it will be a lot of work but WELL worth it. makes the suspension super soft, smooth, and it flexes like no other. put a hi lift on the middle of my rock sliders and jacked her up 8 inches before the wheels left the ground. it was pretty crazy. the p.o. had some pictures on his facebook of it flexing. i can try to find them.

but if you are on the fence about the ruf just do it, will not disappoint

fronts are aftermarket and i believe rears are just the stock ones for '95

yota axles are stronger than you would think
