Check out the lift FAQ thread for tons of information on all of the different lift options.
4Runner's can't be "leveled" like a pickup. Pickups are traditionally higher in the rear than the front from the factory so they don't sag too low when they are loaded. A leveling kit only raises the front so the truck appears higher. They are usually done by spacers, which do not increase the functionality of the suspension. They are the cheap lift of choice for pavement princesses and the like.
If you want your 4runner to sit taller, you'll need to lift the front and back. A cheap spacer lift can be had for $200 or so if you really want to go that route.
