you might want to look on minitruckinweb.com for a project that Bobby Martins did on a 01-04 taco. He laid it on 20's in the article. Good luck.

On stock arms you can lay a 19 by flipping the bj's and pie cutting the upper arm to correct the balljoint angle (not required but a good idea).CanDo Arms help to lay on any size wheel, look way cleaner and eliminate a good bit of binding in the bj's.Bio Drop spindles are a good method as well, hit up Max for these.  Many also make a spindle spacer that goes betwen the two halves of the spindle/lower balljoint.

I raised my upper a arm mount up 2 inches and made a 2 inch spacer to space the spindle up were it bolts to the lower ball joint. Here are what pics I have.

^^ Its set up to lay full frame so if you just wanted to lay the front motor crossmember you can just run the spacers
