Talking Pics of my 1995 Tacoma w/ new lift

Hey guys, just wanted to share a few updated pics of my Tacoma. Just installed a new 3" SKYJACKER suspension lift. Nothing too fancy or beastly but it does it's job. I love this truck ans have 100% faith in its capabilities. It has 5" total of lift w/ 32" tires. Any other suggestions on tire size? By the way it has 204,000 miles on it

Hey! The brush guard was custom made and the lift is nice. The 2" body lift is alright (we replaced all bushings) and the new lift is awesome. However, man is that add-a-leaf stiff! It made things a lot more bumpy but thats what I wanted right. I just through on a set of extened Skyjacker shocks for the rear and that helped a lot. The oem rear shocks will work with this amount of lift but are completely maxed out. Overall I like the lift VERY much and cant wait to throw on some new rubbers soon

Just go with 33s. Your truck looks sick! Clean and tasteful.

What happened to the driver side front fender trim?

I'm not sure what happened to it actually...now that you pointed it out, that was the first time I noticed that!

haha, sorry to burst your bubble. That should be a pretty easy find. I'll keep my eyes peeled at my local junkyards. You could just take off the passenger side.
