Man, just wanted to give you props on your truck too!! It looks really nice. I think I'm going to copy it haha.. naw jk, but I'm at the stage right now, where I'm trying to see which route I go on my stock '89 Runner and I'd like it to look like yours. You said you also had a BL? I was thinking of just doing BJ spacers, & rear add a leafs.

I do have a BL, it's a 1" lift. Very easy to do, because you don't have to change anything ie. trans linkage(manual), brake lines.... It also gave me more to run 32x11.50 MT's.

Sweet. I hadn't even thought of that. Everything I've read about 2"+ BLs makes me cringe and I don't want to spend that much for a SL. How did you make your "homemade" BL? Please share

I used some 1" thick Aluminum and made disc or donuts using a 1-5/8" hole saw and longer bolts. It only took me a hour and a half by myself to lift the truck.

I know!! Nice man. Well I might have to buy mine, but I've seen them for cheap. There was a 2" body lift from Perf. accessories for $60. I will have to search for a 1".. or maybe do the BJ spacers & add a leafs 1st, then see how it looks.. Treknwil, what would you recommend? You did the BL 1st didn't you? It's cheaper. I know that!
