can i get info on that roof rack , its mounted to your stock rails right?

Pretty pumped with my lift today. Huge shout-out to [MENTION=65763]noiwontsmile[/MENTION] for the help (more like I was helping him). Dave at Cornfed was also great to work with!
Forgive my crude before/afters that I made using screen shots.
FJ springs, Bilstein 5100 (1.75 in front), Cornfed 1" rear
Spidertrax
Toyo Open Country AT2 265/70/17
When she first came down I was concerned about reverse rake and measured about 3.25" up front, which seemed way off/too high. It has since quickly settled out nicely, I think the running boards give a slight impression of reverse rake but it is ok and will get better. Haven't measured since.
Pics are from only an hour after the lift.

I just put a set of NITTO 265/70/17 on mine... Clearance worked out….just barely really wanted to go with 275’s but as it is I have less than a half an inch clearance with the 265’s now I need to figure out what offset I need to go 275’s or 285’s

It is a Surco Safari Rack I got off of CL. Paid 35, disassembled it, stripped it, reinforced it, coated it with bedliner and installed tie down hooks. I coated some modified pipe brackets and used them with the existing rack. It would definately hold light bars on any/all sides. It is made up with 3/4" square aluminum tubing.

Do you have to run wheel spacers with the trd wheels.. Any pics showing how much they stick out
His build thread doesn't list them.

probably similar offset to mine. If you're going OEM wheels from any toy i'd imagine youll want spacers. or you can go SCS stealth 6's
i also dont like those taco wheels personally

Hey theliman, I'm looking to install the same suspension, spacers and tires you have and was curious how the tire noise and mpg is compared to stock? Are you still happy with the Open Cuntry AT IIs? Would you do anything differently?
Thanks
I would not have done anything differently. I think it sits perfect now. I'm in CO and got the tires because they are highly rated for snow. I can't speak much to their performance since I have had them only a few days, but they are very quiet (and I came from a very docile hwy tire).
As for the gas mileage, I was expecting a small drop. What I've seen is more like a drop of 4-5, however, this is using the computer, not hand-calculating. I was able to do roughly 20mpg around town before, now it's about 16 driving as conservatively as I can. When I hit the highway at 60mph, I'm getting 27mpg. So I think it makes sense to see those "city" drops when more of the driving is accelerating, 'cause that's when the size and weight of the tires matters more.
Not thrilled for the drop, but I knew it would happen going into it and I still think it's worth it because it looks AWESOME. And the tires look much better in person. FYI, got for $750 installed at Discount Tire.
Truck looks good.
Gotta question though. How are you utilizing your hi lift jack? What kind of lift points are you utilizing?

Just bought this 2004 4runner but I'm not sure what kind of lift it has? I can see that there are blocks on the front springs but not sure on the back. Here's some pics of it and I know you can't tell by the pictures but what do I need to look at to tell?

Just installed my 5100's at 1.75 on 2013 FJ springs. Level 8 Guardian wheels and 265/70 Silent Armors on order, should be here by the weekend. Leaky left upper ball joint calls for UCA's. Any special pricing going on right now for UCA's?

Wow, that seems like a lot. I wonder if the drop would be any less with a V8. Right now I have stock size Michelin Cross Terrains and the CPU says I'm getting around 20. That's fine with me, but not sure how I'd feel getting 15-16. Sounds like you got a great deal.
