The Taco lean

for those of you that did a mild lift, 2.5-3", did you guys add a small 1/4" spacer on the driver side to compensate for the taco lean?

 

I just put the OME kit on last weekend and did not put one in. I did order the longer top plate bolts just in case the front sagged. Of course it did so I will be ordering the 10mm kit and the driver's side shim from wheeler's. I like my truck to sit level and not sag in the front.
What kind of lift are you putting on or have you already done so?

 

Nope I cant tell there is any lean.

 

I don't see it and if we ever meet don't point it out to me.

 

I put the 1/4" Toytec spacer on with mine when I did the lift just for that sole purpose and it helped correct the lean, yes.

 

I never did the taco lean spacer.. Never knew about it until I heard about on TW

 

i'm doing a budget lift. eibachs with 5100s in the front and 5150 in the rear.

LOL

i didn't learn about the taco lean until i saw your post with your lift info. i don't really notice the lean on my truck, but maybe i'm not paying close enough attention, lol.

 

I have the lean, its noticeable

 

I have camberg uca's with the coils and 3" spindles with no lean

 

I got a lean for sure

 

i dont have it...but my setup is all new...

 

I used the 5mm trim packer on the driver side when I installed my 881s and Nitorchargers new. It took out the 1/4 inch and it is dead even across the front now.

I gotta say, I saw an old Taco with obvious worn out stock suspension bouncing and wobbling down the highway the other day, more lean than I have ever seen. Looked like an accident waiting to happen.

 

just wanted to see that tacoma again. love your fucking truck. id love to go black (the original color) just seems like a high maintenance color. cage and cantilever that truck already.

 

See my sig for my suspension...I put the 1/4" top plate spacer (toytec) on drivers side and it STILL leans a good 1/2". I just try to ignore it now...

 

i have my coilovers adjusted higher on my driver side, its really trippy b/c i measured the distance the coilovers were adjusted on each side and then measured my fender to ground clearance and was really confused at first why the passenger side had more clearance with less lift on the COs but not i realize the taco lean is to blame!
