Looking good, but, you're probably not going to get 4" of front lift from adding a 3" + 1" ... probably more like 3" but, thats not a big deal really. Nice though.

Kerby, I noticed you don't have a skid plate installed...I hope you're not wheelin' that rig without some protection.

looks really nice but imo you should ditch some of the chrome for black like the chrome on the rims, grille, and tail lights. otherwise an amazing lookin runner nice work

Really? Thats a trip. Didn't think the lower ball joints would allow that much? Did you consider the larger tires adding lift?

Hows the ride with the PP and spacers?

yea like before i did the lift and put the tires on i measured everything and its now 5.5 inches higher so 4 inches of lift and the 1.5 that the tires add since they r 33's and as far as the ride its a lil bumpier than before but not as stiff for some reason like i put the 33's on before i ever did the lift and like everything was real stiff but also doing the manual hub swap might have helped out to dont know for shure since i did it all at the same time ya know

Dude.. your 4Runner looks sick! The headlights, the hood, front and rear bumper, everything looks good, you definitely did a good job in fixing it up!
