We at ORS want to let you all know that we still have the ORS shock hoops. They are a very easy and economical way to improve off-road capability, no matter whether you are rock crawling or light pre-running. The hoops allow you to run 14" stroke shocks, and with the lower shock mounts sitting behind the axle you gain travel that shames the OEM specs! Also, to make them durrable, the hoops are made out of 1.75 x .120 DOM tube. All orders are bent and cut to fit per application here in shop and all the hardware and gusett plates are included as well. As a promotion, we are putting them on sale for $137 as opposed to the regular $185! That's a $49 savings! see them here (http://www.offroadsolutions.com/products/suspension.htm#tacoma_coilover_systems).

One factor working against long travel in the rear suspension is the original shock mounts. With the shock absorbers in the original location, the leaf springs strike the shock bodies, causing damage and limiting travel. The mounts are also too close together to accommodate a long travel shock. The ORS rear long travel shock mount set solves this problem by moving the shocks away from the springs and placing the mounting points further apart. This weld-in kit includes the upper hoop, lower mounts, gusset plates, and all necessary hardware. This kit allows the use of 12-14" travel shock absorbers, depending on ride height and application.
