It is but it isn't lol...everything was pretty close but not close enough to lineup

This is the only pick i have, but could take more for you.

I put 87? mr2 seats in my 97 4runner and LOVE them! I had to cut the sliders and weld the 4runner legs on then made a bracket for the seatbelts

No offense taken at all! Not really looking for someone to do all the math for me, but more looking to see if anyone tried it with or without success. IBALLENGINEER, i take your words seriously and thank you for taking the time to respond. I know lots of people get frustrated reading posts of...

I was looking at basically a °15-max °20 "adjustment

Thank you. Yeah i guess i wrote it as a dumbed down post. Ive done lots of fab work on other things, just not a factory control arm. What i was really looking at was cutting and rolling the end of the control arm up then rebracing/welding inplace to give the upper balljoint a better (more...

That's why i was asking, the upper balljoint binds up at fulldroop acting as a stop and even sitting level with a 3" lift it is at an awful harsh angle.

Has anyone cut the end of their upper control arm off, twisted the upper ball joint upper for better alignment and rewelded it inplace to give more/free movement and lessen sideload on the upper balljoint on a lifted 4runner? Looking at it this should be a cheaper option to the uniball.

I finally got my rear locker in last night, mounted my cb antenna, ran my antenna cable from the roof rack down into the dash and have my dash tore apart to mount my cb. I'm going to my rig all ready for 4wheeling, camping, camp fires, socializing and having fun oct 21-22 down in Hedgesville...

I figure there is no hope for the noise mine makes, so i just keep my sunroof closed wgen I'm going over 40 mph and hardly hear it, but with the sunroof opened at speed you have to yell back and forth to talk to the passenger. ... as big as it is i actually use the whole thing pretty often so i...

Right now i have a 3 inch lift in the front (aftermarket struts with stock springs and 1 inch diff drop), 4-7 inch adjustable lift in rear (stock springs, raised lower spring mount, 1 inch spring spacer on top and in coil airbags). Running 305/70 16s (33s) on stock wheels with 2 inch spacers...

Dick cepek extreme country 305/70 16s. I have about 4,000 miles on them so far and LOVE them.

I paid $1,500 for my 97 with 200,000 miles on it, then did my own body work, painted it, built the roof rack and mororcycle carrier, lifted it and added 305/70 16s

I had her all loaded up like a gypsy for us to head to the beach last week! A grill, motorcycle, 3 bicycles, 2 cooler, pile of sleeping bags, 3 teenager girls and all their luggage!

Here are a couple better pics of the "mid" hitch receiver. I welded it in at an angle to hold the weight down and let the rear receiver roll down. To stiffen everything up and keep the carrier from rocking back and forth with all the weight on it i ran outriggers on each side under the...
