    My truck is in the process of R&D for the American Motorsports 2nd gen ('05+) 5-Lug Tacoma Long Travel Kit. Basically, my truck is being used as a guinea pig. Brian is planning on making other stuff for other Tacomas as well. Specs so far:

    • Boxed UCAs and LCAs
    • Fabricated Spindle
    • Heim Steering
    • Lower Uniballs (instead of bushings)
    • 5"-6" Over

    Here is some info on the 1st gen 5 lug kit Brian at American Motorsports just finished up.

    Looks good. Fitment is pretty good, especially on the bedsides. Just really goofy looking at the moment with the 6.5" fenders with the stock bumper and mid travel setup.

    Do you have any pics from the side or the front? I just want to see how funky the MT looks with the fenders.
