My 03' Build Thread

[4Runner8]

So I received my toytec 3 inch front and rear coil spacer kit the other day and thought I would put up some pics of the kit when it comes to your door. this is the start of my 2003 Toyota 4runner SR5 2WD V8 Build thread.
here ya go
When u receive the package it is small but has some good weight to it. here it is unboxing. sorry only 2 pics per post.

 

[4Runner8]

here is more of unboxing and taking out the spacers. the black ones are the rear. sorry some pics not uploading bu the black spacers are 7 inches wide

 

[4Runner8]

sorry i will get more pics later. this is the ront coil spacer 2 inches but with the top plate which is on the left it will give 3 inches of lift

 

[4Runner8]

it came with about 3 or 4 pages of directions so that is really nice. even one with pictures!!:biggrin2:

 

[4Runner8]

rear coil spacers they will provide 1.5" lift and are 7 inches wide as stated before this is the picture

Front spacers up close with top spacer and bolts

Hopefully this helps some ppl in deciding on the lift kit they want. i havent had a chance to install yet. ive been busy so it will probably be a good 2 weeks but i will get pics up as soon as possible. sure wish i had someone to make my desicion easier but i am really glad i got it and cant wait to install!! also ill get .5" more lift in front instead of daystar which i considered before.

Looks good, nice quality stuff... I can't wait to see some pics. I like the look of a lifted, cladded 4th gen.

If you are going to DIY it read this thread. It's a long one but it plus the supplied directions should help you avoid some of the more common problems when installing....


Good luck!

:cheers:

It's really an easy job, especially if you don't have XREAS. The 4Runner will look like it should once it's on there.

getting it installed wednesday and im so pumped!!! as u might have read i ordered a hunter black bumper guard to mount lights onto so that should be here sometime this week possibly next week but here it is anyways. should be simple enough just a bolt on.

and then i got the ORU weld on light tabs

hmmm whats next oh yea pics when i get the lift installed, then pics when i get the bumper installed, then pics when i get the light tabs welded on, then order some lights(yall help me i think im gonna get hella 500ff's cause the price, open to suggestions)
then after lights and pics after install of those, what i am really excited for are sliders!! my runner was a stocker but in the next month in a half she will change a lot for the good and i cant wait!! the sliders will most likely be some stubbs at http://www.stubbswelding.com/rocksliders.htm

the ones for $290 are all i need and then some

get a good look at my sig pic now cause it'll be different i can tell you that! and bad a$$!! :boxer::biggrin2:

I'm jealous. :spider: So where did you get those $1 McDonald coupons?

 

[4Runner8]

[MikesToy]

Where did you stick the Toytec sticker?

 

[4Runner8]

came in the box pretty sure all the kits come with em. pretty cool i think

 

[haddix]

Im pretty sure he is asking where you put the sticker on your 4runner..

 

[4Runner8]

[4Runner8]

lift installed!!!arty:

love the ride quality almost exact to stock! Toytec Rules!!

ONly problem was that my spring compressor was barely able to compress my spring enough to get the big spacer in but other than that it went swell! very happy with results. now for some 33's and spidertrax too bad i just got the grabbers oh well next tire will definitly be 33"
