Taco lean fix, Help!
taco lean help!
hi guys.
My 95 taco leans to the drivers side. I know, many more have this same problem.
here's where I need your help.
I have access to a machining shop, I can make a ½" spacer to add on top of my drivers side strut and surely fix my 1" lean difference.
What I would like your help on is, do any of you guys have a squetch of the spacer, including dimensions?
you know, outside diameter, inside diameter and holes center locations?
I would like to fab one up, install it and check to see if the lean is fixed.
and if this works, if you guys ever need one, I can hook you up.
I would have to take mine apart in order to get these dimensions, but if anyone else has done it or have it apart, you know, be cool and lend me some dimensions.
thanks...

Your going to need longer studs in your top plate. Even a 1/4 spacer barely allows full engagement of all the threads on the bolt. I might have my old OME 1/4 spacer I could take some measurements of. Give me a few hours.
Oh and, theres no way your have a 2.7L 3VZE engine. In your Tacoma you have a 2.7L 3RZ.

Whenever you get a chance just repply on the post with the dimensions and from there will make it happen.
and you are aboslutely right, my engine is the 3RZ-FE, I have corrected my signature, thanks for that.
Now for the longer studs, new longer ones will have to be pressed in, there are a whole bunch of places downhere where I can get longer ones with the same diameter, probably different thread, but that doesn't matter as long as it does the job (same type of grade on the stud).
