Shop 2016–2023 Toyota Tacoma Suspension & Lift Kits

The 3rd Gen Toyota Tacoma utilizes an independent front suspension (IFS) paired with a traditional rear leaf spring setup. Lifting these trucks requires premium components that increase ground clearance while maintaining the comfortable highway ride quality Tacomas are famous for.

  • Front Coilovers & Shocks: High-performance, bolt-on coilovers engineered for reliable 1-inch to 3-inch lifts. We carry remote reservoir and extended-travel coilovers built to survive punishing, high-speed washboard trails.
  • Upper Control Arms (UCAs): Heavy-duty tubular upper control arms designed to restore perfect alignment geometry, maximize wheel travel, and correct caster angles after a lift.
  • Heavy-Load Coil Springs: Upgraded, heavy-rate front coils specifically engineered to handle the constant front-end weight of aftermarket steel bumpers and winches.
  • Sway Bar Relocation: Dedicated front sway bar drop and relocation kits to prevent the sway bar from contacting larger coilover bodies at full droop.

Premium Rear Shocks & Leaf Spring Enhancements

Keep your truck level and your cargo controlled with rear suspension components matched to your specific payload requirements:

  • Matched Damping Shocks: Premium rear shocks designed for stock height up to 2-inch lifts, ensuring even valving and damping from front to back.
  • Remote Reservoirs: Extended oil capacity rear shocks that resist heat fade during long, rough backcountry journeys.
  • Leaf Spring Accessories: High-durability polyurethane leaf spring bushings and specialized air spring cradles for lifted trucks running bellows-style air helper bags.

Tacoma Frame Reinforcement & Alignment Upgrades

Hard hits on tight Alberta trails can easily knock a 3rd Gen Tacoma out of alignment, causing uneven tire wear or permanent damage to thin factory components. We stock heavy-duty reinforcement hardware to lock in your settings and protect your IFS architecture.

  • Alignment Cam & Tab Kits: High-strength replacement cam bolts and heavy-duty cam tab upgrades that use multiple alignment points to prevent your lower control arms from shifting under impact.
  • Cam Tab Gussets: Weld-on gusset kits designed to reinforce the notoriously weak and thin factory alignment tabs on the frame.
  • Spindle Gussets & Braces: Heavy-duty front spindle gusset kits featuring integrated steering arm braces to stop spindle bending under the weight of oversized tires.
  • Clamshell Bushing Upgrades: The ultimate fix for the common 3rd Gen Tacoma front differential vibration—replacing the sloppy factory driver-side needle bearing with a rock-solid 8-inch differential clamshell bushing.
  • Extended Brake Lines: Braided stainless steel rear brake lines that provide the critical extra length required when your rear axle drops away from the frame during maximum trail articulation.

FAQs - We've Got Answers

What years are considered the 3rd Gen Toyota Tacoma?

The 3rd Gen Toyota Tacoma spans the 2016 to 2023 model years. Many core mechanical suspension and drivetrain components in this collection are shared across these years, and several parts also offer cross-compatibility with the 5th Gen Toyota 4Runner platform.

Do 3rd Gen Toyota Tacoma parts fit the new 2024–2026 Tacoma?

No. Starting in 2024, Toyota completely redesigned the Tacoma on the new 4th Gen TNGA-F global truck platform. Because this newer platform features an entirely different frame, multi-link rear suspension layout, and powertrain configuration, 3rd Gen accessories will not fit. Always verify a part specifies 2024+ fitment for newer trucks.

Do 2nd Gen Tacoma parts fit a 2016–2023 3rd Gen Tacoma?

Yes, many core suspension and underside components are interchangeable between the 2nd and 3rd Gen platforms. Premium front coilovers, rear shocks, upper control arms, and underbody skid plates share identical fitment from 2005 all the way up to 2023. However, exterior components like front bumpers, A-pillar ditch light brackets, and body mount kits are strictly 3rd Gen specific due to body style updates.

Does a lifted 3rd Gen Tacoma require a sway bar relocation kit?

Yes. When you install upgraded performance coilovers, the larger outer diameter of the shock body will contact the factory sway bar during suspension travel. Installing a sway bar relocation kit drops and moves the bar forward, restoring an optimal, binding-free working angle on trucks lifted 2 to 3 inches.

Do performance extended-travel coilovers require aftermarket upper control arms?

Yes. Extended-travel coilovers provide extra down-travel that will cause the factory upper control arm to bind against the coil spring. Upgrading to aftermarket tubular upper control arms provides the necessary clearance, eliminates ball joint binding, and delivers the added caster correction needed to properly align a lifted 2016–2023 Tacoma.

Do Tacoma rock sliders fit all cab and bed configurations?

No. Rock sliders must match your truck's specific wheel base, cab type, and bed length to line up with the frame. The premium rock sliders in this collection are sized specifically for Double Cab configurations. Always verify your exact cab and bed dimensions with the Four Wheel Freedom team before ordering.

Does the in-cab ARB air compressor mount fit an Access Cab Tacoma?

No. This specific onboard air compressor bracket is engineered exclusively for the Double Cab configuration. The bracket is custom-designed to bolt directly into the factory plastic storage pocket located right behind the driver-side rear seat, a feature unique to Double Cab interior layouts.
