I really haven't taken them out to see. I do know they don't rub lock to lock, tried that already. There is a small ditch here at the shop that I drove through and nothing rubbed but I wasn't getting full stuff. I will re-post when I find out.

Thanks Vato Loco I think it does too.

Some of these??





These are the ones I bought from that kid in Vancouver, Wa. that got them from you but I don't like the way they fit my truck. They sit to far forward on the truck so the tires will rub them. I think I need to get back into contact with you about the diy hybrid slider kit.

I believe the wheelbase on the standard cab tacomas is very similar to a 4Runner so you will probably have the same issues as he does with tire clearance. Measure to be sure...

Really? ?

They should fit fine and have plenty of room to move them back. Are those for a 4runner or tacoma and which part are you putting at the front of the truck?

They look kinda funny? Like they were put together wrong? were those a DIY kit? That first leg should be under the 2in support.

They are 33's. The 31's cleared fine. The sliders stuck out past the pinch weld on the front and they were real tight on the body.

I was told they were for a Tacoma, that's what he had (96 I think)

Tear drop end goes to the back. If you look close you can see where I cut part of the mounting plate to slide them back but still sticks out past the pinch weld.

I just talked to my other fabricator and showed him the pics we noticed that the legs are all in the wrong places. Were not so sure we made those? Maybe it was a DIY kit? Or something I made a couple years ago?
