to fit them , I've been looking for a leveling kit (strut spacer) but I can't seem to find one for the 5 lug . They're all for 6 lugs . Does anyone know where I can find one for my truck?

    Everyone here will advise against a spacer kit, but if you are set on one but can't find it for sale they wouldn't be hard to make at all

    Yes, to my knowledge that's all a spacer lift is, get a round chunk of metal the size of your strut and desired height, drill mounting holes, and you've got a simple (slightly ghetto) spacer lift
