JD Fabrication Lower Arm Pivots
Anyone done this yet or plan on it? I think I'll take a stab at it next year for 35" tires on my 4Runner. Simple enough to do and can use stock lower control arms. Just cut off your lower control arm mounts and weld these in, allows for up to an inch movement forward.

Here is a bit of an update. JD Fab now makes a specific kit for the 4runners and FJ Cruiser to relocate the lower pivot mounts.

Very cool! I love the trick items that people come up with to solve various problems. If I had unlimited funds I would put most on "just because!"

I don't see why it wouldn't. They have the same front frame section. The only tricky bit will be if you have KDSS like me. But I'm going to push that all forward as well equal to what I move the lower bit forward. They have a upper control arm to go with the lower pivot kit as well to really dial in the caster. But yeah, I'm definitely going to give this a go next year once I'm finished my Tacoma build.

Upper control arm.

@canadian bum and I are talking with a guy that modified the kit to fit an FJ. Its possible from what it sounds like, just some minor differences apparently.

This is very interesting. Solves a couple issues. I think you could do the same with modified control arms instead, but the price on this kit is pretty decent. Cheaper than LCAs and it appears to be pretty easy to install too.
