I do have some trimming to do. They rub just slightly when I back out of a spot. I'll also be ordering the center caps this week too.

Sorry to quote so much but Im jealous about how much front clearence your front lift gets, I got mine back today with Radflo 2.5's and I dont get that much front clearence. Mine looks like an exaggerated form of the stock rake :/ I have to drop it off for two more days on Tuesday so they can finish setting up all the lights and wiring up the winch so I will have to ask if they can crank up the front coils anymore. I do have a shrockworks front bumper with a winch but the winch is synthetic line and I ordered 700 lb front coils so I would think I could at least get an even rake but who knows.

I had a lot of cutting and pushing to do to get that clearance. I had quite a bit of rubbing too :)
 
Oh, I misunderstood your statement. I thought when yous said clearance, you meant between the tires and fender. That's what I get for reading when I'm not fully awake :)
 
Any chance you can make a copy of that wood template? Or even better hammer me out some mesh using yours. For a reasonable fee of course. Lol.

I actually threw that wood template away. Wish I hadn't. I'd make one for ya, if you mailed me the mesh and grille :D
 
You're build thread is killin' me Terri! I've gone from wanting some simple spacers to the whole Blisten 5100 kit you have! Lol...my husband is gonna kill me when I seriously start asking him for one, haha. But I've been reading, and maybe you know better, is it around 100K that shocks need to be replaced? If so, that might be a good reason to look into the kit or one similar. I'm only at 64k, but 100 will come up quick!
 
Thanks, Kenzie! Yeah I never wanted a lift either.. or new wheels or tires. My husband just shakes his head (but in all reality, I know he loves driving it :) )The more time you spend on here the more you realize how nice it looks mod'ed. You see a 4runner stock and it really looks awkward being as low to the ground as it is.
I could actually go higher :)
 
Really?? That surprises me you never wanted to lift your truck! This forum is addicting though, I'll agree to that, it makes the Runner a really fun vehicle to own. I find myself on here ten times more than FB now, and that's bad! lol, but at least you learn stuff here and people don't think you're crazy for talking about your car so much, hahaha.

Your truck seems enormas (to me), lol! You're a monster truck girl at heart now huh, hehehe. =) But I know whatever you do, you'll make it look goooodd.

Opinions please...

I haven't put my sliders on because I'm debating a body lift. Thoughts?
I know when I put the Toytec lift on it made my tires look very small. I don't want a body lift to do this to my current wheels/tires.
Besides the UCA's in the near future, what other things might I have to consider with 1"?

just get bigger tires, problem solved lol and nothing else to deal with getting the 1" just be sure your radiator fan clears the fan shroud when you do the body lift. if it does rub all you have to do is trim the shroud a bit
