    Installed lift and uca,s. King 2.5 rr all around chaos uca. Deaver springs in the rear. Truck rides much better, no jarring when hitting bad spots in the road. Dont think im going to do much more. Invested a bit of money into this truck, going to have to drive it more than my usual 3 years. Here's some pics, let me know what you think,
    the dark spots on the corners are from my camera shutter not opening all the way.

    Looks like you've done a great job. I've wanted to lift my truck but I need to find a setup that won't make the Tacoma steer or ride any more harsh. She won't mind sitting up higher but I've fot to be able to tell her it will improve the ride.

    You said it now actually rides better, correct? How about the steering, is it the same or similar to stock?

    Did you go with the Toyota Tacoma Front 2.5 King coilover kit (P/N 690503? What part number did you use on the rear?

    Did you have to go with the UCAs in order to get back to a factory front end alignment?

    Thanks and your truck really looks great!

    Dude that looks like shit. If I were you, I'd take it off your truck asap. Places will charge you to get rid of that horrendous set of shocks. As a tw member though, I'll hook you up. Shipem to me and I won't charge you a dime.
