    My 2inch drop was close to being within specs but i still have a little positive camber. Hard to tell in the pic, but its just enough to notice. Havent noted any abnormal tire wear though which is weird

    Lowered trucks are like transgender people they have an identity problem and think they should've been cars. :thumbsup:

    It all boils down to opinions, and you have the same opinion as most on this site, hence why the street trucks section is so small. Most of the folks with lowered trucks are on XRU or Custom tacos.com.

    Personally i dont see a reason to come in here and post what you did just to start arguments with folks. If you dont see a use for it, no biggie, keep moving along, no reason to start a shit storm. This is TacomaWorld after all. Dont see me jumping in the lifted trucks thread and saying theres no use for it, buy a lifted truck from the factory. :facepalm:

    I just hate it that lowered trucks and Honda Odysseys can tow more than our tacos. Hmm
