Ball Joint Lift for 2nd gen 4-runner

Has anyone ever heard of a 1" ball joint lift? Someone had said something to me about it and I was just wondering if anyone had any info about these and where to obtain the bigger ball joints. If anyone knows anything about this please let me know!!!

You mean these?




I get them next week. I got them for $80 from a guy down in Baja Mexico he runs them on his pickup. I need to maybe do a little deburring with my dremel but they will be ready to install with new grade 8 hardware.
All you have to do is knock the studs out of your upper ball joints then put the spacer in and use the longer hardware. You will have to loosen your torsions a bit for the right caster angles.

Here's Alan's email bajamilero@jeepeando.com
I got them from him for $80 plus $10 shipping.
I am not sure how many he plans on selling of these. Also ellipster is also selling these soon on 4x4wire.com.
