The kit will come with everything you will need. But when you order, make sure you let them know it's an auto and everything, and they'll make sure you get everything.

The instructions on his website are extremely thorough. They cover almost any problem you would run into.

HUH? If you can't find your body mount bolts you might not want to take on this project

You need:

-All the lift blocks and hardware
-Rad drop brackets
-Steering shaft extension (mine required a new plate for the firewall that located the steering colum hole lower)
-auto linkage extension
-Front bumper brackets

Just becasue you have a smitty bilt it doesnt change the fact it mounts to the frame. If you leave it alone it will be 3" lower on the body they it should be..... That will look goofy.

Yes you have to lift the carpet corners/sides to get to all the mounts. But its easily accessable. These trucks are pretty simple to work on.

I think I'll be ordering one of these kits and a set off lifted rear springs for my 1995 4runner I picked up Saturday. Im guessing I should be able to install a set of 33" tires on it without having to worry about body contact
