I went with SPC UCA. I ran the 35s on TC UCA for a good while but just wasn't happy with the alignment vs rubbing against the cab. I couldn't get the tires pushed far enough forward in the wheel well without the truck driving like crap. So I finally caved and went for the SPCs. I have -12 offset wheels and I'm also using a 1/4" spacer. This combo prevent any rubbing against the UCA but it didn't help with rubbing against the cab. I'm going to wait to see how things end up after the first alignment (and pushing the tires as far forward in the wheel well as possible) and assess the spacer situation again. I have 1" inch spacers at the ready in case i need them but I would prefer to run no spacers at all.

Whoa! first time I'm hearing or seeing this product. This is a mod of no return (AKA not just bolt on). The product page definitely hits on my issues. I feel like I want to exhaust all other avenues before going a route like this one but good to know this even exists. Thanks for sharing it!

 

there's a whole thread about it here: https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads...g-now-adding-long-travel-and-934-cv’s.626274/

 

warning... if you open that thread you are doomed.

 

@nizzm this is sage advice

Super clean.

 

Interesting that it has a grey dash but tan seats, carpet, door trim, and center consol.

 

That is super clean esp for the mileage. And great color too

Wow, that is a rare bird. Single cab with the V6...that is a beautiful truck. Honestly surprised they aren't asking for more given that.

 

Yeah, gives off the grandfather vibe, unmolested, stock wheels, bumpers, radio. Someone just drove it and did oil changes and maybe put some boxes in the back once in a while, perhaps a dirt road to a fishing spot. Doesn't look modified in any way. @1997tacomav6 I wonder if you can see something in the ad I can't. Sure looks like a nice find for someone.

 

Rear bumper is not stock. And a few of the interior panels are diffrent colors. Also the seats have been recovered.

 

Ah, keen eye, thanks. Original bumper was chromey?

I see the panel color diffs now too, strange. No idea why those would need to be replaced or why they look pinkish.

 

Yeah the carpet looks newish too, but all in all given it's age, its in great shape and the work done to it was done well it seems like. All the lettering on the knobs still looks new and clear, dash looks nice and pristine...it's been cared for. Nice detail job on the engine bay too.

Course for what they're asking it needs to be, but given how rare it is I'm sure they will get it.

 

Looks pretty clean but a lot of money still especially if you want to add upgrades.

1)rear bumper has been replaced
2) rims are not correct for the SX package
3) carpet I think has been replaced, it’s not laying down flat under the drivers seat.
4) center console I don’t think is original
5) evaporation canister doesn’t look right
6) possibly a new radiator
7)SX decals are peeling off
8) a lot of dents in the bed and wheel wells in the bed
9) shifter boot is blue and console too so both have been replaced
10) lower kick panel under steering wheel is a different color
11) emergency brake level is pulled out too far, needs adjustment or something
12) 4x4 mud flaps are missing
13) interior colors look strange, maybe the camera
14) ECU not Compatible with TRD supercharger without mods, only 1997 forward are
