My 94 4runner w/ FJ80 Coils & 4Crawler BJ Spacers

Today Robert aka "RMA" and I installed FJ80 coils & 4crawler BJ spacers on my 94 4runner. Total time took about 3 1/2 hours. Thank you very much Robert for all the help man! I really appreciate it! Couldn't have done it without yah!

Looks sick! What size BJ spacers did you use? What was your total height gain?

Welcome to YT, by the way.

He said he got the BJ spacers from 4Crawler so I'd assume they are 1.5". Unless he got a custom size set I guess..

It looks good anyway!

Yup I used regular 1.5 4crawler spacers. Not sure how much it lifted (forgot to measure) but I would say 2-3 inches (t-bar wasn't cranked either).

Thanks guys!

I have a 94 4runner 4x4 and im looking at doing the lift that you have on mine, but i have a few questions. The fj80 coils for the rear does anything have to be changed to install and are they stock coils? Are there any rubbing issues when running a 33x12.50 15?

So I'm confused, did you install fj80 coils in the front of the veichle, or is the front only with 1.5" BJ spacers? So just so I understand so I can plan my ifs lift you have only 1.5" BJ spacers with stock 4Runner coils and struts up front. And Rear is FJ80 coils with stock length 4Runner struts? Are you running the front FJ80 coils in back or are you running the rear FJ80 coils in back? Did you get the short sided coils or long sided coils? Or one of each?

The BJ spacers don't give you a lift do they?

Its not rocket science...

The front is 1.5" ball joint spacers. The rear is STOCK rear fj80 coils. 2nd gens dont have coils up front. You cannot run stock shocks with BJ spacers and FJ80 coils... So you'll need to upgrade them. You could also do brake lines up front and will probably need them in the back. You'll also need to adjust the panhard and LSPV.
