i used a smaller brake booster and moved my clutch master cyl up and over towards the brake booster.i'm tubbed and i should be able to lay out on 20s maybe 22's. i dont have the money to buy a wheel that big so i'll never know if they'll truly fit. but all the measurements look as if i can. movin the brake booster is one way to do it, and i'm sure you put a lot of time and effort in movin it out front like that, but i think its kinda ghetto. sorry dude, just my opinion. i definitely wouldn't have a 3" piece of drill stem stickin off my firewall and movin my brake booster almost to the radiator support. why didn't you just use a smaller booster or maybe even shave it off the firewall completely and put it under the cab. on a cheap bag job tryin to fit 20s on a taco that idea works with the pipe and movin the booster forward. but on a true show truck that shit just wouldn't fly. you do great work pal, i'm not knockin you.. that booster idea just wouldn't have been my route.

i agree with Harvey, it just seems outta place in the middle of the engine bay, what booster did you use on your taco adam?

one out of a camry. old 90 model i think. i've heard geo prizim'z are tiny and fit with little modification. they are like 8" diameter. mine was much smaller than stock. plus i got the correct offset on my wheels, i'm runnin 19x9.5's up front and mine dont even rub the side of my brake booster. if you measure and get the perfect offset on your wheels, you aint gotta screw with it all that much. he did show a lot of good points though, you DO have to move the steering rack-n-pinion up and you DO have to modify almost everything else in the front suspension to lay out on bog wheels, but i think there are a few prettier ways to fix a brake booster problem, oh and my answer to the ABS crap, i X'ed it. i took that crap completely out. i looked at an 02 tacoma, the only difference is the lines came outta the distribution blocks from the master cyl and went to the ABS box. so i just took the abs out and ran my lines exactly like the older tacomas do. i did have to plug one port on my distribution block on my frame with an 1/8" brass inverted flare fitting. no big deal there. but all in all the only difference is, i dont have ABS anymore, its just like the pre 03 models. and YES it does stop just fine. be sure to bleed your brake lines properly though

no offense takin but when a customer wants a daily driver with no change in brake effort, abs to work perfectly, and to fit up 22's. i do what the customer wants. i agree it does look out of place up by the core support but it works. and so does the clutch master inside the cab. if it was a complete show truck the booster would be different due to the fact that it wouldnt get drivin everyday. try driving a truck with a geo booster in L.A. traffic. your calves would look like popeyes.
