Do i have a susp lift?
Hi all!!
I have a 96 runner. i bought it recently from the east coast. It came with a 2" BL, but not sure about suspension lift. I have examined it, but there is a lot of rust on my springs. there are no coil spacers, i have OME shocks and the stock rear cones. runnin 33's and 15' rims. I read on one of my searches about measuring from the well lip to the rim. not sure if this will work, but i dont know stock measurement anyway. the tires barely rub the plastick liner on the firewall side. any help would be gretly appreciated!!!
here are some pix, sorry bout the poor quality (cam phone quickies)

If you want to know for sure if it has suspension lift look at the upper a-arm. If it is level or above the upper strut bracket, there is no lift, if the arm is lower than the upper strut bracket, you have lift.
That is the easiest place to tell.

you have a 2-ish inch suspension lift for sure with as much fender clearance as you have with 33's.
my guess would be OME 891's in the rear and OME 881's (not 882's - it would be higher w/o a winch) up front.
it rides stiff as hell, doesn't it?

no, i think that is jacksonpt's old rig... wow, if so, it's a LONG way from home...
that would also explain the RUST (upstate NY)

Weird, I didnt know he sold his rig. Looks like he took some stuff off before he sold it...
There's a lot done to that truck though Trixter...pretty sweet.
Only thing is that it has 3.90 gears I believe?
Check it out, a whole website dedicated to your truck already Trixter:

it has 3.90's and it's had (and may still have) quite a few issues. that's why he traded it in. he was having issues with it all the time for a while it seems like. hopefully the dealer took care of them before selling it to you.
