So How do I get 33's on my 4Runner?
Which is the best IFS lift?
Why doesn't anyone make a IFS lift taller than 6"?

I kid, I kid ... I'm just saying Hello!

I just acquired a 1994 4 Runner (my girlfriend made me buy her's, it was sittin in her back yard. How do women do that?) and am in the process of putting it back on the road, it is stock with 31's. I looked at a couple of Forums and this one seemed the best, so here I am. Unfortuantely I like tools (the mechanical kind, no funny jabs required) and I'm stupid so I won't be able to leave the thing alone, so I am sure real questions will come soon enough. Anyway ... Hi.

 

welcome. congrats on getting a Runner. i think you'll like it...

to fit 33s, you'll need:
-IFS bracket kit (4")
-BJ spacers/rear coils (and possibly a 1" or 2" body lift)
-3" body lift
-fender cutting/clearanced inner fenders

as for my lift, it should be for sale within a month or so... if you're really interested, shoot me a PM.

Man, did you come to the right place , but seriously...you've found the right place and since I too have a '94, I hope that I'll be of some help to you, although I'm a "newbie" to the site as well and have found it, it's members and of particular usefulness, it's "search" feature, to be indispensible.

Welcome and happy 'runnin.

 

I run 33x10.5 on my 95--only BJ spacers and Downey HD springs. I have Procomp shocks for a 4 inch lifted truck. I don't rub at all even under full compression.
To run 33x12.5 you will need to do more.

 

Actually the first three questions were a joke but thanks for all the input, it's all helpfull.

No need for a 4" or taller lift unless you want to go that way.

 

Welcome, I to have a 94 but its a pickup so I guess we can talk about front suspension! I have just recently joined the board as well, its great on here and there is more information than I can soak in even though I sit on the computer all day at work!

 

Welcome to the boards....here is what I have and I sell.........

I hope this is a joke. You don't need that much lift for 33's. Even 33/12.5's. 4" IFS + 1.5" BJ's/coils + 3" BL = 8.5" of total lift. You could do 37's or more with that.

 

4 different options to fit 33s... not altogether...

 

6" lift is for pansies, most of us are running 18" if not more. Hockey pucks are the best method, try to get them in bulk on ebay. The ones with the Avalanche logo seem to work best. Anyway welcome to the site, it is the best. And yeah, I saw your jokes, very nice

 

My bad.

 

no worries dude.

 

Hijack: Is your Optima the reversed pos/neg one? Or the normal one?
