First let me start off by saying hello, I'm new here been lurking around checking out pics and threads, I have a 1995 4runner, manual 5spd, 4wd, completely stock but hoping to change that soon.

I've been looking at lifts all over and found that the toy-tech lifts seem to be what I need, but I don't know which one I should get. My truck is more of a daily driver, I go mudding every now and then but that's it. Also I'm not very knowledgeable about tech talk so keep it simple for me :] thanks

Ok so there is a full OME suspension kit( http://www.toyteclifts.com/index.php...mart&Itemid=72 )

2" lift kit with rear coils( http://www.toyteclifts.com/index.php...mart&Itemid=72 )

And 2" lift kit with rear spacers( http://www.toyteclifts.com/index.php...mart&Itemid=72 )

I don't really understand the difference between the latter 2, would I still have to buy extended shocks if I get one of the 2? And the OME lift has the option of torsion bars, not sure if that's upgraded ones or what.

Any help would be appreciated
Thanks,
Austin

fixed your thread title, Yotatech is the forum, Toy Tech is the lift company.
Good luck

Both need longer shocks.

You want new rear coils.

The OME is pretty expensive. You can piece together a lift and get the same results.

I spent 290 ish bucks and this is what i got:

4 brand new shocks
LC coils
SDORI BJ spacers
extended brake lines
panhard bracket & lspv.

Thanks for the info guys!

How much lift did you get out of that setup?

I haven't installed it yet. but I'll be doing a review on it. I'll keep you posted.

I got the heavy duty OME rear springs, their torsion bars, and their shocks all the way around(including the steering stabilizer). I decided against the ball joint spacers because I fealt wierd about cutting the upper control arm. I'm really happy with how my truck rides. I even put right at 1200 lbs of bagged soil in it recently and it handled great with very little sag. But I did spend something like $600 on that stuff. It might have been a little more even.

Ok those links helped a lot and I'm pretty sure what I'm going to get but there are all these other things that are optional like panhard brackets, LPSV, diff drop kit, & sway bar drop kits; I've read what they do and kinda understand but I was wondering like are they necessary? B/C I don't want to be driving down the road and one of my new suspension parts mess up something else

^^Hahaha, I had a ball joint break off once, but that was because of broken bolts But other than that wild moment, mine has been great

Got any pics of your truck?

So you have the bj spacers and ome torsion bars? does that make it so you don't have to cut the control arms?

MaK92-4RnR

If you get ball joint spacers, regardless you have to cut the control arms. its nothing major and doesn't jeopardize the strength of the control arms.
