Hammer Hangers® by Archive Garage 2005-2023 Tacoma Shackle Hangers

I don't know how many times you have gone over this issue in this thread but i want to say its more times than on 2 hands. Anyways just cut the second leaf and be done with it a quite complaining about it. Its a know issue. That was not directed at you Eric.

 

I've been liking mine too, and after a few actual off-road trips (not to the mall), I haven't had any issues, but I need to crawl under again to inspect.

Yeah, sorry to rehash this, I just thought it was interesting that this was the official response from Dobinsons. "If plastic is missing, replace it. There is no issue."

 

Sooo going from dusty ass oem leafs with an AAL to the RXTs and HHs is like night and day. Originally I was tempted to buy the cheaper BAMF stuff but as someone that fabricates for a living, the Archive stuff is truly top-notch. Install was super straightforward once I took @EatSleepTacos advice and rented a ball joint tool to pop the rivets out. I'll definitely be buying the Archive trail series relocation once I decide to tackle that as well




disregard the Georgia dirt and rust

 

Hey @ARCHIVE, I'm looking to pick up your Shock Relocation Towers 2.5 x 14 in mid travel kit. I wanted to do my research and look into the install process. Was wondering if the install paperwork is available to read though? I picked up the HH and new shackles also paired them with the cross tub few month back and couldnt be happier. The instructions couldn't be more clear and easy to follow. I imagine they are not too different for the towers. I'm not afraid of doing the work as im a welder by trade. Guess im curios of how to find the new location to weld in the Towers and new brackets on the axle. Few videos i seen didnt go into the detail of the angle/ measurements. Any info woud be sweet, Thanks

 

Message me your email, and I will send you instructions

Thanks for the direction to the thread! This community is amazing ✌

 

Just realized I never posted here. I am super impressed with the HH, really all the AG products that I have received. Here is my install of the hangers in case anyone is curious of the process.

Thanks Classy! Again, I really appreciate that install video!

 

Update on the Archive HD springs, we have a batch coming about the end of September, got 11 pairs available at this point. Spring Info linked in quoted post
Message me if you are interested ($750 + shipping)

 

If only these had been available a little sooner! The new springs looks great

 

Hey! I watched your video back when doing my HHs. Very helpful, the vice grip trick saved me a lot of hassle. Thank you!

 

Anytime, love the products. I'll have the bump stop install out by this weekend.

 

just a thought...because the hammer hangers crossbar eliminates space for the spare tire, will archive garage come out with a tire relocation kit? just cant find a tire relocation method that I like.

 

HC rear bumper w/ swingout

 

no can do for me i got a outgear solutions HC bumper, but besides that i dont like the idea of all that weight hanging out behind the bumper and hindering the visibility of the taillights from certain angles. as the saying goes, there are no solutions only trade offs haha. would love a kit that placed the spare flat centered in the bef between the two rear tires. i guess ill add 4 anchors to the bed frame bolts and hold the tire down with two ratchet straps

 

Then put it in the bed, if that isnt an option, then dont run the cross bar.

 

Nfab has some solutions for this.

I got their rail mounted spare tire rack years ago that they unfortunately don't seem to make anymore. Takes up more space in the box but I've only got the 2 back bolts in so it can flip up and I can run sheets of plywood or whatever underneath still.

 

Sorry if this was asked before, but I have a question on which Hammer Hangers to grab. If I plan on doing the SUA soon, but currently have atlas springs at stock location, will the 4" HH work on my setup? What will be the effect vs 3"?
