    I'm looking for the most insane axle trusses. Maybe it doesn't exist, but I'm hoping someone has a photo of one that is a jaw dropper.

    Doesn't need to specifically be for a Tacoma

    Craziest? Most insane? Sounds like an over the top lifted show truck. Lots of examples can be found here.

    Jaw dropping axle trusses does not compute.

    If anything, axle trusses make my jaw do the exact opposite of that.









    Ummm... Its supposed to bend that way, right? Right?

    I'm not going to google uni-shaft on my work computer. I've already had that talk with HR.
