I have a 2002 taco V6 5spd. 4x4, 3 in revtek spacer lift 33x12.50 BFG at's.
My problem is that the bushings on the lower shock/coil mount are wearing out quickly. The truck has 92,000 miles. I can understand the orig. shock bushings going, but I just purchased one new shock(auto zone) and with in2-3 months that shock bushing is coming apart.
Does any body else have this problem? I know the best thing would be to get some hoes, kings, or sway-a-ways but I cant afford those now(Working student). Do you think that getting one new one and having the old one, wore out the new bushing? I think the cure for now would to buy two new shocks and install them at the same time, I just don't want the new shocks bushing to come apart in 6 mo., and compressing the coil is a bi*ch with the Rental coil compressors.
Please let me know your thoughts.THX

spring compressor issue. Probably better to just take them in to Napa and have them change out the springs. Saves your fingers
