Wizzard005's 2012 Tacoma Build

New Leaf Springs Added and Installed.

Here are two pictures

8" of Lift up front



9 in the back

 

every time i see you a-holes with the lifted 2012's, it makes me want to sell mine and get a 2012.... good looking truck man.

 

Holy shit balls!! It's huge!

 

One of my favorite Tacomas of all time on this site. Just wondering if you have noticed much of a hit in the MPG department?

 

yes of course.. I knew that tho so i really didn't care :/ .. The truck drives great. It has no problems on the sand or with power. I love this truck

I am toyota's number one fan!

 

added a few more videos on YouTube....

 

I see that you can still fit in the carport. Would you mind telling me how high the rafters are so i know how much clearance ill need when i tear down and rebuild my carport. my stock barely fits in there now?
thanx

 

I don't know high the carport is, but the truck is about 7 1/2 Feet tall... I hope this helps...

 

Holy Sht, yes sir i appreciate the measurment. now i know what size door i need...

 

curious as to how you managed to get 9" in the back. i know you have the 6" alcans +300. 2-3" block? i would also assume that you have a top plate spacer on top of the dirt logic coilovers?

 

Well starting with the back,

Fabtech gives the following:

3" Block, and 1 1/2 add-a-leaf , however they figure it, it gives the back 6" of lift

Well I ordered 6" springs so ditching the blocks and their add-a-leafs gives a true 6" of lift not 4 1/2 to whatever stock already was.

The front are adjustable, so i raised it 2" witch looks still almost stock, (the CV Arch)

The rear dirt logic shocks are still longer then what i have, they dont bottom out, so no there are no spacers on them....

Totally subd !

 

I really need to ditch my blocks and get these said springs!!! I love my FABTECH 6" but I want springs!!! How much for them $$ ???

 

they cost 245/each .....

 

I can handle that! Fuckyeah

 

How long did it take for them to make your springs and get them to you?
How do they ride compared to the Fabtech block and add a leaf?
My rear is pretty stiff after lifting my truck with a Fabtech lift. It's very stiff on the freeway especially if the freeway has a lot of bumps because of the concrete slabs sinking or moving around.

 

Same here. Going over railroad tracks it feels like the ass end is bouncing up and to the left or right. Pretty rough.

 

I have never been in my truck when it was stock, so i am not sure on how it is vs stock, however I have had passengers from other Tacoma's ride with me ans they say it feels like a stock ride, maybe a little harder but more like stock, not so harsh on the road...

I hope this helps some...

 

do you only have one trd hawaii sticker???
