    no those wont work. those are for the tacoma 95.5 is when the tacoma first came out.
    the front suspension design is different than the pickup suspension

    i didnt use any kit to do a ball joint flip. I did exactly what SD did minus the washers. I unbolted the ball joint from under the lca and place it on top of the lca. and if u want u can put some washers to give u a little more of a drop. make sure u place a jack under the lca or relieve the torsion bars. good luck man
