Toytec Ultimate 3" lift: My thoughts/Your measurements?

Hey guys,

Just recently had the Toytec 3" Ultimate installed with light racing UCAs and Goodyear Duratec 285/70/R17s. I had the shop set it to 2.5" of lift just b/c I have a wife w/ a 1 month old...had to make sure she could get in and out ok before sending it up to the 3" level. With that said, what are your measurements after you got it lifted?

On mine, ground to bottom of fender in the front is 38" and ground to bottom of fender in rear is 39.5". Top of tire to bottom of fender in front is 6.5" and top of tire to bottom of fender in rear is 8". Ground to bottom of pumpkin in rear is roughly 10". The front end of the 4Runner seems to sit a bit lower so I guess I have the same issue that others have fixed. Just curious if others are in a similar ballpark?

Overall the lift has been great. The ride is great..not stiff at all. Very close to the smooth stock ride. Nose dive has improved drastically! Tire noise is hardly any different than it was with regular hwy tires. Even my wife said "I thought you said get ready cause these tires might be loud." Now just waiting for my Allpro sliders to be powdercoated and my Gobi Stealth/Budbuilt fairlead/TE parts to come in.

Just curious what you guys have for measurements? Any recommendations on what you think is the best setup as far as height in front and back? Not sure how I feel about the front being slightly lower than the rear. I realize the fenders on the 4runner are slightly different when comparing front to back...but I've seen a lot of guys do things to make it look even.

Looks really good as it is. Leave it there and keep the front where its is at so you don't loose any more down travel. Plus I like a little rake on my rides.
 
Looks good!

Who did your lift install? I am in the Wilmington area as well and looking to get my 4runner lifted.

Thanks everyone. Low Range 4x4 of Wilmington did the install. (Low Range 4×4 |). They also mounted the tires and outsourced the alignment with a guy in town that does all of their projects. They are great guys. Super clean shop....very professional and outgoing to get things right with cust satisfaction. A lot of their projects are featured in off road magazines.

Make sure you go to Jeff Potter at Livewire Powdercoating too. (Livewire Powder Coating | Livewire Powder Coating). Awesome guys there too.
 
looks good man! i wouldn't worry about the little rake.. i did 2.5 up front and 2 in the rear to keep a little rake but yours is more even than mine.. i like the way yours sits!! Congrats!
 
Spotted

Kind of funny, but I parked next to you in the Harris Teeter parking lot on Saturday of last week. You've got a nice truck. I think I left before you though.
