JD Fabrication Lower Arm Pivots

[Forged_Runner]

i do have some sort of unsafe feeling driving this.
I dont know if they set my caster too high while my wheels are already pushed forward 1 inch? possibly my steering rods? will jack up later and check out in this 20f weather

I feel unsafe on the highway going 60+, seems like the steering is very very sensitive now . I've been driving my raptor for the past 2 months though, and its track width is roughly 4" more then a stock raptor.

Did you ever figure out what caused you to feel uneasy driving? And how is it all performing now?

hi, yes it was my rear sway bar endlinks, they somehow went bad on some new under 3k mile end links..

Glad to hear that it wasn’t anything more, my kit arrived in the next week and I’m stoked to see how the install will go. Anything needed other than upper control arms? I wouldn’t assume since it’s just moving everything forward but I thought I’d ask before I’m mid install and need parts.

We’ll install is not going so we’ll since I ordered a 16+ tacoma kit. It appears to be the same as the 2nd gen kit you have which makes me wonder why it doesn’t work right now. Do you mind sending some photos all around of where it’s bolted and welded?

– JD Fabrication that was the kit that i have as well as i think what everyone else has. I will take some pics when i get a chance, it is not a simple install on the 4runner. I believe enough of it lined up for my shop to figure out the install, but it does NOT all line up.

Update on this is looks like JD Fab now makes a specific kit for the 4runner which is awesome.

Just found this thread while searching information about the JD Fab kit. Hoping someone has some miles on them now and can add comments.

Wrapping up my install on my 4th Gen 4Runner now. Having some hardware fitment issues related to the control arm bushings. Need to see if JDFab has any solutions.

their site says the rear ones need to be reamed out.
