If you're looking to buy a Toyota mini truck lowering kit online, this is the complete front and rear solution built for this platform.
Ductile iron lowering spindles are the correct way to lower the front of a torsion-suspended Toyota pickup; they reposition the hub lower on the spindle to achieve the 2-inch drop while maintaining proper front suspension geometry and ride quality. At the rear, Gorilla fabricated steel blocks are tapered for correct pinion angle, powder-coated against rust, and guaranteed never to break, with zinc-plated grade OEM 1541 U-bolts and all SAE grade hardware included. The Nitro Slammer shocks complete the kit with enhanced street handling performance proven to handle the lowered stance.

Fitment: Compatible with 1984–1995 Gen 4 Toyota Pickup 2WD (torsion suspension). Please check our other listings for different drop heights and configurations.
The Gen 4 Toyota mini truck uses a torsion bar front suspension, a setup that requires spindle-based front lowering rather than the coil spring spacers or drop springs used on other platforms. Getting this right means using spindles engineered specifically for the Toyota torsion front end, which is exactly what this kit delivers. Dropped, aligned, and ready to cruise. Professional installation by a qualified technician with proper equipment is strongly recommended due to extreme suspension loads. Please inspect all parts before beginning installation.
