newbie to this. NEED HELP

[spl4runner]

I have had my 2000 4runner limited for about a year now and i have really invested all my money into sound. but now i have done everything i have wanted to do with sound i am about to try something else. i wanna lift my 4runner up and put some bigger tires on. i dont really go mud ridin to much this is really for looksand maybe some mud every now and then. this is what i am looking to order friday and i would like to get some input because i really have no idea what i am doing or if this would even work.


i was looking at this to lift the body

1. The body lift link is not a body lift, its a suspension lift. Personally I dont like spacers, but if you're on a budget then go for it. Research spacer lifts to find all the pros and cons.

2. The tires are great, but if you are doing 95% on road driving, then be prepared for terrible handling, extreme noise and new tires every 12 months.

3. IMHO, the wheels are awfull. Sorry.

4. The suspension link is the wheel link again.

ha well everyone is gonna have their own opinion on the wheels.
i just fixed the 4th link. and yes i am on a budget so i guess my next question is in my situitation what would yall pick to do. i just wanna lift my truck up 2.5 or 3 inches and put bigger tires on. another question is how big of tires could i go befor they start to rub i really want these but dont think they will fit. i am open to all suggestions

I like those wheels.

the "body" lift is the exact same as the revtek suspension lift you posted. i'd go with the Daystar as it is cheaper and its basically the same thing. The rims look fine. what color is your vehicle? and i would not go with those tires if its gonna be on road alot.

get some tires like these

or some BFG M/T or A/T

So, let me get this straight, you just spent 1 year and mucho $$$$$ for sound system upgrades...NOW, you want some knobby mud tire that makes tons of noise?? So, if you get these tires, then you are basically throwing away all your hard effort and mucho $$$$$ that you spent on your sound system??

I would take it easy and consider other milder options.

here is a link to my car

and i do like these tires but they cost a lil bit more but would they fit with the Daystar lift

[spl4runner]

ha i really doubt i can hear ANY tires with my system up and it stays up most of the time

 

[spl4runner]

after reading a couple more threads on this forum i found these would this be a better kit for me?

toytec lift (or the OME coils) are better overall, but i think since its gonna be on the street mostly it will be fine doing the daystar..

and 265/75/16 will be your best pic since they are bigger then factory and cheaper.

here are pics w/ rides with daystar on

for tires, i personaly like the toyo open countrys... here is a picture of them

and i was wondering.. do u have the L7 in the 4runner now or the 18" Fi sub?


only bad thing about big subs are they hit a bit slow for me... thats why i went for 3 12s

 

[Clemsonfan15]

Nice amp. Is that a BTL or BL? What HU do you have?

 

[spl4runner]

right now i have the BTL in there. i thought the same way about larger subs untill i got the BTL it is loud as hell and i still have good sq. i have a set of rockford T1 componts up front and rockford T1 51/2 in the back and i am waiting on the AQ4x90 to come out to power my mids and highs

 

[Clemsonfan15]

Nice. I really want to sell my Rs and buy an 18" Q. Maybe soon.

 

[spl4runner]

yeah they sound damn good. i am thinking about getting another AQ2200 and linking them together for 4400 watts RMS and put a 18" DC soundlab lvl 5 on em

 

[Clemsonfan15]

I think getting another BTL and another 2200 would be louder. I'm not sure if you have the space for that big of a box though without interfering with your view.

Are you still on the stock alt and battery?

 

[spl4runner]

yeah it would be louder but i dont really have enough room for two 18"s and i kinda like just have one LOUD sub

 

[spl4runner]

Well i went with this kit and got the 906 coils it will be here wednesday should have it on by friday i will post befor and after pics

Your runner is going to look sick! How is the dynomat working out for you?

 

[spl4runner]

It's like night and day. after puttin it on the bass got alot louder and alot cleaner. i also did all my doors and it helped out with the sq with my mids and highs.
