Post your LIFTED pix here!

Last week I bought my wife an SR5 with Navi/3rd row. Installed the Toytec 3" Bilstein lift, Cooper 255's, FN Fx Pro's (matte bronze). I went to Dustin's shop (FN Wheels) but missed him...a few hours later, he delivered the wheels to me...awesome customer service! I drove it less than 100 miles stock, but the 5100's and eibach combo are a night and day difference. Still very cush ride, but most of the slop is gone. No comparison to the king pintops on my 2012 Power Wagon, but this will be a perfect daily driver/desert rig for the family. I sold our 2015 Outback Limited 2.5 for the 4runner. The only thing I will miss is drivers seat memory, adaptive cruise, and auto-headlights. As far as the tires go, no rubbing (i removed the front mudflap) and they aren't any louder than bfg ko2s. The pictures show the front higher than rear, but it's not. This forum has been very helpful...thanks fellas.

Finally someone with the FN Fx Pros in Bronze on Super White! Looks awesome! Now I know what wheels I'll be buying when mine is paid off.
 
Nice T4R brother! I just bought a bone stock 15' silver TE with less than 600 miles on it and was looking for pics with your setup. 3" suspension with 285s = Perfection. Also, I like seeing them clean but even better when they're dirty! How much trimming was done to clear the tires? Body mount chop?


Hey Bud,

Thanks for the kind comments and congrats on the 4Runner. You'll love it. I did not have to do the body mount. I did remove the front mud flaps, trimmed the front of the fenders and moved the inner fender forward. ZERO rubbing!! Enjoy!!
 
Very nice looking truck! Did you Plasti dip your roof rails and front bumper or did you vinyl your bumper? Or is that a TRD front bumper?

Thanks. In this picture both the roof rails and front valence were plasti-dipped. I have since swapped to a K9 full-length roof rack and the the front and rear valences have been painted by a paint shop rather than using plasti-dip. Only thing still plasti-dip is the emblems on my truck

Howsit bro! Nate from @freedomedia I recently bought a stock silver 15' TE and looking forward to building it after seeing your rig. I'm still having a hard time letting go my Tacoma though. :sobbing: I may need to convince my wife to sell her Mazda Tribute so we can keep both!

Oh man that Tacoma is Too Sweeeeeeeeeet! That is my dream to have both the 4Runner and a Tacoma. My wife is on board to get a Tacoma as her daily driver but we gotta sell our car and find a the right Taco to build

I recently test drove the 16' Taco and not sure how they're claiming it has more HP than the 4.0L engine that's in my gen. You really have to floor it to get it up to speed, especially uphill. Also seems a lot of problems have surfaced with them which has swayed me to keep mine as well. Quite a few guys on TacomaWorld have recommended for me to wait till the 17' or so that way Toyota can iron out the issues associated with the current gen. That's a bummer because I really like the remodel aesthetics. Plus they make the TRD OffRoad in the DCLB.
 
Just finished my install yesterday, snapped a quick pic. More to come soon. Off to get tinted this weekend & roof rack delete. BIG thanks to Chas Moore @ Total Automotive Performance for hookin it up with the parts, best deals I've found BY FAR!

Hey Orange County guys. Where did you guys get your lifts done. I'm on a budget and looking for an OC shop.
Thanks

Highly suggest Current Customs/SXS Industries (same building) out of Stanton, CA. If anyone isn't familiar with the area, it is about 15 minutes north of Huntington Beach.

Really great team over there and they were very willing to work with me. If anyone is looking for work, feel free to message me and I can get you a quote or link you up with the right guy over there!

Looks so good. The wheel setup looks super wide for some reason, but a good wide:hatsoff:

Nice rig bro, Are you running wheel spacers?

Right on thanks for the info! I'm leaning toward 285/70 BFG KM2s on 17x9 ProComp Vertigo wheels. I did a Photoshop render with your truck. What you think?

 


Finally pulled the trigger on buying a 2016 runner early this year and couldn't be happier with it. Got the lift done and new shoes as well. Can't wait to do my next mod already haha.
