Cool thanks alot! So its roughly 2" O.D. and an inch long?

I'm at around 350 for all napa stuff. Went with the ceramic pad (performer I think they called it?), rotors, and calipers which are oem rebuilds. Perform great and man is it a huge difference!

Hey guys, So I can do some good work on a lathe and wondering if anyone would mind sharing the dimensions on their diff drop spacers so I could make some for myself?...don't know if this is so called sacred info but If I can make some myself it would save me mucho money! Thanks! :cheers:

Yeah stock brakes suck on 285s. I actually was a good 3 car lengths back but 55 to 0 is pretty hard to stop for any vehicle in that distance.

We'll went to get things started on that 4Runner and it was sold just before I called. Back to the drawing board

Haha me either but this one looks like it may of come from out of state. Found another in New Hampshire but they want 4700.

I don't see why it wouldn't work? We can use tacoma shocks so i can imagine the coils are the same or close in diameter. If anything, you might need to switch the top hats out to 4runner if they are wider but I cannot see them being a wider coil

No good news. Drivers side tire is pushed back an inch and rubbing on the fender when it wasn't before. Think the frame may be bent because the frame paint is all chipped on the drivers side. Found a rust free 2000 for 3500 bucks that I'm thinking about buying and swapping my lift over and...

Still waiting on my shocks....guy told me it would be up to 2 weeks to get them from bilstein and its been over that now and haven't heard from him

Yea thankfully it's minor and if the rim wasn't dented I easily could've drivin it home. Going to tear into it Monday and straighten things out and double check. Definitely think it's tundra brake time though. Good reason to finally do it haha. Aftermarket bumper isn't going to happen yet...

Here's a before and after before the crash

Sadly I don't have the time for a build thread for you guys but try to post as much as I can but I have a 99 v6 5 speed with bilstein 5100 fronts on 99 stock springs with superflex coils in the rear that going to be paired with 7100s as soon as they arrive. Also on 285s with 1.25 wheel spacers...

I bought the 7100 with remote resi part number AK7112SB. Its the short body 12" travel. Have to wait though because the company i ordered from ran out so they needed to order mine from bilstein. Im going to start work on a tube mount soon.

Just put in my order for some bilstein 7100s with 12 inches of travel. After doing lots of reading on that other thread, that is what they were recommending. I think I'm going to do the tube mount set up as I have a bender and some 1.5 inch tubing laying around! Can't wait for them to come in.

Running on 265/70/16 also until i find a good set of 285s
