Here’s what happen to my uncles truck when it went on a lift. I’m not trying to scare you, just don’t want you to put time and money into a truck to find out the frame is
bad.

Yeah I've seen posts like that all the time. Theres no denying the frame is rusty on this Tacoma, but for $1,600 I can't complain!

No idea, but the truck only has 195k on it. I looked up service history and the supercharger has been on the truck since at least 90k. The bearings do not make any noise, and the coupler doesn't have any play in it either. I'm just going to repaint and install it the way it is, and if it acts up I'll opt for the rebuild.

I wish but being a 2002 I believe this model year Tacoma is out of luck on a frame swap.
