Downey, $125.00 bolt on. For a 2nd Gen.

3rd Gens I made them, $75.00 weld on. I have a few left.

Yup, for yours I would agree that it's necessary since your driveshaft was hitting when you were off roading. But for a 1.5 inch lift over stock, I don't think it's neccessary. That's why downey doesn't include a drop bracket for the 1.5 inch coils, it only comes with the 3inch lift.

The lift height Vs lateral movement is not linear, so as you lift the truck, the axle moves laterally much more.
So what are you guys up there going to be doing in a month? Guess who's comin to town......

How about some Holister Thrills !!!

Sounds good to me. You can try out your crawler on the mini rubicon.

Hey Steve,

Sounds good! Right now, the upper ranch looks like it will be open at that time.

hey all, a newbie question here, about the PANHARD bracket, i got a 99 4 runner with 31" tires, and at some point, going to lift it 2" now, im all about doing things RIGHT, from what i can tell, doing the panhard bracket would be a good idea, but, should i take it to the dealer for the welding ? would a local shop know what to do ? if i took the write-up with me ? i have no means to do the welding myself, but want it done right the first time.
THANKX for any ideas, help or suggetions.
Ric

If you get a panhard drop from Steve, which I believe is the only one you can get for a 3rd Gen, it is bolt on (I'm pretty sure).
