Is this setup good idea or not? I have 4Runner 3.0 TurboDiesel -94 and 33x10.50R15 BfG ATs on stock alloys (7x15 offset +8). Thereīs minor rubbing (on the inner fenderfell back plastic) at full articulation, and thatīs why I wanted to lift it a little. I think I put higher lower bump stops also that I get over of this rubbing.

Is this the best combination of these: easy to do, cheap, good comfort/flexibility?

 

I think the spacers will lessen rubbing but not necessarily eliminate it when the wheels are fully stuffed. Basically you'll have more compression travel so it will take more to get the wheel all the way up there. However, if you can still get the lower a-arm to sit on the bump stops, the tire will be just has deep in the wheel well as it is now.

However, as far as funcitonality, add some longer shocks for the rear and you should enjoy more suspension flex for better on road ride as well as off road performance.

Go for it. I have Frank's spacers on my rig and they work well.

 

Ok, I havenīt heard anything else negative but the angle of CVs. How about the front shocks, are those long enough? I think rear ones are ok. I have now Monroe Magnums.

And one thing, what are those small hollows which is shown in picture? Water holes?

Whatīs your opinion of necessarity of the rear stabilizer bar?

 

Works great for me, I dont have the turbo diesel, but no more concerns from me. I had some issues with the steel stock rims and rubbing. Dunlop rad rovers 31-10.5. but I switched to rock crawler rims, ($30.00 a piece) and the problem was solved. No issues with the shocks on the front, but I did switch to Old Man Emu all the way around due to the old ones were shot, well that and the yellow looks good under there. lol

 

Keep in mind that the while the spacers are 1.5" the best way to use them is to lower the t-bar adjustment down after installing them so you don't get 1.5" of lift from them. They are a great product though and I love mine.

Yes, the little slots at the bottom are for water to drain out.

 

Lower the t-bar adjustment down... You mean loosen them? Why? Softer ride? I think the normal t-bar setting is good compromise between comfort and height. Some people put 26 mm bars and crank them up... I think itīs quite hars ride with them and they reduse flexibility too.

 

Yes, softer ride and more flex, but also if you don't your CV's will be maxed out.
