Okay i got a 4" trailmaster lift up front, and LC coils off a 93 landcruiser for the rear. Im getting ready to put them on but need to know some stuff first.

I know i need to extend the LSPV, Panhard bracket, and shocks, and brake lines.

My question is where would be the best place to get the brake lines?
Also would the stock rear shocks work up front with the 4" lift?
Where is the best place to get the Panhard bracket?

Can i run the stock rims/tires for a while. Arn't you supposed to have less than 3.75" backspacing, or is that just for 33's?

Thanks

 

 

You will need to get 3.75 BS wheels or your (I think) spindle extensions will dig into the tire (not sure what they are called). Also I'm not sure on IFS toys but I know you can use rear stock toyota 4x4 from 80-95 rubber brake lines to extend them as they are male on one end and female on the other end. Should work on IFS as well. I get mine at NAPA they make two flavors, one that's around 12" long and one that is about 20" long. I think they cost me around $42 to extend three brakelines on my last crawler. As far as the panhard, not sure because I've never had a 2nd gen runner. I would think you could order one that is designed for the lifts they make for the back of those trucks but I don't see a good welding shop having a hard time fabbing one up either.

 

Okay, thanks a bunch!

Quick question. On that extension, where the tire will rub, is that only with the 33's? COuld i run my stock rims with 31's until i can get new rims/tires?

 

From what I saw with my lift, the tire will rub on the upper control arm so the factory wheels won't work. You'll have to space the wheels out or get new rims before you mount the lift.

 

Okay, thanks! I just wanted to make sure i could not run my stock rims with 31's first!

Thanks

 

The rim will hit the UCA with stock 4.75" backspacing regardless of tire size. I found that out the hard way when the shop that sold me the lift failed to mention my rims would not work.

1" wheel spacers would also work and cost less.

Yea i thought about the wheel spacers, but i think i just want to get some of those black crawler type rims.

I think they look cool, plus if i ever bend one , then i just pay another $50 for a new rim

 

New rims are cool. That's what I ended up doing when I installed the TM lift on my old '89 4runner.
