So I bought this 4runner like this, I wanted to get some thoughts about what was wrong with the setup as it is, if anything, and maybe some improvements I could think about.

 

I don't know these too well, but it appears at least the right rear bump stop is busted. It should he "hanging" from the top like the other side. Otherwise, it appear the panhard drop bracket and the LSPV extension bracket are there which is often missed.

 

Yeah, that's definitely broke.....trying to figure out a cheap and easy solution. Should the panhard bar bea little more level?

 

that I can't say for sure, but to me it appears to already have the drop bracket, but again without me actually searching to see what the stock setup is, I can't say for sure. IIRC, It should be angled as such that both tires are under the fender wells equally (centered) under the truck.

 

ok, that makes sense. And from what I can tell they are centered.

 

I can tell you exactly what you need. For starters you need a longer panhard drop bracket. (4Crawler makes them in various lengths) also you need either longer upper links or 4 link exstension brackets. Im trying to find where I can get these right now myself.

 

I took a closer look at your pictures and noticed you already have the upper link drop brackets. So all you need is a longer panhard drop bracket. (yes...you want it level from my understanding). give or take an inch. I need some of those so if you decide to do anything to it like leaf springs let me know

 

I have the same set-up on my 95. You have some kind of spacer on top of the coils springs, probably 1.5-2''. The left rear side is sitting kind of crooked, i would definately lower the spring and re-seat it in the bucket to make sure the spacer isn't F.U.B.A.R.'d or cracked. With the taller lift than the original kit was designed for, just as xxxtreme22r said, u do need a longer panhard drop bracket to off-set the axle angle, it will be whatever size spacers are on there, the lift is set-up for 4 inches only, looks like your pushing 6. www.4crawler.com has what you need including a good write-up for what measurement needed.

 

 

That is the 4" lift. Pro-Comp and Superlift have the same kit except for some difference in some other parts. I have the Superlift on my 94 and the panhard bracket looks exactly the same as his. https://www.yotatech.com/forums/f116...offset-213089/

right and if you look at this one the panhard is bolted into the hanger, no extension.

 

And i bet his rear passenger wheel sticks out about 1" further than the drivers side...

Make your panhard bar level with the ground, fix bumpstops, and be good to go.
Otherwise, 4 link it, and be better off in the end.

 

Looks like 4 link will be the way to go...simple is best.
