I'm in the process of getting my Tacoma solid axle swapped. I'm using a 82 Toyota axle in the swap. I'm going to run a 3 link setup, but I have ran into a few "issues"
1) I'm trying to find out exactly what coil setup to run. I'm using 12in Fox coilovers up front, and from talking to a few people on other forums that have done a very similar swap on their daily driver I gotten the recommendation of 250lbs on top and 350lbs on the bottom. Is there any advantages to running say a 10in coil on top and 14in on the bottom, or just running two 12in coils?
2) Trail-Gear is telling me that I could not run a regular high steer setup due to it "limiting" my drop/flex. With the setup I'm going to be running the shock should bottom out before I ever have to worry about the steering binding/breaking. I have talked to multiple people who have done it and some run high steer and some run a Y steering setup. Do you guys have any input?
I'm not starting the cutting part of the conversion until end of April/first part of May, so I still have time to make adjustments. Thanks!
