Archive Garage 2.5″ OD Rear Shock Relocation Tower Kit for 2005-23 Tacoma

Archive Garage introduced the original 2.5″ kit to mount 2.5″ x 12″ to 2.5″ x 14″ travel shocks without cutting your bed nearly a decade ago! This “under bed” kit allows bolting to bed for less frame stress than other kits, which also allows a crossbar to be fit to lock out the frame rails from rotating inward.

Laser cut from 3/16″ HSLA 50,000 psi steel (30% stronger) CNC brake-formed towers for toughness. Towers are blasted, primed, and powder coated black for top corrosion resistance. Axle tabs (included) are 1/4″ HSLA for severe use and rock crawling.

We also offer longer rear brake lines for tall lifts or a lot of flex, such as running a rear setup with 12 to 14″ of travel. Click here to view those!

Free Shipping to the Lower 48-States: Because Archive Garage is in New York and on the other side of the country from us, we’ve worked out a deal to have them drop-ship direct to you instead of requiring an additional shipment from us. As a result, please consider transit time from the north-east. For example, west coast customers may expect up to 5 days or more for delivery. Click here to view an estimated Transit Time Delivery Map, adding potentially a day or two for Archive Garage to process the order on their end. If there are any delays or stock issues from Archive Garage, then we will let you know, thanks!
