Well I got it all installed today! I went from a budget leveling kit to a 2.5/1.5 daystar lift! I am very pleased to say the least! It took me about 4 hrs to do the complete install!

mine and your car are twins, except my door handles arent chrome. The lift looks really good, I am getting rid of my 16" rims cause i hate mine. Upgrading to some FJ wheels. keep upgrading and keep posting pictures, it would be cool to have a picture side by side of my car and yours cause they are just the same haha

yeah I am wanting to get new wheels soon! but i have brand new 265/70/16 michelins right now!
 
Looks good, can I ask, why you decided to upgrade to the 2.5/1.5? Additionally what are you doing with your leveling kit now that you have the lift on? Interested in selling it? Can I call dibs?
Thanks,
Jeff
 
Looks good! Do you have anything besides the 2.5/1.5? looks pretty high up for the daystar kit, maybe its just the tire size.
 
Your before pics with just the level helps me out a ton. That is all I want in terms of stance. I will be doing the same one way or another with some 5100 s and maybe some fj coils. Figure I can get a better ride and achieve that nice level look without raising anything much.

How hard was it to do? I like that stance. Do you have xreas? Everything else stock?

It's a really easy kit to install. Took me ~5 hours, and that's with some cursing and smashed knuckles from trying to get some bolts out that had rusted from being a northern truck.

Nope just the Daystar and the wheels! Rides like a cloud still and I get a lot of commits from people about how high it sits! Easy easy install!
 
^^ I also pulled the trigger on the daystar 2.5/1.5 after seeing these pics, was going to go toytec 3/1.5 spacer lift but the pics ive seen the runner still looks raked with the toytec and the cornfed 3/2. same color and same wheel/tire size as this but im going to leave my running boards IMO id rather look at them then frame. Ill post pics with before/after measurements when its complete next weekend. Thanxx for the post!
 
Same here. Just bought the leveling kit from amazon. Will be here Friday cause we roll w/ the Prime membership.

Now, to find someone to help me install it, or a shop that'll do it while I'm at work. HUMMMMM.
