33x1250s and 1" BL

Finally got the 33x1250s! I've had the 1" BL on for a while but just wanted to show pic of the new tires and clearance.











Clearance Pics:




The last two pics are at full crank, i know I'm going to have to pound the pinch weld but thats no biggy.

Super nice 4runner, very nice for just a 1" body lift. But white walls out?? the letters will be yellow before you know it and it looks kinda yucky. 10/10 for over all though

I went white walls out cause, I had black out on the tires before and I wanted to see what I thought about it. I don't mind it now but you are right when they turn yellow it won't be too nice. My next pair or even if i get some extra cash I might turn 'em around. Highly doubtful since any extra cash will be goin' toward leveling it out new gears and a locker...

Good call on the white wall out. With black rims I feel the white helps accent everything.

Just srub them with a firm brush when you wash your truck, they will be fine. Mine are a little darker white, but I kinda half arse it.

Cool, man. Looks good.
GOod call on the white-letter thing. I wish I mounted mine that way.
Some of these guys feel that any strictly appearance-only mods should be
forbidden, but go with what you like.

BTW

Way to give a big F--- You! to rear sag

that looks good! You should just crank your tbars an inch or so till you get BJ spacers. Also, you might think of painting the little golden nubbins black. flex shots now!!! NOWWWWW

I've never liked the gold 4runners... they always seemed a little to 'mexicanish' to me lol... But yours looks awesome! Good work!

Question though.... When you do a 1'' body lift, do you just lift the rear, or both the front AND rear. Or can you do one without the other? Like just doing the 1'' body lift on the rear and leaving the front alone?

You're worried about the "mexican" look all the way up there in Minnesota?



I just got my 1" body lift today also.

Is it just me, or does your 4Runner look higher in the back than in the front?

Thanks guys! And to answer a few questions it is herculiner which was on of the best mods for me. I enjoyed doing it and it turned out well i thought.

n16ht5 what are the "little golden nubbins" is that a term i should know? and if so i probably do need to paint them black. and flew shots will be up very soon after i pound the pinch weld back a little I'll get some up.

and no when you do a BL you can only lift the whole car. You can't only lift the rear. My rear end does did higher. It's a long story short but when i bought the coils form a yotatech member, I didn't think that there would be that much lift out of them so I didn't worry about BJ Spacers. hen me and my buddy were done installing i realized i should have bought the spacers but they will be in soon and i just might crank the torsion bars until i get em i never really thought about cranking them and then relaxing them when i got the BJ spacers.

yah the little gold nubbins are the little caps over your drive flanges that cover up the littlenut. on your front wheels.


totaly crank the t bars til you get bj spacers.. just dont go more than 1.25"-1.5" and you will be ok. it will look golden '

The cool thing now-a-days is blackwalls out...of course it's cooler to do what's not cool, so white letters out is cooler...of course it's actually cooler to do whatever you want regardless of whats cool or not cool.


Looks sweet!

Being a non conformist is conforming to non-conformity.

Looks real nice.

After some pounding, BJ spacers, and new shocks I have new pics! with front sag fixed!







It took about 3 hours to put in BJ spacers, patch up some holes in my buddies floorboard, put new shocks in, and put turn downs on my other buddies F-150. We got to use my friends car lift and air tools, i had no clue what i was missing out on!

Oh yeah, air tools and a car lift make all the difference. Couldn't pay me enough to do it the old fashion way lol.

Looks very good. How much clearance with those bj spacers at full crank now?
