I thought I would do the patriotic thing today...

Aint nothing more patriotic than lifting your 4Runner on the 4th of July! It took me and my 17 year old 7 hours to do the whole enchilada. We removed Xreas, piece of cake, and installed the Toytec pre-assembled 5100 kit with Toytec springs on all fours. It sits 4"+ higher up front and 3" higher in the back! I'm sure it will settle. Absolutely, plush to drive-not at all stiff. Off to alignment shop tomorrow. Happy 4th everybody!

Any problems with having so much lift up front so far? Do you have adjustable UCA's ??
 
I would imagine if it sustained a 4" lift I would have issues with alignment. Toytec advertised this as a 3" lift so I'm hoping it settles...I have 5 miles on the lift thus far.
 
I noticed you have the rola roof basket on your rig. Do you have any issues with wind noise going above 60 mph?

BTW - Your lift looks NICE!

Gotcha. Looks great man, keep me updated to if you have any issues with your UCA's , cause i'm on the fence to if I''m gonna need new UCA's or not.
 
Nice upgrade!

Lets get this party started.... :painkiller:

The Rola noise is negligible, its a bit more noisy without the air deflector..... but overall a great rack for camping supplies. I'm in the process of retrofitting my rockymount bike rack up there. That may increase noise factor..?
