Rear tire or front?

What kind of rear suspension setup do you have? Full leafs? Blocks?

well I'm not gunna nag on you about the blocks... I'll let everyone else do that...

but you have removed the swaybar?

you may want to try putting it back in, just to see if that solves the problem

could also be maybe the springs are just weak from age and are moving far to easy... or have been weakened because of the blocks, but I'm not getting into that, remember

Its time to ditch the tired stock springs and gargantuan blocks.... If you can, do 63" chevy springs in the back. Then do a mild lift shackle and/or a 1" block to make it all level..

I kinda have that problem, but its my front tire that comes off the ground

anxious... Google it, you got it right, lol

if you've got the spare time and nothing better to do, I'd definately give it a shot

let us know how it works out man!

i don't really have a problem if im driving correctly. If i try to lock the lockright up around turns (it only happens on left hand turns from a stop) then the driver side front tire will pop off the ground.

you should see everyone who rides with me, the 4runner has some body roll, and people love the oh $@!# handle.

I think adding the swaybar is gonna make it worse, but it's worth a shot.

Obviously, you are running out of droop travel, sounds to me like something is bound up or your shackle angle is seriously whack.

Seriously, ditch the blocks and buy some "real" springs. You've got WAY more lift than you need for 35's
