3in Body Lift Will i have problems
 

i want to install a 3in body lift to my 3rd gen 99 4runner. Will i have to lengthen anything such as gas hoses or other wire's/hoses. Or will it be a painless install

Depending what kit you get the instructions will tell you most everything you need to modify.

My gas filler neck is OKAY, but it leaks a few drops when I fill up. No big deal.

My stock intake tube no longer fit right, I had to flip the elbow to get things to line up. 18 year old rubber isnt that flexible anymore ;)


Some trucks might have problems and some might not, it really varies. None of the small problems I encountered set me back more then a few hours.


Here are a few tips though:

Spray all of your body bolts with your favorite penetrent lube ( PB blaster, liquid wrench etc.) for at least a week before you attempt. I hit mine 3 times and they came off very easily.

Make sure your truck can be down for a few days due to unexpected problems or broken parts. Another mode of transportation is great ;)

A friend or two makes the whole thing alot easier/funner.

Make sure you have a good floor jack and one or two bottle jacks, along with various lenghts of 2x4's and 4x4's.

check out 4crawler.com he seems to sell the best BL's and has adapter and extensions for the miscelanus stuff that needs to be lengthend.
