    Looks like a drop bracket.

    Which doesn't make much sense if one is 2wd

    Why not? Maybe it's cheaper than spindles?

    Is it just me or does the truck on the left have downward CV angles?

    Got a problem with my curved bar and color shifts? :anonymous:

    Kidding kidding. The biohazard is the symbol for Level 7 trucks. Aka over $100 a year for their own forum and discounts on Chinese LEDs

    Ground clearance eliminator kit

    It's to lower your LCA mounts and front diff so your CV angles don't look like Mt Everest

    On these trucks I'd do it above 3" if you're 4WD and/or want to run stock shock mounts and LCAs. They're fine for street use as long as you couple them with 6" (or whatever) coilovers and don't use coil bucket spacers but I'm more of a low center of gravity guy

    Edit: if you're 2WD spindle + coilovers cranked to 2" all the way

    Im a 4x4 with probably close to 3"s of lift. I have stock LCAs and shock mounts... But i think an IFS skid would be better for me.

    Overall, and neglecting the obvious mechanical issues those trucks look good IMO. Whoever owns them obviously has a lot of passion and love for their Tacoma, and you would be remiss to begrudge someone for that love.
