Want an easy way to get a 3" front lift ???
Mount the lower " coil spring cups " upside down ..... 
Had to take em all back apart after I got it back on the ground and flip them once I noticed what I did

Sorry for the bad luck but I am sure glad it was not intentional. Looks like what the kids are doing all over north FL right now intentionally. They call it the "Palatka Lean". All have extremely loud exhaust too. I think it looks ridiculous but thank goodness I haven't seen a T4R yet.

No. Cali lean is TOTALLY different.
The "Cali Lean" is when they put a LT on the front, and don't do anything to the rear.
The "Carolina Squat", they intentionally raise the front, and lower the back.
Renders the truck completely useless, and dangerous.

Owing to your user name, and the banner on the wall, I would assume you'd call it a 'Gasser' 4Runner.

Cool. It appears to be a Super Comp Dragster.
I'm also involved in Dragracing. The season just ended here in Pomona today. I don't drive them, I just help make them run. Unfortunately, this wasn't our year.
The best overall season went to Tony, and the Army team.

I saw the supercharger, but noted the lack of a wing and wheelie bar, and inclusion of rear suspension. I have never worked on either of those classes, (Super Comp or Top Dragster) so my knowledge of them is limited.
Anyway, I'm sure it's fun.
