I have a 4 inch lift currently on my 4runner. I have some chevy springs I and going to swap in. I have read where the Chevy springs give you roughly 3 inches. Is this correct? To make the vehicle sit level should I put a 1 inch block in the back, or go with a 2 inch?

Assuming your talking about an IFS lift?

Willie B

Yes, it is an IFS lift. I am sick of the horrible sagged rough riding squatting stock springs!

I want the vehicle to sit level or even a slight rake to it with the chevy springs

Just do them and see what happens. Go longer shackles if you need it. Not blocks.

you will need to run a block or a large shackle and/or a big drop mount for the shackles.

I am running 63" chevys, made my own pack, a 7" shackle and a 2" block..

Up front its a 4" TG sas kit. So im probably sittting at 5" over stock or so..

You would use the pics with the 4d's

Those pics are going to be used from now on, the 35's look GHEY....

Wait till we throw those 39.5's on my buddys truck getting it ready for MCR and take his 42's off of it.. Guess where the 42's are gonna be????

Maybe, i wish upon the 42" irok gods to let me run them.. hahaha.

Great looking 4runner!

Thanks for the input. I guess I will throw a 2 inch in there, and see what it looks like first.

before you go out and spend $50 on blocks, throw the chevys under it and see how much taller it needs to be. Then go from there.

Shoulda gone 37's in the first place

The shackles that are recommended to be used are 9'' already that would be a long ass shackle lol

Most people that run the Chevy's use a rear lift block. Here's a good FAQ on the Chevy swap from Pirate, lot's of info...
