    I debated doing this myself when the weather warms up a bit but got anxious and had a shop install them. Glad I did. Every fastener required a torch to get it off. Sometime it pays to have someone else do the work. I would have struggled over a weekend doing this. They did lift the front app. 1 " or maybe a bit more. The ride is more sporty and firm. I disregarded the color codes and installed them exactly like the Taco that they came from. I'm very pleased with the results so far. I don't know if the Taco lean was improved (my driveway isn't level). So far, I'm a happy camper.....

    Did you go with the Sport or Off Road? I did the Off Road because I wanted a little softer ride. That's when I created the thread for the 3rd gen suspension on the 2nd gens.

    I did takeoffs. Some bolts were fun to get out rusted up so bad. I cut my stable links off and the UCA long bolt was a pain it was so rusted on.
