Tacoma 1st gen c notch

You can only lower a first gen tacoma a couple inches in the rear before your axle begins hitting your frame.

I was unhappy with the stance and the tire gap. It was c notch time!

 

at 4 inches you lose all use of everyday driving...gotta notch it if you want to use your truck without worrying

 

C notch complete. Tire gap gone.

 

Is that a wrap or plasti dip?

 

Love the new level!!!!!!

 

you got a link to those leafs?

 

Very nice truck! Love the bobber bed!

 

They are belltech 5978

 

This truck would look sick with some Brembos behind the wheels.

 

Do they make brembo kits for these? I would love to upgrade the brakes.

I did this set up to my taco and it’s perfect

 

It isn't really a kit. You buy Brembos for a Cadillac ATS and rotors for a Lancer Evo VIII-IX. The rotors get the bore widened by a machine shop and some holes drilled so they can bolt to the Tacoma hub. The caliper mounting holes align to the ones on the Tacoma spindle. All you need to do is bore out the spindle holes to accept the larger bolts for the Brembo caliper. Stainless brake lines for a Tacoma or for a WRX STI will round it out.

 

I love the big front brakes, but my next little project is going to be a cab swap. I picked this double cab up today. Super clean.

 

Cab swap from which truck to which? From the red truck to the blue one?

 

Yeah, I'm gonna make it a lowered double cab.

 

OOOO Can’t wait to see this!!!!! Nice always wanted to do this but thought the six lug suspension would be too much work to lower.

 

subbed.
Always wanted to see what my dc would look like lowered.

 

darn those only fit up to 95 year trucks

 

1st gen Tacomas ran 95.5-04. The 01-04s had different leafs from 95.5-00 as far as I know. 95.5-00 should be the same fitment.
