The new control arms aren’t just a strength issue. More importantly they corrects the ball joint angles and depending on the UCA increases travel. You can run stock UCAs but will see premature wear on the ball joints and depending on the coilover they may bottom out and hit the spring.

Man, I went back to almost stock with my tires. Love the added range.

I'd love to have a Tacoma. One with a manual transmission would be awsome. No oversize tires for me though. I'd undercoat it. Drive it up and down the beach. That's the only aftermarket I would need.

I really want to put mud terrains and fox suspension on my truck now. Such a cool set up. Well done!

Brings tears to my eyes to see truck lifts being done the right way. I see so many nightmare lifts and the results afterwards.

I love the video editing! Smooth visual and audio transitions and the video was to the point! It's great seeing the benefits of your channel growth! And of course the taco looks sick! Nice work!

Inside and outside is just perfect!

I love Tacoma’s and you guys killed it with these upgrades

Great job Mateo. You continue to stick your chest out for the latin community. Again, great job young man and congratulations on all your achievements. Keep it up!

My dream car/truck of all time! I wouldn’t trade it for any supercar! Thanks for the video!

Love this truck build. Good job guys

Joseph from Uganda I love the way you biff up those machines they look like they should be driven on planet Mars

I just put new rims and tires on my gen 2 Tacoma and I can’t tell you how much I love it more, I’m a Tacoma fanatic and these news tires glide across the road and get amazing grip in the dirt and sand.

Love the way you handle that UCA at 2:54

Wow so nice to watch this turns into awesome truck....hope have this in future...love it guys!!!!

I’ve had BFG K02 and now I have Nitto ridge grapplers they are sick!

Perfect build just right !

I have to say that the way you guys bent the inner fender out of the way for the UCL bolt was WAYYY overkill. I did the lift on my 2017 DCSB myself and never damaged the paint. I just wrapped a thick leather welding glove around the panel, and clamped a piece of 1/8" thick steel scrap on either side between the channel lock jaws, and bent the panel enough for the bolt head to slip by (twice). After the bolt was removed, UCA swapped, and bolt replaced, I used the same method and bent the panel back into place. No damage!

Great job bro. Can't wait to see what's next!

That is great, looking forward to see what rear gear you put on

Awesome build but I feel like for any off-road adventure trail or prerunning I prefer the beadlocks but If this is a daily driver then it’s pretty clean but kinda wouldve done like a black and maybe grey wheel. My hometown white 3rd yotas everyone has all black wheels. But like mine the cement color I threw on the fuel covert black/bronze wheels and oh man it’s a head turner everywhere I go

Best video on utube! Johnathan is a beast👌!!!!. I searched 4 years for a simple detailed video and I just found it. Kudos 👏 💐 man.

Taco is looking sick 🤘🤘 And thanks for the reminder that I need to update/upgrade the control arms on my '02 4Runner (need to refresh the suspension from what I did 9yrs ago).

You should have gotten the Marlin Crawler RCLT front suspension kit if you're spending that much anyway. Then you can fit 40's because they actually move the spindle forward 2".

10:11, that's a lot of weight. if those are .50oz weights that's 9.00oz as a static, but BFG isn't know for being the roundest in the industry. Do appreciate the build quality.

Re gearing it with lockers would be the best mod

Man!! It looks awesome! A dream truck 😍

Wow amazing ... napakagandang pick up..salute to you guys ... my dream truck.. god bless ride safe olways..

I love these guys .. They know what to do and how to get the best result. Well done :)

My favorite truck🥰🥰🥰much love from Nepal 🇳🇵🙏😊

Fingers CROSSED!!! just placed an order. Build looks epic!

That’s a beautiful looking truck!❤

As a mechanic I love watching these types of videos.

I see a blown stock steering box and over bent rear springs coming for this truck if it is ran off road like this. Why not spend a few more bucks and do a U-Bolt flip kit, with longer bump stops, extended brake lines, and ECGS bushing for the front axle before calling the suspension swap complete? Also, that CMC was horrid! In the future, don't waste your time with a precut cmc fill piece, unless you can actually cut the correct amount of material to match it. Just cut out the material you want removed, clean up the cut and then tap a piece of cardboard against the new opening. Use this CAD (cardboard aided drafting) as a template to cut out the replacement piece. Booom, Bob's your uncle!

Gonna be an awesome build!

I love it. Awesome build 🤘👍

Love these damn videos brother! Man I wish I could afford this truck! My family needs it more than ever! Heck I’d do anything to own this

Holy smoke. Great job showing everyone exactly the type of shop to stay away from. After watching this there is not a chance I would have these guys touch my truck.

Nice upgrade looks rock.

I don't have a Toyota, but I occasionally watch your videos. You do a great job and I'm liking the way this Tacoma's looking. Keep up the good work.

This truck is going to look so SICK double parked at a Walmart parking lot, can't wait to see it out in the wild!

What’s up brotha. The truck looks amazing and it’s cool adding all those upgrades. But people never mention anything about the engine. That power train is very weak, even at stock form, so I can only Imagine the stress it goes through when you add the lift, tires and all your gear. How well does it run after the transformation?

Just wit the lift is so sick!!!

That Tacoma is going to be a beast!! I’m finally getting a little closer to having some money and building one next year!! This is my dream!

u definitely need to re gear bro. thats your first priority after changing to oversized tires.

Tacoma is a CMC or cab mount chop not body mount chop like on a 4 runner. I would have most definitely done a u bolt flip kit and upgraded the bump stops. And what’s the plan on regear? This set up won’t even touch 5-6 gear on the freeway with oem high gearing.

The truck looks amazing 🤩

Really nice improvement of this Tacoma 👍

Man I miss my Taco… I hope the new one fits 6’ 4” people better

You all did a really nice job. Sadly, as a former 2017 Tacoma V6 owner I can tell you that unless that truck was a manual transmission those giant heavy tires are going to make that already gear hunting transmission an absolute nightmare. I put 33's on mine and it barely had enough power to keep it at 75-80 on the highway. It wouldn't go any faster than 90 there just wasn't enough HP and torque. At 35 inch tires....can you even do 75?

Love watching these guys! Definitely would love to have a future truck like that!

Very nice truck, wish I could afford to have my 2015 Tacoma Sport DCSB done like this.

You guys should really be using a torque wrench on something as crucial as suspension. Especially on a giveaway truck.

I still think 33in tires are a sweet spot for a Taco.

one of the best tacoma’s i’ve ever seen keep up the good work

Awesome video, great tutorial. Would totally love this truck!!!

Having a truck or any car right now would clear all my problems in life

Those upper control arm bushings are definitely failing prematurely. You need to make sure suspension is at ride height before tightening upper and lower control arm bushings.

beautiful truck loved those rims

crazy build man!!

Ive got concerns with how the body mount chop was welded and not on the top

No way that you bought all this for $7500 unless you got deals below dealer price.

thats freaking awsome. year of the beast. lets goooooooooooooo!!!

God blessed you guys always and have a great and wonderful moment and be safe every day and bless the video that you upload thanks for sharing ❤️

10 things wrong in this video 1. did not show any torque spec, basically just run them with an impact-no torque wrench is shown in the video. 2.did not torqued suspension at ride height-- you will get premature on the upper control arm bushings and rear squeaky old man emu 3. 1.6degree caster is consider too low for tacoma-your ride quality will suffer on highway. 4. base on the video on the wheel weights,- i see static balance on the wheel, maybe 3 rows of stickers, assuming each one is 0.5,thats a bit too much on the ,maybe try to do a 90 degree turn of 180degrees to bring down the wheel weights. 5.when compressing the coil over-maybe put a tape or somesort so you dont damaged the nice finishes on the brand new coil 6.when balancing tacoma wheels-- its consider a lug centric wheels, so if you balance with hub centric , you might get vibration 7.when your pry the body to get the bolt out, you dont need to pry that much to get it out.just need a slight pry on it. 8.maybe consider showing people install a needle bearings on the diff and prop shaft spacer to eliminate driveline vibration 9.when installed u bolts on the rear - you should retorque them after few miles 10.if you do this for long enough, every tacoma with 3 inch lift, you should able to adjust the caster and camber when your doing the front strut-it will be somewhere silmiar. and also i wouldnt recommend do the alignment right away--- i would drive it and wait for the suspension settles after 50-150km before doing alignment-- and yes -your ride height will lower a bit. 11.not a welder myself,but base on the video,the weld looks very weak and crappy. and yes i installed many many suspension on 4runners and tacoma before not trying to bash the video, but if your showing people how to do it in the driveway,--maybe at least show them the proper procedure. instead of just uggu dugga,that just my 2 cents.

You don't have to beat the F out of the spindle and leave marks to separate the balljoints. sloppy af

Looks lot cooler than the stock - can’t wait until u finish the rest of the upgrades….

Great video guys keep them coming.

35" tires on that tacoma is such a terrible idea. The engine and gearing is terrible, that will be such a frustrating vehicle to drive. Also enjoy the 13 mpg on a engine with no power.

I love it the New look of Tacoma, very Bulky and when you drive that truck you look awesome.... Very good and Nice.... I hope drive that truck.... Good job Sir

Learning alot. Thx guys

Can’t stop dreaming of this vehicle

🔥🔥🔥 Such an awesome truck!

Sweet looking truck!

Can’t stop watching this video. 👏👏

I loved the upgrade!

Truck is looking awesome

Wow, awesome I like the look, totally amazing track 👍👍👍

Nothing like the Taco. Cheers 🍻

Can't wait to see what's next!

I hope they release this into the Aussie market!!! Mate i want one

Those wheels looks mean.good work

Good video. Great selection of parts.

looks like a real beast now

Love this truck build .Great job bro..🔥🔥

I freaking love it Mateo!! You’re my role model!!

He brought in dude like there was a pro way of removing that bolt ! 😆

I love the color and setup of this Truck, Tacoma is best for OffRoad trail.

Turned out awesome!!

Nice coma! Hey just an FYI the 1" of preload you added to the coil-over equates to 2" of lift since it's a 2 to 1 ratio. Also when you upgrade the leaf springs you can actually cut down the rubber bump stop to compensate for the the extra height of the leaf pack. I know it doesn't sound like much but the rear suspension on these trucks already under performs, so an inch of up travel helps a lot.

That mechanic is a beast! He knows wassup

It's a wonderful projekt. Send this to Germany, I would represent your work and would be glad to ride it offroad around Germany.

I’ve been in the market for one but they are very expensive I wish I had the money I’d use this for my business and to take my 1yr old off-roading and camping. beautiful truck 🙌🏽❤️

It was worth watching enjoyed ✨

I Love Tacoma! I hope we have here in the Phils.

Amazing work

Awesome upgrade!

Can't wait to have it in my garage

love this truck!!

What a build 🎉
