Hey everyone im getting ready to throw a bunch of cash at my runner. I have an 87 4runner that I have been building for a while now. Its my daily driver for the most part, as in it takes me to work and back on a straight highway with only 2 turns lol. But being an IFS setup I had wanted more so i installed a Blazeland long travel system in the front and the All Pro rear lift kit in the rear about 3 years ago. The Blazeland kit has held up and worked great the whole time and I will be using it on another 87 I have thats another project. So Nate, great job on that setup, its been a great time on the rocks.
But now i am swapping that out and swapping in a solid axle. I do mainly all rock crawling and trail riding. I usually stay out of the mud and never see the dunes so im curious on the pros and cons of 2 things.
1. Do i do a 3 link setup or leaf springs for the front? Will a link setup take away it being my work transport?
2. Do i go for coilovers or standard shocks? Why?
Those are my main questions, i just want this thing to be super flexy and still be able to get me the 5 miles to work on the highway.
