Dude you desperately need bigger tires.

Or gold 100-spokes for those low-rider treads

How much lift do you have, bigger and wider tires will make it look better. Look nice and clean though. Lift and truck.

thanks guys....yup, must get the bigger tires on, but these did help a bit with the gas. I got bfg 33x12.50's a bit ago and will be mounting them the next paycheck. The lift was just under there while I was getting the panhard back on the truck....I just grabbed the cam and snapped a pic real quick. I'm not sure on the exact amount of lift as I didn't take any base measurements when it was stock.

Wow... I may have to go with the OME coils... So, is that about 5" of lift?
Actually, I'll probably stay where I am... I'm going to go long travel in the future up front.

Nice amount of lift....did you have to do any other mods to the rear at all for that height?? (drop brackets etc..)

And it needs those 33's bad!!!

it's got a drop bracket, but I don't think it's needed now that I've got that adjustable panhard bar on......I will eventually have to adjust the pinion angle and I took out the lspv a while back for a disc conversion later on so I didn't have to worry about that.

Make sure you do a thread on how skinning the underside went and what steps you took, I for one am very interested in doing the same.

Very Nice 4Runner.

I am running a slightly lower rear lift (cruser coils + 1.5" spacer) and I get a bad diveline vibration when decelerating at high speed (anything above 40 MPH).

Do you have any driveline problems ?
Are you using stock lupper and lower links?

Thanks
