4x4Lamm

I'm about to order all the crap needed to lift my 4Runner. Before I go spending $1500 I would like to hear some "OKs", "good plan" and such...

95 4Runner with auto and 4.88 gears (3.0 V6)

Rear: OME HD coils, OME long travel nitrocharger shocks, Downey SS brake line and brackets for brakes.

Front: BJ spacers, OME nitrocharger long travel shocks, T-Bar adjustmant to level it all out, Downey SS brake lines

Wheels: 15x8 AR Outlaw 11s w/ 3.75" backsapcing

Tires: Cooper Discoverer STT 32x11.50R15 (this tire runs slightly larger than other 32's I have been told)

I want to avoid pounding/cutting as mutch as possible (helps prevent rust) and I want NO rubing. I tow on occasion and I don't mind a rough ride.

In the future, Like 2 years or so, I want to regear with ARBs and Run 33x12.50 MTs. So I figure coil spacers, stiffer T-Bars and a Downey panhard bracket will allow me to do this cheaply with the above mentioned setup already in use.

So what do you all think? Charge it, or back to the drawing board.

I think youll be happy with that. Im still running 31's with virtually the same setup (less the extended brake lines) on my 92 runner

Sounds like a pretty sweet setup, I'd wait for some other 2nd gen guys to chime in and double check everything.

I'd save money and time by getting 33x12.50s now rather than later....especially since you already have 4.88's.

Strap22 is running the same OME suspension, 33's, auto trans, and he just regeared to 4.88's.

Looks complete, man. I'd just put the 33's on now, especially 33x10.5's, but it'll work great with 32's also!

A lot of people say the 4.88s with 33s are not enough though. I would like em...

but I don't wanna be stuck with tires that bog me down too much, kill my MPG and make OD worthless.

Ahhhh, I wish I knew...

I have 4.88's and 32's and with 33x12.5's it'd be nice to have a little bit lower gears. Not necessary, but it might be nice. 33x10.5's shouldn't hurt it too much though, I doubt if they'd be worse than 32's.

Sounds like everything would work fine.

You can go cheaper though, if you want. Cruiser coils in the rear and you don't need new brake lines for the front. The rear brake line bracket(s) can easily be made with some scrap steel or a run down to the hardware store. With cruiser coils, you'll probably need to get the panhard drop sooner rather than later.
