TACOMA MODS!!! High quality Vertex coilovers provided by Rough Country went on Chase's Toyota Tacoma and they look oh so good! So happy to finally have nice suspension on the truck. The Tacoma is getting closer and closer to being overland ready and we are ready to take this thing off road on some adventures!

Where do you want to see us take the Tacoma??
On the trails at windrock
Jump it. Just ordered the same kit for my taco, curious if these will tolerate some air time.
Take it to the Dunes! Those shocks need to take some Heat!!
Man, the 2 things that are constantly in me feed... bikes and trucks.. love your channel buds!
Thanks bud🙏🥰
Looks good. I like to keep my vertex shocks at the 2 setting for daily driving. There really isn't a need to stiffen them if you're just on normal roads. I'll typically increase to a 5 or 6 when I have more weight in the truck.
That’s basically what I’m doing too! They ride pretty damn good too
The leaf springs finally got here! The suspension is completely done 🤟🏻🤟🏻
Cool.. how was it after 1 year?
What are the upgraded leaf springs supposed to do? Thinking about the 6” vertex setup for my lil taco!
Looking good Buds🤙🏽
Ooo your new pic is looking cleannnnn!🤙
How are the rear shocks? My (stock rear leafs and Bilsteins) 2013 Tacoma hits the bump stops in the rear when hitting even small dips.
How do these feel on choppy roads
Looks great fellas, I may need to upgrade also
You should!
What tire size do u have on ur taco?
Did you have any issues with the rear passenger shock aligning in the top hole? Mine are too wide to fit properly in the rear passenger side. It doesn’t line up in the center of the hole, the shock body hits the frame.
No we didn’t have any issues! Does the actual shock body hit or the little 90 degree fitting coming out of the side?
@@Blake_Cherubini yes the top of the shock just before it starts tapering up to the bushing studs makes contact with the frame it’s self. Both rear shocks have the same part number. The driver’s side had no issues. Strange thing.
Weird! Mine fit perfectly. Maybe it’s a tolerance thing on the mounting hole on the frame?
No alignment done directly after the new suspension?
Took it to the shop right after that and had it done👍
How old was that passenger side rear shock that failed? Clapped as you called it...
No idea. It was on the truck when I bought it. I assume it was pretty old since the shaft was pretty rusty at the top
Looks good but do they soak up potholes on bad roads? I have the cheaper rough country three and a half inch lift and it's just way too stiff. Feels like you're in a covered wagon when you hit potholes. Considering the vertex just wanted to be a lot better
Completely disappointed with my vertex on my Tacoma it’s so rough even on setting 1 on dirt roads and everything
jealous of your lift / shop
Wish we could say it was ours… our buddy Roger has an awesome setup!
What tires did you stay with
Can u run these with no sway bar
I'm curious, I just did this Vertex coilover kit with V2 rear shocks on my 4 Runner. I'm getting a gnarly creaking sound out of my front suspension that I cannot isolate. Any ideas?
Most likely need to grease the bearings and everything if that’s not it then probably a cv axel. I have this same lift and I hate it I’ve had nothing but problems with it I’m going to swap it for something else cause i absolutely can’t stand the lift.
Please make a review video 🤞🏼
My leaf springs are flat. I run a cab high dog box on my 3rd gen. You think this would be a good all around replacement for my factory bilstein shocks and leaf springs?
Yes it would! Still might need to upgrade to a heavier leaf pack though
My 2007 had a tsb or a recall on the leafs
Mine did too. Got them replaced when I got it!
I also have a 12 and I am in Canada and mine qualified for a frame recall.. Did your not?
Idk if it qualifies or not 🤷♂️ it doesn’t need it though
Mine didn't need it either but for peace of mind if it ever goes too far I know I can get a replacement, what type of wheels do you have? Also how much does it stick out from the side? I'm still running stock wheels but would like to change up and have something that sticks out about an inch.
Hey bud! Check out for the Vertex feeder hose, not supposed to go under your control arm as it could rub against over time if trailing. I did the same mistake on my pre runner and one of the hoses broke after 200 miles in the dunes.
Does it go over the top then?
@@Blake_Cherubini yep. Tacoma requires creativity, as long as your hose is not obstructed you're good to go!
I checked and it was starting to rub through the braided hose. I adjusted them so they should clear completely now!
@@Blake_Cherubini hey was it able to go over the top of upper control arm instead of under ??
Hard no. I just adjusted the 90 fitting a little bit and made it so it wouldn’t rub!
Did you have to install sway bar drop bracket to stop rubbing of sway bar and coil over ?
Yes, that’s what comes with the kit!
@@Blake_Cherubini I never got a drop bracket with my kit what should I do
Did your tires rub?
Nope! I have since gone to 295/70/17 and run ever so slightly
About to order the same kit! what size wheels and tires are you running? and do they rub at all?
I’m running 285/70r17s and they actually don’t run at all for me
You’d think you would be happier with that setup and a more impressive ride. That’s a pricey setup.
I only drove it for a few miles so it’s hard to give a full review of how they preform on smooth paved roads…
Your truck looks fricken SICK! Let me know if you ever want to trade up to my Silverado! (with cash on your end of course)
I would need lots of cash for Pearl lol
