Does anyone run tacoma rear springs on their rig. I know a guy who does and he likes them but i want more input on the topic. I have an 80 and was wondering how much lift this setup would give me. It gave my buddy around 6inches of lift on his 93 but i don't know what it will do to my 1st gen. any input would help.

Only thing I know about taco springs is that for a couple of years, not sure which, they had a problem with breaking. I think they even had some kind of recall. I would do some research to make sure you don't end up with springs that are going to cause you problems.

yep there was a recall.. hopefully you got the fixed ones or the years that didnt get the recall.   if you did  id suggest you do somthing different as they are pretty weak

I haven't got them yet was just wondering, because my buddy is running them and they seem to work pretty well.
