I don't know but I do know that a few 4th gen. 4Runner guys are using the Toytec spacers in conjunction with an OME lift ... if the Toytec spacers work on the 4th gen. 4Runner, then they should also fit the 05 Taco because the front suspensions are the same.

Haven't installed it myself, but from the ToyTec pictures, it looks similar to Revtek 3" spacers in terms of the amount of preload and topout. Being 6061 T6 aluminium alloy, they should be very strong, not compress, and not rust.

OK, so will this kit mess up my CV boots ala 04 and previous tacos lifted more than 2.5 up front?
Also, will this type of lift blow up my ball joints?
Thanks!

The 05+ Taco front is similar to the 03+ 4Runner front. SOme people have run 4" lifts with no diff drop and no issues. ALso your ball joints in the front will be fine if you use a lift like the Toytec/Revtek or even OME front. Below is a pic of my CVs with 3 1/4" lift with OMEs and some other stuff.The new frot starts like 2" lower than the previous generation so you can lift higher (need to to get the sam eground clearance)
