Just got my new billet aluminum rear links for the truck! 74Weld recently dropped these. You can buy them individually, but I got the entire rear kit. They offer everything you need. Rear upper and lower links, and the panhard/track bar. The new coil spring rear end is great, but the rear links and their components are especially vulnerable. I dragged them on a bunch of rocks last year in Colorado and bent my rear lower driver's side pretty good. So these are a welcome upgrade. In the future, 74 said they will release an adjustable set. These are technically prototypes, with the adjustable ones expected to be released later this month. They're offered in raw aluminum, black, and malibu gray. I really like the joints they chose. They are similar to OEM in that they are mainly rubber, but offer better articulation and support. Heims and stuff like that are cool, but they need WAY more maintenance. This setup is built to last. Quick specs and features... - CNC machined 6061 aluminum - anodized for protection and corrosion resistance - maintenance free Rock Krawler Adventure Series flex joints - fits all new gen Toyotas and GX550 Links to everything below... https://motorsports.74weld.com/product/new-gen-toyota-billet-rear-lower-links/ https://motorsports.74weld.com/product/new-gen-toyota-billet-rear-track-bar/ https://motorsports.74weld.com/product/new-gen-toyota-billet-rear-upper-links/ I love the etched out 74Weld logo. My bent rear lower link... Killer packaging. Everything came individually wrapped with foam, etc. No damage at all!

I was recently able to have a TRD Pro and Trailhunter Tacoma side by side while at a Toyota event in West Virginia. I like aspects of each, but I think that I would choose a the Pro over a TH if I was to purchase one of these in the future. The suspension and ISO seats just made for a better driving experience both on and off road. Plus I like the exterior of the Pro a bit more than the Trailhunter as well. Weirdly though I like the interior of the TH over the Pro though. I break this all down in my video below!
