Description

The Tuff Country 55912 Front Differential Drop Kit is a purpose-built solution for Toyota Tacoma 4WD owners who lift their trucks. It relocates the front differential to maintain proper driveline angles after a 3–6 inch suspension lift, helping CV axles operate smoothly and preserving ride quality both on and off the road.

  • Fits with 3–6 inch lift kits: designed to work with common Tacoma lift heights to prevent driveline binding.
  • Lowers the front differential: relocates the differential downward to correct CV angles after lifting.
  • Direct bolt-on installation: straightforward, no custom fabrication required in most applications; typical installation around 30 minutes.
  • Includes mounting hardware: kit provides the necessary components to relocate the front differential.
  • Warranty: backed by a one-year warranty for materials and craftsmanship.
  • Made in the USA: manufactured domestically for durability and reliability.
  • Vehicle compatibility: specifically designed for 2005–2023 Toyota Tacoma 4WD models.
  • Brand legacy: from a longtime suspension specialist focused on affordable, reliable off-road solutions since 1988.

By lowering the front differential, the kit reduces binding on CV axles when the Tacoma is lifted and helps preserve CV joints and driveline components. It also improves driveline angles, which translates to quieter operation and more stable handling both on pavement and over rough terrain. This relocation kit is a practical upgrade that complements 3–6 inch lifts, delivering predictable performance and longer-term drivetrain health for daily driving and ambitious off-road adventures alike.
