    Hey Tacoma World,

    My family and I just ordered a lift kit for my brothers 95 Tacoma, figured I'd run the parts list past you guys in case we missed anything. If you have any sage advice for the install that would be appreciated too.



    OME Tacoma Lift Kit, 95-97:
    Front Springs:
    - Old Man Emu Standard Duty - 4006

    Front Struts:
    - OME Nitrocharger Plus - 93004

    Rear Springs:
    - OME Medium Duty - CS019R & SB43 (not specifically for the 95' but it works)

    Rear Shocks:
    - OME Nitrocharger Plus - 63062

    - Exhaust Relocation Bracket - FK21

    - Fixed Point Bushing Sleeves - 181469

    - JBA STD High Caster Upper Control Arms for Toyota Tacoma

    - Zinc 2.5 Degree Slotted Rear Axle Shims (95.5+ Tacoma trucks)

    - Rear Leaf Spring Shackles

    - Wheeler's Rear SuperBump Bumpstop Set for 95+ Tacoma

    - Wheeler's Off-Road Single Rear Brake Line for 1995-2004 Toyota Tacoma from Stock Height to 3.5" Lift

    - Wheeler's Front Brake Line Set for 1995-2004 Tacoma 4x4



    Only thing that I can think of that we might need is a diff drop kit, but I saw some posts on here saying it shouldn't be necessary for only 2-2.5" of lift. We may also add a front sway bar drop kit depending on how it feels without the sway bar installed.

    It’s a 1st gen. I believe you also need the steering knuckle adapter bushing for the JBAs
