LEVELING KIT FOR 2006 TOYOTA TACOMA 5 LUG 2WD

Iv’e been looking online for a leveling kit for my 2006 Toyota Tacoma Regular Cab 2.7L I-4 RWD 5 Lug truck. I cannot find any leveling kits or lift kits for the 5 lug models. I’m curious if im missing them or there’s a reason there are none. I really want to lift this truck but have little knowledge of leveling kits. Can somebody help me find a lift kit, thank you. If anybody has any questions or anything please ask.

Welcome to TW!

I have a ProComp 2"

$190 add-a-leaf kit for 1995-2023 toyota tacoma - 21.5" short AAL set with isolator pads and square bend u-bolts

add-a-leaf kit on my 2010 RC 5-lug; I forget where I got it (either Amazon or directly from ProComp), but it's been almost a year and I've been satisfied. The one thing is that the front spacers really put space at a premium, and my mechanic who did the install for me had to really finagle to get it in. I also have Bilstein 4800 rear shock absorbers that I just had installed last November when my frame was replaced, and I found out that the front Bilsteins would not fit with the spacers, so I went with stock shocks up front; Here is a current picture of my truck...



I am currently rolling 235/75R15 Cooper Discoverer AT/3s, which in my opinion are the best tires I've ever had (this is my second set); I previously had the same tires in 225/70R15 before the lift, but those had about 36K miles on them anyway, so it was the perfect excuse to upsize!

 

Where did you get your shocks from? There is a front 5 lug 4600 that fits with all the spacers but the rear 5 lug 4600 won't fit after an aal.

 

You do realize you quoted your own comment...? Anyway, my mechanic ordered them from one of his suppliers; Will have to ask where he got them...

 

I did lol my phone is dumb. They're probably from 6 lug but that means you can still add a billy to the front.

 

I’m running the Readylift 2.75” SST lift. Bilstein 4600 front and 5100 (6lug) shocks…

 

I’m really new to all of this and have no experience, what makes the 6 lug shock differnt from a 5 lug? And why does the 5100 6 lug work on the front even if its a 5 lug truck? Also where is a good place to look for wheels, i’ve been struggling to find 5 lug wheels that i think fit my aesthetic. Also I love your truck!

Everything is explained here…

6 lug rear shocks work on the 5 lug only when lift is applied to the rear. For the front the 4600 (5lug) specific shock is one of the only options.

 

What's your aesthetic?

 

Honestly i just like offsetted rims and agressive stances. I dont care much for functionality tbh. I hope this helps. Thanks!

 

You actually got those to fit? How?

 

I've just put hundreds of dollars into my shocks; Unless something unforeseen happens, I'm sticking with these for a while!

 

Many lifted taco’s are running this combination on the 5 lug forums…

From what I heard it took some finessing to get the parts in there and bolted up.
