I am about to do this install with the OME kit. I ordered the 891s. How much lift did you gain? And also did you put any spacers in the front to level out left to right?? Looks great by the way.

Sweet Setup! How do you find the ride difference now with some drive time? I takeit that is the harder setup as well?

I love it... It's a complete 180 from the stock setup. I just read another thread on here the other day that said in 2000 the 4Runner's were dropped by ~2 inches due to some heat the SUV world was taking on rollovers. My 2000 was definitely lower stock than my 99 4WD. Anyways, yes, the OME upgrade changed how the truck drives through and through! It has excellent road manners, doesn't bottom out on pot holes or speed bumps and is a joy to drive at speed down fire roads and jeep trails. I also like that it retained a look very close to stock, I want my 4Runner as close to stock as possible, I just like doing a few mods that enhance its performance. I have more pics.. I'll post them in a bit.
