2007 Taco 5 lug Build

Here she is stock mudded out just picked up some stock trd shocks and struts will post more through out the build

 

Heres a pic of the struts and shocks

 

Silly question sper but you think these struts will fit?

 

Im no 2nd gen expert, should ask a 2nd gen guy but im pretty sure the 6lug front struts will not fit at all, but with an AAL in the rear you can use the 6lug rear shocks.

 

No way in hell huh , even with some mods

 

Suspension geometry is all different. I think the 6lug ones are like 4” longer then the 5lug ones. Even if you managed to get them in your front end will be so jacked up tha you probably wont have any down travel and it would be impossible to get an alignment

 

Saw or icon use to make coil overs and that with TC ucas was a 3” lift and was 5lug specific.
Only way i see guys lifting 2nd gens now is either a spcer or going full LT

 

Dang, so i screwed up by buying these huh

 

Well you can use the rears with an aal so thats fine. The fronts are useless to you, sorry to say

Cool man thanks, only reason i picked those trds was the price and i need to replace all my shocks and struts they are blown out after i had some stock fun

 

I would try selling the front and getting some of your money back and getting some ones that will fit you 5lug

 

Thanks man appreciate your help, was really excited about this set

 

Atleast you know before you took your truck apart and found out that way

 

Forrealzz

 

What about this.. https://www.4wheelparts.com/Suspens..._c=1&t_s=90&t_pt=3306&t_pn=S/DShockingZXCombo

And this

Pro Comp 65660K 2.75" Front 1.75" Rear Suspension Lift Kit for 5-Lug Tacoma 2WD

https://www.amazon.com/Pro-Comp-65660K-Suspension-Tacoma/dp/B005GDZQYQ

 

Idk the shocks say they will fit but i would call 4 wheel parts and ask

Bilstein makes the oem shocks for 5lugs so you can always get oem replacements or check rock auto

But yes that lift will work thats what ive seen most 2nd gen guys run or they use the 3” spacer lift off ebay.

 

So i got all my lift stuff ready im just trying to figure out the tires now , i want to go big or go mods dont matter
