Hi Rich!
We do have a couple options for your 2 wheel drive 2001 Toyota Tacoma, but the SumoSprings Custom Helper Springs - Rear Axle # SS89PV will only fit if you have the Pre-Runner. The same goes for the blue 1,400 pound SumoSprings Custom Helper Springs - Rear Axle # SS79PV. SO if you have a Pre-Runner model, you are good to go with either option.
If you do not have a Pre-Runner, you could run the Timbren Rear Suspension Enhancement System # TDVR05091. These are rated up to 2,000 pounds though and will end up being pretty harsh when you are not carrying a load.
We do also have the 500 pounds capacity Hellwig EZ-550 Helper Springs - Above Axle # HE72FR and 800 pound capacity SuperSprings Custom Suspension Stabilizer and Sway Control Kit # SSA1 which basically add a leaf spring to your pack. Not the same as the jounces, but they still do a pretty good job. And they can help with sway and body roll, which is nice.
What are you towing with your Tacoma?
