2005+ Tacoma Shackle hanger kit
*V2 hangers and crossbars are shipping and differ from images above. Crossbar now features billet crossbar and hangers have an additional hole to better fit longer leafs like Deaver and Allpro.*
The flimsy stock hangers on 2005+ Tacomas don’t allow the leaf springs to perform like they should. Causing a shuttering rear end, pre-mature wear and tear and sometimes even bending altogether. Pairing these with aftermarket leaf springs that yield more travel will unlock the handling characteristics that you’re looking for not only with improved geometry but by stiffening the hanger to prevent deflection. Allowing the leaf springs to perform like they should. The shackle pivot is moved back allowing the leaf springs to cycle through the wheel travel cleanly with improved geometry.

For those who want even more improvements we offer a crossbar. The crossbar increases frame and hanger rigidity by attaching to the hangers and a factory crossmember on the frame. This greatly reduces the frame flex Tacomas are known for. Stiffening the frame and hangers also improves the suspensions performance and provides peace of mind on those hard landings directly to the hangers while off-roading.
Made from 3/16 steel and 1.5" .120 tube and is tucked up high into the frame.
Provides a mounting point for a Baja designs rock light.
Powder coated satin black.
Crossbars can not be used with a spare tire.
DIY crossbar plates:
Include two plates. One plate for each each hanger and necessary hardware. No crossmember plates or tube included.
