I was wondering if I go with dropped spindles and want more than a 2" drop upfront, and use 1" lowered springs, will there be any kind of negative effects or stress on the ball joints? Please fill me in.

no one makes drop spindlel's for our taco's but there are flip kits for us. if you want just a 3" drop up front you wont need drop springs because just flipng it will give you a 3" drop. you can flip the ball joints your self for free. but say if you get the djm kit you will drop 3" retaining all fatory specs, versus no kit with a little neg camber.

<== my taco has a djm 3/4 drop on it.

You have the 3/4 kit you said. Did you need to get upper control arms as well? Or are they not needed? The 3/4 kit comes with only the lower control arms, correct? + the blocks of course.

Yes, Upper control arms, n a ball flip. No spindles for us yet...

 

[Aldo]

You did a ball joint flip? If so, was it necessary?

 

[2000taco]

the kit comes with the upper control arms not lower control arms. all it does is correct the camber for your alignment. blocks in the rear and put smaller bump stops, dont forget new shocks.

i wanna flip my b/j...but the camber gets thrown off? to correct this i would need the uppser control arms? how much are those?>

 

[2000taco]

for the djm expect to pay no less then $200.00 w/o shocks & shipping for it.

 

[Kpride7]

Order from godfather customs, they have a better price than djm for some odd reason...

 

[Aldo]

I am looking into getting the DJM 3/3 or 3/4 kit from godfathers. Another question, are shock extenders needed for the rear shocks? Please inform me.

 

[2000taco]

no you dont need extenders, you just need new shorter shocks like djm,toxic, or doeshtech.
