There has been some internet talk of Revtek 3" front spacers in 4th gen 4runners stiffening the ride due to the large pre-load spacer.

Can anyone explain if this is indeed true. IMO this would only occur with some sort of progressive shocks, or with shocks that damp more when compressed (offset) to a new ride position due to the pre-load spacer. Or is it due to the slight change/increase in the "fulcrum" (lever action arm length) of the A-arm so that the spring stifness is felt more.

 

Here is a thread that you started, asking the same question and 15 responses

Rishi,

Right now you should be in Hollister Hills wheeling with Bulldog-Yota instead of dealing with analysis paralysis over spacers, etc.

 

Let's not miss the question, i.e. why does preload stiffen the ride. Does it really?

 

Rishi ... come on man. Did you read ANY of the threads I linked in that other thread for you? You are not using the search button, you are not even listening to the answers people have been giving you for the last few weeks!!! You just keep asking the same questions over and over again.

Go back to the damn thread where I posted about 20 links to threads about 4th gen. lift kits, and READ THEM.

NO, THE REVTEK KIT DOES NOT STIFFEN THE RIDE - NEITHER DOES THE DAYSTAR KIT.

 

Look at some of the things in post #3:

I have to admit, I'm a little suspicious. You come here calling NE's sliders the "perfect 4th gen. slider" without having even seen them, you criticize Hanna's sliders, and then you ask all these questions that we've all been over four thousand times ... when you get an answer, you don't listen, and start a new thread asking the same damn question, or one very similar to it!

Would you PLEASE just go to Hollister with bulldog and see these systems in person? It is obvious you are not getting the answers you want here, as no matter how much we tell you, you just ask the same question again.

 

rOcky, appreciate your searches and replies. It would be great if other 3" Revtek lift users also commented on the ride quality.

 

Rishi, other users HAVE commented on the ride quality if you would just take some time to look at those threads I mentioned!
