I hope you took good pics of the install it's the real dirty action I really wanted to see. Are you happy with it? Like I told you via PM I think I will do my 1" BL first then do the coil springs/spacers. I like the stance though seems like it fixed the saggy ass issue.

You really are after me heart, aren't you?!!? Yes I took pics of the install, just for you. Just gotta try and organize them in a thread that'll make sense to those that going to read it. Very easy, though. Yes I like it, and it did fix my draggin ass issue. But now I need shocks. The driver's side is dead. But I await funds. Then new coils, and the ball joint spacers up front.......

Real dirty pics you asked for, and so you have received.....

The SDORI 2" coil spacers



My BEAST jacked up,supported on stands,both tires removed,axle supported by floor jack


I first unbolted the both lower shocks,slid them off the lower mounts,didn't need to remove them


Then I unbolted the sway bar on both sides


I then lowered the axle.

I then placed a 2x4 between the inner fender and the lower shock mount,to push the axle downward



I then put the coil collapsers in place on the coils,cranked them down,and removed the coils



I cleaned all the dirt off the isolators/bushings, put the bottom 1 back in place


I then put the spacer on top of the coil,put the isolator on top of the spacer, and fanagled into place


I then uncranked the collapsers,removed the 2x4,and here is the spacer in place.


I repeated the same on the other side. When both sides where done, I jacked the axle back up,reconnected the shocks, the sway bar, put the tires back on, jacked the truck back up, removed the stands, and set the BEAST back on the ground.
The job took a whole 2 1/2 hrs.

Happy now, chicky?!!? Lol

You've been a bad boy go to my room!

As for the 4runner I won't be getting her dirty until I get the issues ironed out. *crosses fingers* hoping it's the TPS. If I can get that fixed I am moving on to finishing my intake.
