Finished her up this weekend. Put the ole classic Toytec 3" OME lift on with the 285/75/16 Firestone Destination M/T's. Need to tint those front 2 windows sometime this week.

After:

 

At first, I just looked at the first picture... I was like, wtf, thats a 3'' lift??? Then I scrolled down... lol...

Looks much better! Meats look good too!

 

Looks really good! How are you liking the ride?

 

Thanks John, the lift is great, no rubbing at all. The best part of it all was the comments from my friends after they saw it. Everybody's used to standard 265 street queens, but very few people run 285's and its just fun to sit at an intersection and watch folks passing by take a 2nd glance over. I think the 3rd gen 4runner with a 3 inch lift is the toughest looking rig out there.

 

Thanks Matt, the ride is better than my rancho 5000 shocks....I was wanting to get a somewhat plush city driving ride and the OME comfort shocks delivered. They do need some weight in the back to balance out the 890 coil in bumps but I'm very happy with it so far. Folks looking for a super plush ride might want to think about the LC's. I should be able to get her on some trails come May/June so I'll update then on how that goes.

 

Damn man that thing looks sweet!! I just got my OME shocks in last week, now im just waiting to get my coils and maxxis bigshots. After seeing yours, im really looking forward to lifting mine

 

that looks REALLY good, just wondering did you do the panhard drop bracket or anything? did your rear axle shift over? did you replace anything other than the coils?

 

looks awesome man!

 

thanks fellas, yes I had to install the panhard bracket to get everything to seat right, no axle shift and she drives true, i have the OME comfort shocks all around, besides that nothing else was needed except for the diff drop, toytec makes it easy with their kit.

 

The thick sidewalls rock on the Destinations. I've run mine at 5psi (five) with no problem, many times though sucks gas with psi that low.

 

looks much better
