Let’s see your 5 lug taco builds

Sexy! Did the headers seem to make a notable difference in performance?

 

The simple answer is yes. I try to gauge the difference in normal everyday driving vs. stomping the gas . Let’s face it we ain’t winning too many races lol. Anyway yeah it’s got the intake , header and a chambered dumped exhaust. It all made a difference then I added the Hikeit throttle controller. All together it’s a fun ass drive to work everyday .

 

Guess every bit helps these little 4 bangers!! Anything else coming up for it?

 

The frame still needs to be notched and I have a set of 4x4 springs but I’m not sure if I’m gonna use them. Some more paint to match stuff like the mirrors would be cool.

 

Ohhh

 

Could you see much of a gain with the header

 

Hey man what drop do you have

 

It’s 3” drop struts from Rat Rodz I think and 3” DJM control arms for the front. The back is a 4” block on stock springs. Front tires are 255/35/19 and rears are 275/35/19

 

Thanks bro truck is badass

 

Update on my truck

 

Wow. Mason, what do I need to do make my truck look like that?

 

Go on airbagit.com and get the Tacoma 2/3 drop kit 5lug then get the headlights with the black housing and paint your wheels black and tint your windows and you be like me

 

I also painted my grill black but

 

Thanks Mason. Will be looking into it soon. How has the drop affected your ride quality and mpg?

 

It hasn’t really changed it at all feels stock and mpg is the same

 

That's quite interesting. I thought the ride would feel more cadillacy lol. I'm trying to decide whether to drop it or raise it. I wonder if raising it makes the ride more luxurious with better suspension.

 

It feels cooler tho cause your lower lol

 

I feel you, have a mustang, love the low feel sometimes. And sometimes just feel trucky lol

 

Definitely will not feel Cadillacy. That would require soft spring rates and ideally not leaf springs in the rear if that's the feel you wanted.

 

I’m gonna end up dropping my truck 3 more inches all the way around we’ll the back 2.75 and front 3 so it will sit perfectly level
