suspension lift for 2000 4Runner

Just wondering how big I can go with my 4Runner? I'm guessing just 2.5inch's...without replacing CV joints etc...?

Welcome to YT... let me be the first to tell you to search. There are tons of threads about which lift will do what and what its limitations are. Search and and be prepared to read for a while. This topic has been covered greatly on this forum.

Hey Craig, good to hear from you. Bummer about the CV joints.


Don't you also have the 1" diff drop spacers as well? If no, this may help to alleviate the angle of the half-shafts.......

I can't do that...I'm wanting to go to some 315's when these 285's wear down a little more...I'll need all the space I can get.
