Frequently Asked Questions:

Q- were the pics you posted of a stock height with JUST the BL or was there anything else on there with it?
A-Below this post there are multiple photos of vehicles with varying lifts, feel free to compare to what you are wanting for your own truck.

Q- How much time does it take to manufacture and you drop off in the mail?
A- It takes me about a business day to make then i can generally get it shipped that same day.

Q- Is this a complete straight forward kit? anything else required on my part? or is everything there?
A- Yes, Most of the vehicles that purchase my lift kits do not have factory bumpers, If yours does, then a gap will be present depending on the size of lift you purchase. I describe what hardware and holes need to drilled in order to raise the bumper back up so that it once again looks like a lifted truck.

Q- Can i just throw this on my stock[ish] 4Runner with out issues.
A- Yes, works on stock or modified 4Eunners.

Q- Are they all going to be gray /purple i wouldn't mind something that stood out a little bit and wasn't the straight forward black any ways.
A- The color is black, not purple, gray or white. I make sure I order black.

Q- When they say BL's cause premature shock wear.... how "premature" are we talking..?
A- Actually ive never heard of that. With body lifts there is no added stress points that cause premature failure. There is only side effect to a body lift, that is it raises the center of gravity so your body sway might be more noticeable.


Trouts-runner -"Yes, I would recommend this set to anyone. The instructions make it very easy, even if you are not mechanically inclined."
Ghost Dog- "Just got this installed this morning! +1 for a great product."
Tbuzz- "I ordered and he shipped the next day. Good business, thanks"

Well... Where were you a month ago when I bought mine from another supplier??! Looks good man, hope business treats you well! :)
 
Everyone can thank xwesling for getting me started in 4th gen BL. Because of him I will have instructions and bolt sizes
 
Ordered a 1/2" BL and it delivered very quick. Took me a week or two to get around to the install.
The main reason for this is to create a bigger gap between the front bumper, sliders and rear bumper. I only had a bout 1/2" or less of gap in those places. Although fitment looked nice and tight I found that while off rodaing the body and frame flex quite a bit. The front bumper was contacting the fenders sometimes and the rear bumper would bounce around and contact there as well. For the cost of this 1/2" BL I figured I wanted to give it a try on my 5th Gen. The install was pretty straight forward and made it easier with the help of a buddy. I like the little bit of taller stance it gave to it too.

I think you are the first 5th gen with a body lift
 
bump.. pictures updates.

also [MENTION=105843]OVERLAND IN TX[/MENTION] is working on a larger 1.5" install for everyone else.
 
I ordered my kit from you on Tuesday of last week and it delivered on Thursday. I put my 1/2" BL on this past Saturday. It took me 2 hours and I have no regrets. I had a little rub in the front even after trimming all I could. I wanted just enough of a body lift to eliminate the rub, but I didn't want issues with steering, radiator relocating or moving bumper mounts. With the 1/2" BL, I didn't have to disconnect any steering components or move bumper mounts or the radiator. I now have no rub in the front when turning and I'm 1/2" higher, for only $30. Best bang for the buck I have spent in a while.
 
2" bl

Do you know of any issues for the 2" kit, I have always heard to stick with the 1.5 to steer clear of any issues. I have stock bumpers and the toytec 3" spacer lift right now. I have a 2004 Sport Edition, V8.

I have a 2.5" kit on mine, no issues besides making the bumper cover in the rear fit. I trimmed the bottom of it to come over the metal underneath and it's fine. You will have to loosen the bracket holding the abs wire on the front too. Other than that, was quite easy to do.
 
Finished the 1.5" BL and the OP has all the details. For more information contact him, not me.

Oh, and do I love sitting an 1.5" taller. :dance:
