DRT Fabrication 2005-2023 Tacoma/2010-2024 4Runner Fabricated Spindles

Why Upgrade?

Most bolt-on long travel kits today reuse the factory spindles—leaving a critical weak link in your suspension system. The DRT Fabrication fabbed spindle eliminates this weak point, giving you the missing link in building a bulletproof suspension package.

This design is based on the factory spindle with no geometry changes, meaning it is compatible with any bolt-on long travel kit designed for OEM spindles (both 2WD & 4WD Tacoma). All non-Tacoma models will require a Tacoma bottom taper misalignment from your UCA manufacturer.

Strength & Construction:

• Built from 3/16" & 1/4" A36 steel plate with internal gussets.
• 100% MIG welded for maximum durability.

Steering:

• Standard dual-shear heim steering (outer only) with correct heim center placement—unlike aftermarket conversions that alter geometry.
• Works with factory inner/outer tie rods and steering extenders.
• Includes 3/4" FK JMX12T heim, custom high-angle misaligns, and a rubber boot cover for protection.

Hub Block & Brake Integration:

• Machined from billet steel with integrated caliper mounts.
• ABS sensor relocated behind caliper bracket—protected from damage.
• Stress risers minimized with extensive filleting.

Finish

• Powder coated satin black for a clean, durable finish.
