    1999 4runner build highschool/college edition

    It’s been about a year since I’ve posted on here and there hasn’t been a lot of change. I replaced my tires with BF Goodrich 265/75r16 and they ride so much better and are essentially silent. I’ve replaced the front end again with SPC UCA’s, LCA’s with whiteline bushings, LBJ’s, and tie rods...

    What do you guys think of 32's with ~2.5-3" lift?

    This has been talked about many times, so I'm sure you'll get people who say "use the search function", but if I had to do everything over again I'd get 265/75 wildpeaks or another AT tire of that size and a 2" lift. 3 and I think it personally doesn't look great. Also want to keep my cg low...

    1999 4runner build highschool/college edition

    This summer was a lot of fun. I took a lot of day trips and a couple decent size trips. In May, I went mountain biking in Bentonville, Ar with my brother and two other friends. It was about a 2500 mile round trip by the time we were home and it was a blast. 4Runner did perfectly and we were...

    Anyone running Fox 2.5 Extended front Coilovers? (FOX-883-02-023)

    If you get Fox or Kings again, definitely go through accutune. Custom valving to your choice for free with the purchase of the coilovers, or they have the 90/10, 50/50, or 10/90 street/dirt valving. If you aren't going fast off-road, I'd suggest the 90/10 valving, because it will give the...

    Asking for Trouble with 37s?

    It's a pretty stupid amount of work to clear 37's and ALMOST everyone who has hates their lives and goes back down. I wouldn't do it in the name of saving $120. About 10 fillups and you'll be breaking even. Then it's downhill from there. Sorry to be a bum, but just trying to save a brother lol

    1999 4runner build highschool/college edition

    Oh boy, after almost a year here we are. I'm thinking about making a whole thread on the absolute process and things that go unspoken when doing this project. It's the home made OSR kit with 7.5 wraps because no other coil spring is long enough. Here are my key takeaways. 1.) it's "easy". Took...

    Connor's Long Travel '97 Build Thread

    Might as well see what you can get for the entire kit. Kings are going to be a big selling point. Maybe you could just trade some guy his entire stock setup if it's any good and get some money on top. Also, tuning beats travel numbers any day period. Stock 4runners have looked better than full...

    DIY Long Travel Plans

    Thanks a ton for the info and quick response! I'll definitely be taking a look at those files when I have access to a computer that has it on there. Your original seemed to be the easiest to just weld up and required the least amount of cutting. I do have a buddy with access to a plasma cutter...

    DIY Long Travel Plans

    Alright so I'm resurrecting this ancient post, but do you have any other info on this original LT setup of yours? All I have is an angle grinder, welder and a few hundred bucks lol. I just got done long traveling the rear and the front cannot keep up anymore. do you know how much travel this...

    1999 4runner build highschool/college edition

    Had some fun after working on my friend @fl_2runner rig replacing all the belts and his ac pulley. Went down an empty dirt rode and after making sure it was clear, got some high speed flyby's in. It was our little sliver of desert in Georgia. To check out the video, visit my instagram @4_runnin99

    Cam bolts

    If you have adjustable UCA's I'd get the 333fab cam eliminators

    1999 4runner build highschool/college edition

    Small update, but my steering wheel wrap was falling apart and after unstiching it, the original leather was ripping as well. Thought I should spend $5 on paracord instead of $20 for a crappy cover or $50-150 on a new wrap. I mean I guess it's cool...super broverlander. Feels good and doesn't...

    T4rchadly's "RADRNR" build thread (IFS wannabe rock crawler on 37s)

    If what I think you're saying is correct, wicked offroad makes some for $100/pair and they seem pretty low profile to give you max up travel at ride height. WC 3rd Gen (1996 - 2002) Toyota Bucket Shock Mount

    '98 lift questions (from a noob)

    I'd go with regular 5100's if you only want to go with the 890's. The extended ones will require extending the bumpstops, which will decrease your downtravel. That is not something you want to do with only ~2.5" lift
