Question need estimate for 6" lift kit on '95 runner

i posted a little while ago about my truck going up in flames, and i am currently dealing with my insurance company about a "fair value" and i was asking if someone could direct me towards some prices for a 6" lift kit for a 1995 4runner. Even just companies would be extremely helpful. I have everything else priced out except how much it would cost to re-lift a 4runner like my old one. All help would be greatly appreciated!

Never herd of a 6" kit. You should (if its not too late) look at prices for 4" lift kits.
www.superlift.com and www.explorerprocomp.com both makes kits that run between $2,100-$2,5000
If i remember correctly, www.trailmastersuspension.com has one for around $2,000

The 4" kits along with a few other mods might give you 6" of lift but not in a complete kit.

i thought fabtech might make a 6" lift, is that not true? Also, if i can't just get a bolt on kit, does anyone know how much the process would be to get it to the 6" mark? I have to tell the adjuster all this so they can take it into consideration before they screw me

Fabtech does not make a second gen kit (4x4). Years ago I remember people would take a 4" pro comp or trailmaster and use it with rancho upper a-arms and torsion bars and call it a 6". OR its a 4" suspension with a 2" body lift. If you are in the San Jose area, I own a shop called Rock Star Engineering and we are in the off road/aftermarket buisness. We could definately put a quote together for you to get you back in buisness. by the way, sorry for your loss. Mike

All the 6" kits are for post 96 tacos/4runners. Pre 96 have the 4".

I have seen the 4" kits for under $500 for the 1st and 2nd gens.

The 6" kits that wouldnt fit on your truck are ~$1500

Actually, yes i am in San Jose. That would definitely help out to have something on paper to give to the insurance company. How much would it cost to get a quote like that done? I definitely have enough photos of my truck to show you so you could get an idea on how much it would take to have it done again.
