Best kit for rock krawler/mud bogger 95 4Runner

[jvalasky]

Agreed. I've researched part-for-part, and Low Range (who carries most or all of Trail-Gear and All-Pro's line-up) almost always beats the originators prices. As for the description of the kit, just look for the IFS Eliminator kit.

I looked the IFS Kit up and it was the same as the one on 4 wheel parts. What do they 3",4",& 5" springs mean? Is that what pretty much lifts it or make it a krawler type vehicle?

That's merely the height difference, depending on how big of a tire you want to run. They're all set up for the same characteristics on the trail. Take note, the shackles add an inch to each of those heights (it should be in the ad notes).

What makes it a "krawler" type vehicle is whether or not you crawl rocks with it. Whether or not it's a good rock crawler has to do with a lot more than what lift kit it has. Higher is not always better. It depends on what else you've done to the vehicle, how good you are, what your driving style is, and what kind of terrain you're on.

Seriously, man. Put down the internet and back away slowly. Go wheel your truck.

Which would be good for 35s??? How many inches?

Like is the IFS Eliminator kit a lift kit with upgraded accessories or a kit for rock krawling? Cuz I want mine to move the axles as if its a krawler with no sway bars but doing that in the mud.

I asked the Kid dude but he wants to be a **** about it all

If you want to do mud, don't waste your money on a lift. Just throw some mud tires on it and keep wheelin it stock. Then save your money and do more research on the topic. You'll thank yourself later when you realize that you didn't throw money at something you didn't want or need.

You need to listen to these guys, they know what they're talking about. Unless money isn't a problem for you have a ton of dough to burn. I've learned so much from reading their threads, they're really on point w/ these rigs.

The IFS Elim is a kit that provides everything needed to replace your front suspension, steering, and brakes with a solid front axle (as I'm sure the ad stated), minus the axle itself and a new driveshaft. The amount of lift is up to you--3, 4, or 5" (plus 1" for the shackles). For best results, combine this with the Classic rear leaf spring conversion kit in the same height. You want to lift as little as possible, to keep the center of gravity low. The 3" (4" total) should be plenty for 35's, although it is possible that your tires could rub at full flex, in which case you need to do minor sheetmetal bending (probably not needed, though). You sound extremely new to fourwheeling, so I would still reiterate getting more experience before trying this, but hey, it's your money. Best of luck, friend!

If you want to do mud bogging, just lift the toilet lid and flush all your money down the bowl. Accomplishes the same outcome.

Hom much do you care about about your body and everything, cuz there's this really cheap lift called a sawzall lift :wink2:
