no more sagging

Well my 88 4runner had a bad case of the sags. Last weekend my brother (a samurai guru) helped me lift it up. Here's a pic with the maypop tires, so little tread they may pop my brother tells me. I just got a perfect set of sr5 rims to put on it, so now I've got to get some new 31's.

and here's a pic of my 86, which sits level.

Looking good. What did you use to get your back lifted to stock level? I had some Moog Suspension springs ordered but am now leaning towards the air springs.

Hey 4RunnerX3,
Your truck looks great! I just finished installing Downey's 3" lift yesterday evening. The ride is much better. What suspension setup did you use?

Again truck looks great w/ new lift!

I used a 2 1/2" block. I know it is not the best way. The stock springs don't have much arch left in them. The 86 has a spring added in the pack by the previous owner. I don't know what it is or came off of, but its not of the bottom and it rides great. As long as it took me to find the 86, I wont sell it. I bought it from the second owner who had it shipped from California. He bought because he used to have one, got it and didn't drive it.
