Anyone have a installation guide they can link to? I've never done a suspension mod myself. Tried searching but couldn't come up with a good install thread.
@ Jason B
does this come with instructions? Thanks

I ordered the 2/1 lift kit for my 2016 TRDP. I was back and forth on lifting the rear the same as the front. But, since I am planning on adding about 150lbs of skid places, most of which is in the front half of the vehicle, I figured Id bias for that.
I wont be home for a couple months, but I'll report back once I get it installed.

Cool. Sounds good. Def post pics when you can.
I'm keeping this sale for a little longer since this has generated some sales. Get it while you can.

Finally got around to installing the 1" spacer lift on my 2016 TRD PRO 4runner, while I didn't do it myself- my mechanic said it was very easy to install and well made.
It's achieved the "leveled" look I was going for and should help with added clearance when I swap out to larger tires.
It could just be me, but the truck drives a lot better too! It feels much more stable.
Thanks again Jason!

Damn! That looks great! It's about time I get a nice installed photo
Yea, that's the 1" leveling that I have on super sale right now as well as the lift kits. UHMW and no spring compressor needed for install on the leveling. Will NOT compress either like POLYURETHANE can and will! This is good stuff and you will never lose the amount of life over time.

You aren't crazy, it DOES ride better after installed. I call it a "more secure" feeling, especially over expansion joints on the highway. Other kits can bee too squishy when it's polyurethane/rubber kit material, but not with this UHMW.

What kit would be needed for TEP to maintain stock geometry and ride? 2/1? Doe those need spring compressors for install? And what's lead time/ship time?

Give me a ring or text 717-319-2100 and I can go over it all. The 1" leveling doesn't need compressor, anything over does. Some places are listing kits incorrectly, but anything over 2" will.
Order today, ship today still probably, 2 day priority,.

Forgive my ignorance, as I have zero experience with lifts/suspension.
I seem to have read on the forum a few times about needing different (or whatever the correct term is) upper control arms for lifts 3" and greater. Is the correct or am I misunderstanding something?
I'm in the market for a 4Runner and the 3" front/2" rear lift kit Looks interesting.
The vehicle will be mainly used on pavement, so don't really need a lift with suspension...just something to make 4Runner taller without compromising the ride.
