We have spent the last several years on the trail in coilover suspension equipped Toyotas. We have also helped many sets of coilover shocks find their way under Toyotas. We have seen tough trails, and we have seen extreme trails. Here at ORS, we've had some good schooling about building a coilover multi-link suspension that works. We are ready to pass this education onto our fellow wheelers. We are very proud to introduce the ORS Coilover Suspension Systems.

These are not "good enough" multi link suspension systems. These are serious suspension systems, designed to be used. These suspensions were not designed to sell by the truckload. They were not intended for the entire 4WD market. These suspensions were designed for those who want to abuse their rig on the rocks. Why are these systems the best?

• Superior vehicle control, even at a crawl
• Improved articulation
• Front axle wrap eliminated
• Fine tuning ability
• Front axle moves forward during compression for better tire to firewall clearance
• Superior strength by design and components
• Improved ride characteristics
• And, yes, the cool factor, or bling, or whatever you call it...

Heavy duty describes the ORS Coilover System. After witnessing many trail failures on average size components we added strength in every area.

Our lower control arms are constructed from 2.25" x .375 wall DOM tube. They are fitted with 1.25" heim joints or 2.5" x 1.25" Johnny Joints at one end and oversized polyurethane bushings at the other. We don't want them to bend when you slam down on that pointy, unseen rock.

Our upper control arms are constructed of 1.75" x .250 wall DOM tubing. They are fitted with .825" heim joints or 2.5" x 1" Johnny Joints at one end and oversized polyurethane bushings at the other.

The Heim Joint Systems are for those who truly want their suspension to be overkill. The heim joints we use can be found on hardcore off road racing vehicles due to their amazing strength. The Johnny Joint Systems offer a more economic option while still providing exceptional strength. Johnny Joints can be found on the rigs of many professional rock crawlers. The Johnny Joints also offer the advantage of being re-buildable.

All components are computer designed. All brackets are made from 1/4" or 3/16" steel and are CNC laser cut for precision. These brackets aren't weakly attached to your rig. All major mounting points are plated, sleeved, and/or generously braced.

How about geometry? Our lower control arms stretch near the 40" mark, re-defining a "long-arm" system. Geometry is derived from of a combination of real-world experience and computer design, to provide flexibility and traction while keeping the vehicle under control in varied off road situations.

14" travel coilover shocks are the star in this show. Our systems are designed around 14" travel 2.0" or 2.5" diameter remote-reservoir coilover shocks. That's a lot of shock. But when you go this far modifying your rig, these shocks become the "norm." Sheet-metal mounts don't seem to be enough to fully support the abuse that you may bring upon these shocks. This system uses 1.75" x .120W DOM pre-bent shock hoops, with 1/4" shock mounting tabs, 3/16" gusset plates, and optional shock hoop tube braces.

Note: Air shocks can also be used with these systems. However, the front-end of these trucks tend to be a little "heavy" for air shocks.

These systems are designed to convert a suspension from independent or leaf spring to a multi-link configuration. Cutting, grinding, welding and automotive skills will be required by the installer. An installer with fabrication and automotive experience is highly recommended. The ORS Coilover Suspension Systems are only as good as the installation. Difficulty of installation parallels that of performing a leaf sprung solid axle swap.

These kits were intended for rock crawling and off-road use only. Check your local laws before using these systems on road. Any suspension (including leaf springs) that is not "bolt-on" is not street-legal in many areas. The purchaser/installer of these systems accepts all responsibility for the use and abuse of this system on and off-road.

Note: Coilover kits available for in house install starting @ $2600

If you don't find quite what you need here call us! We would be happy to customize a kit to suit your needs! Many parts are also offered individually.

We are proud to announce our long-awaited ’95.5-‘04 Tacoma 4x4 Front Coilover Solid Axle Swap Kit. This kit is based on years of R&D not only with coilover suspension, but also Tacomas in particular. This system is designed to be used and abused. This is also a very complete and comprehensive kit. Everything has been thought of and designed for a simple install.

• Long-arm system utilizing 3 lateral links and a panhard bar. Lower control arms are 39" long (center of bolt to center of bolt).
• Based around 14" travel coilover shocks.
• Lower control arms constructed of 2.25"x .375wall DOM tube with 1.25" Heim Joints or 2.5" Johnny Joints on one end and 2" oversized polyurethane bushings on the other.
• Upper control arm constructed of 1.75" x .250wall DOM tube with a .875" heim joint or 2.5" Johnny Joint on one end and a 2" oversized polyurethane bushing on the other.
• Panhard bar constructed of 1.75" x .250wall DOM tube with a .875" heim joint at one end and a polyurethane bushing on the other.
• All brackets are CNC laser cut from 1/4" or 3/16" steel.
• The front section of the frame is completely plated for strength and elimination of the factory "crumple zone". Many mounts are also sleeved for even more strength.
• Complete w/ bumpstops, limit straps, and mounting brackets to control suspension movement.

What stands our kit out from the competition?

• All kits are based around 14" travel high-quality Fox Racing Shocks
• Bumpstops and limit straps are not only offered but included in all kits. This keeps the suspension under control and protects those expensive components.
• Longer control arms for improved geometry and control
• Frame fully plated and crumple zone is eliminated
• HD steering provisions built into frame plating and included in all kits
• Stronger control arm setup, 2.25" x .375wall DOM tubing
• The strongest bracket attachment available. All frame brackets are plated or sleeved at their mounting points.
• High quality brake plumbing kit is available

This kit is available for the Diamond Axe Housing with a Toyota 8" center-section. The minimum required Wheel Mounting Surface width of this housing is 67" for 36" and larger tires and 64" for 35" or smaller tires. These housing were selected to match our kit because they are some of the most rugged housings we have found in rockcrawling and some of the only housings that can stand up to the abuse that a truck with this suspension can dish out.

Here is a list of the other parts or components required for the Tacoma system that are not included in our suspension system:

• Diamond axle housing w/ all internal components

•Tacoma Crossmember
$239.00 
This Tacoma crossmember from Front Range Off Road works with single or dual cases, 4 cyl or V6, manual or automatic! It will also work on vehicles equipped with push-button 4WD! Brackets are welded to the frame, and can be raised or lower as desired.

•ORS Shock Hoop Brace
$149.95 ORS-SP344
The ORS Shock Hoop Brace is recommended for applications that will see some abuse. Not only will it distribute the shock forces between both sides of the frame but it will stiffen up the frame in general, giving the front end of the truck additional strength. This Brace has flanges that allow the center section to unbolt for engine service. This brace will fit with supercharged and non-supercharged V6 engines.

•ORS 3.4L Dipstick Drill Guide
$45.00 ORS-EC093 
As many may know, the '00 and newer versions of the Toyota 3.4L require a hole be drilled into the block to accept the dipstick tube during a rear sump oil pan installation, such as during an engine swap or live axle conversion.

After tediously drilling many holes ourselves, we developed a drill guide to assist this operation. Simply bolt it on and drill your hole. Truly worth it's weight in gold......

The kit includes the necessary sleeves and hardware. 3/8” drill bit NOT included.

$45 Retail $15, $5, $30 with the purchase of an ORS Oil Pan Conversion kit, Tacoma Solid Axle Coilover Kit, or 3.4L Conversion Kit. Call for special price.

•Fox Steering Stabilizer Kit
$165.00 ORS-SP346
We offer this Fox steering stabilizer for those who will be seeing street use and do not have hydraulic assist. The amount of movement and dampening this suspension is capable of calls for a stabilizer of the same caliber. This is one of the few nitrogen-charged stabilizers on the market and is designed for trucks with large tires. Stabilizer comes complete with weld-on mounting tabs and hardware.

•Diamond Axle Housing, 8" Toyota differential, birfield outers
$900
This axle housing is ready for the abuse that a truck with the ORS Coilover Suspension System can dish out. It is constructed of 3.5" x .375 wall DOM Tube, 1/2" steel at the differential flange, and 1/4" CNC formed steel at the "cover". We feel this is superior to the Dana 60 and Dana 44 housings because it is one solid part and cannot "separate" and "flex" like we have found the Dana housings to do. This housing also integrates additional inner axle seals at the differential to prevent premature inner seal failure. Also available w/ Ford 9" differential, Dana 60 outers, FJ80 outers. If not ordering your axle from ORS, be sure to check with ORS for the proper ordering specs to work with our kit. For more info, check out www.diamondaxle.com.

**All kit components are available separately, please call for pricing**

For those starting with a leaf-sprung equipped vehicle and a high-steer crossover steering system, the full kits probably offer what is needed to convert. For those starting with a stock suspension, a high-steer crossover steering system will be necessary. This kit is designed to work with the common systems found on the market. If using the '79-'85 Toyota axle housing, 1.5" or wider front wheel spacers are required. If a 3.0L engine is in place, the oil pan kit will be necessary to clear the suspension and steering.

The ORS brake system is also recommended for all customers. Traditionally the front brakes are plumbed by 1 hose at each wheel. This method still works, but the hose is in danger of being pinched between the coil springs during suspension compression, spelling disaster. The ORS system routes the brake plumbing down the upper control arm where it is split at the axle. At each wheel there is a short hose from the axle to the caliper, keeping the hose out of harm's way.

This kit is designed to fit the '79-'85 Toyota "minitruck" front axle or the Diamond Axle housing. ORS highly recommends the Diamond Axle. This axle is offered to accept a Toyota differential and ends, or a Ford 9" differential and Dana 60 ends. This axle can be built to any width and cures many common problems found with the '79-'85 Toyota axle housings:

• Diamond housing can be built wider to keep the tires out of the suspension and body, also providing more stability
• Diamond housings are built from 3.5" x .375 wall DOM tube and 1/4" - 1/2" steel plate. They are engineered to be exceptionally strong in all off-road situations, which means bending or busting housings is a thing of the past.

ORS offers these housing direct to the public. Please call with any questions or check out more info at www.diamondaxle.com.

This kit requires the use of a Front Range Off-Road crossmember, ORS Crossmember or a custom crossmember. The bottom of the frame must be cleared. If using a gear drive (4 cylinder) Toyota transfer case ORS recommends the Front Range Off-Road crossmember setup. If using the stock 3.0L transfer case we recommend the ORS crossmember.

The following kits and sets are designed for either a '79-'85 Toyota 4x4 / 4Runner axle housing or a Diamond axle housing. Please specify upon ordering.

Please read kit information at the top of this page before purchasing

•Off Road Solutions Rear Long Travel Shock Mount
$137 - Special $185.00 - '95.5-'04 Tacoma 

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.
