  • On most lifts for the 3rd gen Tacoma, you will either need to get new wheels or use wheel spaces. We are going to try out the wheel spacers first. But picking the right ones is important.

    I have been getting a lot of compliments on the stance of the Tacoma. And that is what is all about right? :)

    When you apply loctite , you are now using what is considered a “wet” torque. 100ft lbs is already 17ft lbs over what spec calls for. So with a “wet” torque (with the loctite, it’s like adding another 10-15% to the torque value. Now the studs are seeing approximately 110-115ft lbs of torque., which is way over the spec of 83ft lbs.

      Thanks for the tip. You are right about the wet torque. I love the platform. It helps out both ways. i "try" to help out where I can and you guys and gals help me evolve to get better.

    The 727 in my wagoneer was easier than my ax15 which I am not finished with yet. I don't feel like doing it yet. I need to change out some leafs in the rear of wagoneer. Sagging wagon. I need to find hub centric rims for rear of wagoneer. Have some chevy spare rims that won't fit the front because tie rod on back now. I slide tire under vehicle. Usually don't have jack stand. Just cheap insurance in case jack fails. Had a jack collapse under jeep and one sunk under a jeep. Make sure you retorque your tires on spacers after a 100 miles. Had a tire once pass me going down the road. It was my own tire too.

      my biggest issue with the 727 is motivation. I have done some work on it but it is not 100% yet. I like the look of the spacers so far but I should of went with the 1 inch instead of the 1.25. But we are learning.
      Thanks for watching and good luck on the Sagging Wagon.

    A "little" more than a "little" pricy, bro, $300.00 for 4 nowadays.

      they are a bit on the pricey side but cheaper then the wheels I wanted. I have been running mine for over a while now. if you break it down by day. they are just getting cheaper. :)
      I think a regear is going to be next on my list of things to do. So the wheels will be put on hold for a bit.
      Good luck and thanks for the watch.

      @@5LakesGarage My situation is similar. I’m ok with the factory wheels wrapped in 265/70/17 just looking to widen the stance just a little.

      I am still looking as well. I wonder if I can find a machine shop or maybe I can justify a lathe. :) If you do find some, please let us know and we will do the same.
