Hy, im new to this site, and I just got my hands on a 98 4runner, and am interested in putting the OME lift on it. My main question is what exactly is needed to put the lift on other than the shocks and coils? Any insight is greatly appreciated.

 

youre gonna get flamed to search, but basically all u need are the coils. if you want to be safe/do it right, theres other things like the panhard drop/bar, ex brake bracket/lines, diff drop etc... as for tools, a jack, stands and basic crap should get you going pretty good imo. oh, and a spring compressor

 

haha, the parts to do it right, is what gets ya.

if you have the coin, you may think about doing the sonoran steel lift (www.sonoransteel.com). comes with all the additional do-dads that you might need. it's good for people like me who are tired of spending time searching for parts, and piecing together their own kits(speaking about previous projects, since i just started on my runner)

 

Hear comes the match...search.

 

Shocks
Coils
Alignment
1" differential drop (not required, but cheap insurance)
panhard bar (not required, but will even out the rear axle position)

If your going to do serious wheeling, you should probably invest in some of the other goodies like extended brake lines and new bump stops.

I would also put some 10mm spacers up front while re-assemblying the struts to even out the lift.
