Description
Introducing our new Outboard Shock Mount Kit for the 1996-2004 Toyota Tacoma!
The rear shock location for the 1996-2004 Toyota Tacoma is in an incredibly tight and hard to reach place. The 1st Gen Tacoma stock location also limits the size and type of shock that can be installed. This kit is designed to move the shocks to the outside of the frame and pushes suspension travel and performance to its limits!
About:
The Tacoma Outboard Shock Mount Kit moves the shock location to the outside of the frame within the wheel well which allows you to run longer, bigger, and higher quality shocks. Replacing the shocks becomes much easier as well. This kit is design works with most universal shocks meaning you can run your favorite brands without compromise! This kit also puts the shock in a more vertical position (as opposed to the factory angle) which greatly increases stability, shock performance, and longevity.
Unlike other kits on the market, we offer a unique fully boxed and plated design with locating wings for easy installation and added strength. Due to the boxed design the entire package is smaller which allows you to run a hydro bump kit without any modifications. This kit also has more weld surface than others which increases strength and lowers risks of cracks in high stress applications.
The lower shock mounts includes a boxed designed with a wing that wraps around the axle which adds weld surface, makes installation easier, and is overall stronger than other available options.
We offer an add-on frame notch kit to help clear larger shocks at full suspension articulation.
