I was looking at the supreme suspensions and was wondering if anybody has or does use there lifts ? and what you can tell me about them ? Thanks

 

a link would probably help

 

I'm guessing is what you're talking about?

 

there site is supremesuspensions.com

 

Its just a ball joint spacer and a add a leaf. Pretty basic. Great way to get about a 2" lift.

Most of the cost of that kit is the shocks.

 

The kit I linked would be the best one. It looks like it also comes with a diff drop. And all the kits on their website have rear blocks. I personally would prefer add a leaf over lift blocks.

 

yeah some come with blocks but I noticed if you click on the lift and scroll down some of them come with the add a leafs one of the ones I looked at didn't say/show the add-a-leafs till I clicked on it . they say like 3" front and 2.5" in rear . would this lift with the ball joint spacers work ok ? my truck will be used mostly for trails some a little ruff and maybe a little mud would this work good ? or would I just be looking at major problems ? my son is also thinking of using there a lift for his 95 4runner too.

 

It's a great budget lift for the ifs set up. Most people like to add the spacers and relieve the torsion bar so it's back at stock height. This will give you added travel without added lift. It can be used to lift as well though. It will put excess wear on your cvs however if you do not have manual hubs. keep in mind that in order to install the ball joint spacers, you will need to cut a portion out of the upper control arm. All in all, it's a great option for a cheap lift. Would like to hear how it works for you if you decide to go with it!

 

My 2 cents:
"Stay away from the blocks"
Add a leafs are a better option however mine have made my springs into "W's"!
New Leafs aren't cheap but the best way to go!

 

now the spacers you are talking about are the ball joint spacers in the kit ? sorry im new to the IFS lifting . I have the manual hubs on my 92 pickup but my sons 98 4runner I believe doesn't . I am not sure if I like the sound of cutting into the control arms , wont that weaken them ? thanks for you help and info.

 

I agree with you on the blocks I would go with the add a leafs , I know some people that have had good luck with the not on Toyotas but chevys etc. but thanks for you 2 cents always good to get any help/info from others

 

This should help with some of your questions. I have had BJ spacers for a couple years now, with very few issues. I had to replace control arm bushings and got torn cv boots, but this was after hard off-roading.

hey thanks , im not sure yet what I will do but sounds like this might be a little more then what I can do right now plus the wife wants to leave it like it is {at least for now} its kind of her rig but sure I might get her to change mind {hehe} its more so going to be a trail rig and my 87 yota always went everywhere with 235's this one I just got and it came with 31 km2's so should even go better. glad to hear from another VT'er !
