Cornfed 2/1

Looks good, told you that you would like it in the end. Any plans for taking off your running boards? That's another thing that will help compliment the lift.

Thanks!

Maneuvering the shock assembly was a bas**** and a half... but, No I never touched the ball joint... do you think that is going to be a safety issue?

Safety issue, Not at all. Just a more difficult install. I cannot imagine doing it with out the added maneuverability provided by undoing the joint. I had such a hard time getting the assembly back in with the ball joint disconnected, perhaps it was because the xreas limited the area of movement, do you have xreas?

Dont forget the alignment and headlamp adjustment.

Esp dont forget the alignment. I noted a few things with my alignment, one of them being: make sure you go to a place that has an alignment specialist who can set the machine for the new dimensions. This is pretty important.

As for the headlamp adjustment, I didn't do it. I always thought mine were too low, and now they are just right. I've only had someone flash me once about it.
 
Looks awesome !!!! hard to tell the rake with it not being on a level surface as the before picture .

I like to have atleast an inch of rake . I don't like the level look. It seem the bodystyle of the 4R makes it look rear heavy.

I think the 2/1 is perfect for these trucks for looks but not an over kill.

yeah lots of people have em. Trust the mighty search button.
 
not to hijack my thread of awesomness... but is the search bar working for all of you? I've been searching Cruiser Rims for pics of FJ wheels, but get 1 or 2 results. I did the same thing last week and I got 6 or 7 pages.

In response to DenZ. I just installed the 3/2 Cornfed and it is awesome. I waivered between 2/1 and 3/2 and am glad I went with the 3/2. It looks and rides great with the tires I am running. With the assistance my brother and complete air power the entire installation took about 3 hours. The Cornfed kit is extremely well-designed. One issue with the instructions was that the photo showing how to align the spring/shock assembly was off by about 90 degrees.
 
Thanks R104. Good thing that you noticed some issue about the instructions. I'll take not of that.

Guys, I would like to get your opinion on doing it. I know doing it by your self is more better but I'm planning the mechanic to do it for me as I'm not competent / comfortable enough to do it. Do you think those mechanic availble like Maidas, Napa etc., can do it properly or there any special mechanic to do it?

BTW if anybody from Chicago area that can recommend any good mechanic?

Thanks Again.

You will need to take it to an offroad shop, not just a regular mechanic. Call around and ask for pricing, it should be in the $300-$400 range for 3-4 hours of work.
 
New FJ Wheels and Running Boards gone!

nice truck

Nice 4Runner Simple. I have an 05 SR5. I think the square wheel fenders look great with the lift. How do you attach your photos? I would like to post one of mine. Was it easy to take off the running boards?

Thanks,

R104
 
Thanks! I upload them to imageshack.us and then I click the img button below the size scroll down button on the reply thread screen, and put the paste the website that imageshack gave me.

And taking off the RB is super easy. I think its a 12mm socket. Just get under your car and take out the 6 bolts. Once I got the board out I put the bolts back in though.

Thanks for the instructions Simple - I'm practicing a photo attachment. The only thing that might hold me back from taking off the running boards is that I use a Thule rack sometimes (as shown in the picture) and it's kind of nice to be able to stand on the running board.
