Anyone running 1.5" Daystar lift?

ok, so im thinking about running this lift and was just wondering if anyone has this setup? How do you like it? Do you have a pic of your 4runner with the lift. Any problems? etc......

I was originally going to use PP 1" springs but they are disscontinued and are very hard to find. So, basically im sick of waiting to find a set and just want to raise my ride height about 1"-1.5" thats all ,in not looking to go the OME route. Thats just overkill for me since I dont go offroading. Thanks for your input!

Most people that have had spacer lifts would tell you to go the spring lift route, myself included. Spacers will sag your stock coils and you'll end up with way less lift than you started with. Initially, I did the 2.5" Daystar kit and ended up with ~1.25" of lift after less than a year. I replaced it with OME 882's in front and LC coils in the rear, which will give you 3" in front and 3.75" in the rear.

If you're not looking to go that high, OME makes some other lift coils that will give you 2" or so. Also, Steve at Sonoran Steel can hook you up with a complete lift (the 7.1 kit I believe) that will also be around 2". There are better options out there than spacers. Lift it right the first time with coils and you'll save money in the long run.
