probably - although 1/2 of the run has been reserved already.
if you miss this run, there will certainly be another!

Awesome! Been waiting on this. What is the max height (lift) you have made this for? Mines about 5" of lift, so this will be better than nothing but curious to what extent you designed this for.
Thx

I may be over-analyzing this, but my 4Runner has 3" lift springs in the rear and the centers of the ends of the panhard bar are just about 3" different in height. It certainly makes sense to raise the axle mount to level the bar back out, but it looks like that would get close to the frame/underside of the body. Does this create any type of interference that has to be accounted for?
Thanks!

Hey Doozi - I assume you're talking about overhead clearance of the raised bracket, yes?
On the 5th gen I used to model and prototype the bracket, I went as high as you can go with the factory bump stops and still clear the overhead crossmember at full compression on the driver's side rear. That gives us a 3.4" lift on the axle side of the panhard bar. (I also put another hole an inch below it for milder lifts) The 4th gen I had in the shop to verify fitment had the same architecture (which is terrific for this situation)
If you're running extended bump stops to limit your up travel (because of shock compressed length) you have even more overhead room!

Perfect! Thanks for the info! I have 3” bump stop drops so I’ll have luxurious clearance! LoL!
I’ll be ordering later this evening.

I already have a slightly longer aftermarket panhard bar to compensate for a slight lift, will your kits still work or will it be "too" corrected if I use both?

You certainly did! I've got 5 left from this batch, btw.
Never got a chance to ask but are we able to install the kits before getting them welded on or do they need to be welded on as part of the installation? I recall one of them looks like they could be bolted in place temporarily but the other looks like it needs to be welded before you can have the pan hard attached to it.

They're weld-on.

I pick them up on 8/3, if not before; will be shipping by 8/6 (if not before.)
Were you able to pick these up? How did they turn out?

Good! - except there was a quantity mix-up on a couple of my orders and I was only able to get the first 10!
Check it out (install photos also!)
