Fantastic 2007 Toyota Tacoma - Towering Toyota
With the spindle free, Dale was able to gain access to the factory coilover and remove it. Next up, Dale pulled the lower control arms free.
Here, you can see the Pro Comp Tacoma lift kit. Included in the stage 2 kit are MX 2.75c coilovers, heavy-duty steel drop-down brackets, reinforced lift spindles, rear MX6 adjustable shocks, an add-a-leaf, blocks, and hardware.
Dale began the suspension assembly by bolting on the forward lower control arm drop-down bracket.
Several holes were required to be drilled at this point. This common lift kit step ensured the new brackets were securely mounted onto the frame substructure.
Another hole was drilled onto the front of the drop down bracket to provide lateral support to the bracket. Each nut in the kit had an extension on it to make tightening the hardware easier.
With the large drop-down brackets tightened and the new holes filled with bolts, Dale installed the factory lower control arm.
Pro Comp's lift kit reuses the factory bump stops, but it extends them down by using a spacer. Here, Dale installed the longer spacer.
After bolting the Toyota-specific strut cup to the top of the Pro Comp MX 2.75c coilover, Dale bolted the coilover in place. Since Pro Comp's coilovers are tuned at the factory, no adjustments were necessary for optimal ride and handling conditions.
Side by side, there is no real comparison for spindles. The emaciated factory Toyota spindle looks like a toy next to the new burly Pro Comp lift spindle. After the upper ball joint was loosely installed, the bottom control arm and hub were reinstalled.
