Hi, I am wondering if anyone knows of a good shop to install my 1" body lift on my 96 4Runner. I've read a lot about the install and understand it's doable, but with a wife, two kids and a commute, I don't have time for me to do it (consists of me doing the body lift, getting stuck on something, researching and two weeks later, pulling it out with only a few bent or broken parts!)


I'm actually in Galt, CA.










Looking for a place who will get it done right the first time. If anyone has ample experience with these and wants to make a little, that's great too. Thanks for checking this out and it's back to the grind tomorrow!

 

A 1" is brainless. You don't even have to lengthen anything even with an auto trans. Pretty sure I did my 1.5" BL in 1 hour. An electric/air impact would speed things up. As would a floor jack to raise the body. So.... any shop should complete this easily.

 

Yeah, 1" BL is easy. Just do one side at a time.

I took about 3 hours to do mine, but about 2 hours of that was fighting with a single frozen bushing that was fused to the bolt (LF one behind the grille/bumper). It wouldn't budge no matter what I tried, and there wasn't much access to it. Eventually I just took off the front bumper for access and chopped the head off it.
