Just wondering if you installed this lift. I need to find a place to install that on mine.
Clean looking Runner man! Congrats on the lift. Does the Toytec 3 use OME srpings out the rear??
Looks clean man, just like my 4Runner. You should get some clear corners & clear signals lens also. Do the rear mud-flap removal mod, that'll make your 4Runner appear as if it sits even higher. Some LED tails would look good too...
I was going to ask how has the larger tires affected your power, but then I see that you have a SC installed, so nevermind
In my opinion it's in way to good of condition to off-road it.. but that's just me.

I know exactly what you mean about the fuel kit. I will get it on there one way or the other. When we were putting the supercharger on, nothing was easy. Every bolt was seized it seemed like. We had to use a head bolt from a '95 civic because the head bolt that came with the kit had such fine grooves that it became worn quickly when we tried to install it. On a seven year old vehicle there was a lot of rust and crap in the pre-existing hole that we had to clean out. I'm just nervous about taking everything off again, thats all.
And by the way, Sweet runner...

Yeah, but you do have to remove the dynamic tensioner bracket, which is the part I'm worried about putting back because i'm using an aftermarket headbolt. For some reason TRD does not sell individual pieces of the kits, such as replacement bolts so I need to be careful. I don't know anything about computerized tuning either!!

Is that the the toytec lift with the 3" coils up front or the coil spacers?? I really want to lift mine soon im just having trouble deciding whether i want to go with the SS 7.1 or a Toytec. By the way your 4runner looks great.... I often times wish mine was black too

Yes this has the front and rear OME coils. It also uses 2 top plate spacers in the front to get the full 3" lift. Money was a concern when I was looking for a lift kit, and like I said before the toytec lift is the best kit for the price in my opinion. If you have the money to spend on the 7.1, you might want to go that route, I have heard nothing but good things about that on this forum. Just remember, if you buy the Toytec lift be sure to get the front diff drop kit too so you can relieve stress on the cv's. Black is nice when its clean, but it does show every flaw. I'm a big fan of the silver 4Runners like yours, they look great when lifted.
