3rd gen 4runner lift?

ok so i have a 2000 4runner sr5 and i have heard that if you are to get a 2" lift in ter rear and a 3" in the front that it is supposed to level your 4runner, is this true, and what would it be like if i just did 3" all around, i mean would it look weird or something??

i was also wondering what your oppinion on the 3" ome lift is and what shocks to use with it, and what you think it should cost to have intalled, i am new to this and and do not want to get screwed on the cost, and can i just take it to any where that dose suspension?

I moved this to newbie section and renamed your thread title...your lucky It wasn't deleted instead.

"lift" can mean anything, please be a little more specific next time.

ok so i have a 2000 4runner sr5 and i have heard that if you are to get a 2" lift in the rear and a 3" in the front that it is supposed to level your 4runner, is this true, (no) and what would it be like if i just did 3" all around, i mean would it look weird or something?? (no)

i was also wondering what your oppinion on the 3" ome lift is and what shocks to use with it, ( http://www.wheelersoffroad.com/ome4runner.htm read the FAQ at http://www.sonoransteel.com/store_co..._liftkits.html Then consider "System 7.2" ) and what you think it should cost to have intalled, (it can vary and depends on where you go, can be $150 to $300+, you'll also need an alignment) i am new to this and and do not want to get screwed on the cost, and can i just take it to any where that dose suspension? (yes)
I would recommend that you spend a few days or weeks searching the threads HERE. There are thousands of posts about OME, Tundra springs, Bilsteins, Tokico, Sonoran Steel, etc. Theres also a few with tips on installing a lift yourself providing you have basic mechanical skills and the proper tools.
This section can be helpful too... https://www.yotatech.com/forums/f79/

Here's the specs on the OME springs.

A lot of folks wanting as much lift as possible are using the 882 front springs, which are not on the chart. On my Tacoma I got right at 3" of lift on the front. I also used the OME shocks.

Thanks,
Gerone
