Let customers speak for us
from 108 reviewsFantastic ride quality and second to none build quality. Super easy to shipping to Canada. These are fantastic and I wish I did them sooner - very worth it!!
Amazing build quality with a very well designed bump stop - you need to get these.
These guys gave me great customer service and helped me out every step of the way even when they didn’t have to. Product is also of great quality and looks and works great on the truck!
Great build quality and design. Bump stops are softer than stock (which is good).
Great customer service! I was able to order and have the parts I needed shipped across the country in the same time I was quoted. I received a call back when there was a small issue with my order that would affect the delivery date as well. As a business, I will try and purchase more parts for future projects.
Good quality, just as expected!👍
Purchased all of the parts to convert my first gen Dodge to a 52" front spring and upgraded shocks. Parts are well built and look great. Shipping was fast and packaged well. The owner reached out personally after my order was placed to check on everything and make sure that I was happy with my order. Great products and very personable company. I will definitely be purchasing more products from Archive Garage.
Installed hammer hangers, shackles, and the high clearance cross brace on my 07 double cab TRD off road about 2 weeks ago. I have had top of the line Bilstein 8112 DSA+ coilovers up front and 8100 bypass shocks in the rear for about a year now and have always thought the truck was still missing something ride/suspension wise especially in the rear. This seems to have been the missing piece. The archive hangers are super well-made and are the epitome of quality metal fabrication. Removal of the factory hangers is by far the most difficult part of the install. My two notes to hopefully improve your install experience are 1.) cut the factory hanger off as close to the frame rail as possible. A good carbide sawzall blade can do this easily in under a minute and makes overall access and clearance for drilling much better. 2.) High quality drill bits are mandatory not optional (the archive ones get good feedback... I personally used the most expensive Milwaukee ones available at home depot). I found using a 18" Irwin Quick Grip style clamp to act as a literal "drill press" to apply the needed pressure to drill effectively was a huge help in drilling the factory rivets. Once the factory hangers are off the install is very easy. Post install, the truck definitely gained a ton of composure in the rear. With the rigidity of the rear shackle and leaf mounting point increased so much, road inputs actually are forced into the leaf spring and shock where you want them (a damped system) instead of deflecting the stock hanger around (a non-damped system). These are definitely a massive upgrade to the overall ride, composure, and handling for the tacoma and if you are the type of person spending significant time and money on things like shocks to improve these aspects of your truck the archive hammer hangers should be looked at as just as important to the overall equation as something like shocks. Great product overall and shipping was fast. Absolutely would recommend!
Installation was a breeze, gave my unloaded DCLB ~1-1.5” if I had to guess - I didn’t measure. I also removed Toyotas oem 1/2” spacers so I had an extra variable. Ride is barely noticeably firmer than stock springs with 5160 shocks. Off-road handling was great, nothing but positive experience thus far.
Arrived on time, well packed with nothing missing. Parts seem of high quality and fit well. Very good instructions are included for installing. I would buy this again.
Makes a huge difference in ride quality. Stiffens everything up real nice. Super quick install. A must do for superior driving experience.
Great product and easy install
We ordered the Tacoma HD Shackle Hangers for a customer build and quality of the product was amazing. Plus our customer loved it! Great job guys!!!!
Do it and don't think about it. Ride quality, clearance, and esthetics all improved. TacomaWorld for the win.
If you are considering the Archive Hangers, just do it. My truck is starting to feel like a sedan. The rear isnt as bouncy and much more stable. Best mod on the market, not sure why Toyota uses those wimpy stock hangers and shackles.
