Impress me with your 5 lug

get the shackle flip kit and do the ready lift.

 

Unfortunately, I don't. Never had the intentions to record what I build.

 

Quick question for those of you who would know. Is there a 3rd Gen 5lug Tacoma?

 

Nope they stopped at 2nd gen

 

Thats what I thought but I wanted to make sure. Thank you

 

Late message reply, i know.. i don't actually get over to TW that much any more.

I've got almost two years on my Detroit TruTrac LSD - about 30,000km on it now, since installed along with a 4:10 differential.

100% of it is on-road (unless you count riding forward and over parking lot raised medians, vs reversing out, just for the heck of it, as offroad..), ~98% of the mileage being Highway.

I obviously did not get the LSD for off-road use... but rather as insurance against sometimes bad road conditions in the snow-belt, here.

This winter paid off - we actually are having a real winter, for the first time in what seems to be decades. I have no complaints about the LSD in terms of it's effectiveness .. I don't even have to carry a few hundred pounds of sand in the back this year. Improvement in traction off the line is clearly evident, in all conditions.

I'd rate it in the top 5 of my personal mods/changes to the truck.

 

Thanks for your response, No issues with cornering? It defiantly seems to be the correct choice economically

 

No issues - the design is such that Traction is there, when needed.

 

Where did you get the adapters

 

Hey guys, new to the forum just picked up this 09 Tacoma 5lug.
Only thing I did was add new wheels and tires
235/65/17 geolanders AT on Fuel Anza wheels
-6 offset 4.5 backspacing and a 1inch spacer. Also remove black box

I really dig your rig. What's your wheel and tire set-up?
