HELP! pro comp lift on my 1991 runner

Im working on building my first 4runner. i bought a pro comp 4" ifs lift from a friend but i still need some parts for it- both rear a-arm drop brackets and the rear crossmember. Anyone know where i can get these? ive worn myself out looking online but i cant find the individual parts... and also i need advice for lifting the rear ( the kit was for a tacoma so it had the blocks instead of coils) Any help????!!!!

well first off....if you bought a TACOMA lift kit...then it will NOT work for your 2nd gen 4runner...TOTALLY different front (and rear) suspension setup(s)....

well i thought about that and i did my research so i wouldnt shoot myself in the foot... all the part numbers are the same for 1986-1995 tacoma & 4runners for the IFS in the front. the installation instructions also cover 2nd gen runners it just says you need a different rear kit...

To clarify, the Tacoma pickups started with the 1995.5 model year, before that it was just called a 4WD pickup (or Hilux in some parts of the world).

Have you contacted the person you bought the kit from? Sounds like they left out a few critical parts.
