I'm thinking a lot of that lift is body/spacer lift? Wondering how the CVs could look that good with 6" any other way.

That 5th gen is running the ProComp 6" FJ kit. Drop brackets and new knuckles keep the CVs and tie rod angles almost factory like.
OP- nice 4runners! Thanks for sharing.

I see the KDSS has been axed. Definitely wouldn't work with that drop bracket lift.

Rear is lifted by a spring and a spacer. Link isn't changed.
