A coil spacer lift for $360 is a good deal?

You can buy the same thing for less than half that elsewhere.

Yeah, Daystar spacer lifts are ~$170 new (front and rear) and they aren't any worse or better then the more expensive Revtek. You can find Daystars used on here pretty often for ~$100 or less. And the diff drop that comes with the Revteks is $25 when you get it separately.

That said, spacers will wear out your stock coils quickly and make the truck ride like crap immediately because the spacers preload the front coils. ~90% of people who buy spacer lifts end up replacing them with a coil spring lift within a year or 2 (myself included). I say do it right the 1st time and save up some more dough for a better lift that won't limit your flex, ruin your coils, or ride crappy. Check out the http://www.toyota-4runner.org/3rd-gen-t4rs/66976-3rd-gen-4runner-lift-information-faqs.html thread to see what your options are.

2.5" spacer lifts

Hope I'm not tearing up your thread but I am doing the same thing and have questions. I've searched and searched but no luck. I am wondering what all needs to be replaced when adding 2.5" spacer lift. Is there a major need for a diff drop? This 4R is my wifes and doesn't see any off road, it's just for looks. Thanks in advance and let me know if I'm butting in here!:guitar3:

So my 2001 suspension has had it, and now it is an extremely rough/bouncy ride. I have no intention of selling the vehicle and would like to go through with a lift. I have been looking at this OME Lift @ Toytec:

Complete OME suspension for 96-02 4Runner - Toytec Lifts: Toyota Lift Kits: FJ Cruiser Lift Kits, Tacoma Lift Kits, Tundra Lift Kits, 4 Runner Lift Kits, Sequoia Lift Kits, Toyota Truck Lift Kits

What can i expect of a ride quality after it is installed compared to what i am feeling now?
Also I am planning on getting the shocks/struts pre-assembled and ready for a bolt on application......thoughts.

no thread jacking!!!! im just give you a warning b4 the whole forum jumps on you

read the sticky thread about lifting, but to answer your question yes if you wheel, no if just for streets

Sorry, I'm new to Toyota_4runner.org. I'm use to other forums not caring about thread jacking and take advantage of mutiple user questions about the same topic originally posted. But; I will abide by the rules here. It won't happen again.

yeah the 3" spacer lift is a great kit if you are on a budget.

Obviously replacing the suspension with new shocks and springs will give you better ride quality both on and offroad. But if you are on a budget, the "best seller" kit is great.
