all the trucks I ever had (chevys) were all axle under the leafs but now I need to learn about which tacomas have axles over the leafs and which are under the leafs because looking at some youtube suspension mods on tacomas I see some are over and some are under so which are over the springs and which are under? they don't really mention the year trucks they are working on or if its 2wd or 4wd
the question is brought about because im looking at a 1999 Tacoma with 3" lowering rear blocks added (the way he described it) so I must assume its an axle over the springs design from the factory.
it also has an aftermarket blacked out tube grill insert so if I get it I would want to reverse it and restore the factory look and ride height.
im interested in learning what would I need to do to undo a lift or drop kit for any truck I might buy.
also are aftermarket replacement grilles made of decent quality and are there brands that should be avoided when searching for aftermarket replacement parts for lights, grilles, bumpers, and such?
