Hey Ivan! That does look like a standard 5-bolt brake flange. You can compare what you have to the measurements in the picture below just to be sure. If your axle tag is still on there somewhere it would be easier to identify the capacity. The Kodiak…

Hey Jarrod. There's 3-13/16" of usable space and threads inside the CE Smith U-Bolts item #CE15283GA-8. If your rails are only 2" wide you're going to have plenty of threads left after installing the CE Smith Bolster and Swivel…

Hey Nicholaos, thanks for reaching out! I can definitely help you out with some suspension enhancement for your 2015 Toyota Tacoma, but anything we have to offer will be far from what you're thinking will turn heads. Our kits are designed more…
