Custom b.l. Question

[3rd gen king]

Question:
Upon installing my 2" body lift, do I need steering extension?

I am 2wd, I know I need to loosen the tranny rod, but I've heard I don't new a fan drop. So will I need a steering extension?? I'm gonna fab up a bracket for the bumper.

And it's custom so there are no confusing instructions to follow like 4crawlers site :boink:

You will need a steering extension. As far as the radiator, you will either need to lower it (2") or remove the bottom of the fan shroud (removing the shroud can reduce the slow moving cooling since there is a big gap at top and nothing at the bottom for the fan to suck against).

Yep just like Gerdo said, i have a 2wd 2002 4runner and needed the steering extension.

Why? The Toytec 2" body lift isn't that expensive and there is no "confusing" website. It comes with the steering extension, radiator drop brackets, and spacers and hardware.

I made one myself but it wasn't free. I had to buy longer bolts and washers.

I am going to stuff 37"s under my Tacoma. So I will be making a 3" Body lift also, to get some clearance.

Never heard about 37"s on here , didn't know they existed

And for the extension, I heard if i get the old bolts from the body (longer ones replaced them) I would be fine with them and a solid aluminum spacer. Ehh?

Good one, but I was being serious. The Max I though fit on our rigs was 33's with a bit of rub. But Hey i guess I just got schooled.:reddance:
