I understand that setup is not for hard-core wrangler style offroading, but can that setup handle mild offroading?

Can it handle sand dunes?

What is your concern about sand dunes?

$120 is waaay too much for a BL, check with 4crawler.com

And again, what do you mean by handling sand dunes?

1) Not breaking the new lift.

2) Worried about flipping over.

There are far worse things to drive through than sand dunes. You are more likely overheat the engine than break suspension parts. Don't worry about it. In fact, a suspension lift is a great bonus for sand because ground clearance is extremely important.

Suspension and terrain wont cause the vehicle to roll. The driver will. It is up to the drivers judgment as to whether or not he/she should attempt something and exactly how it should be done. For example. You will virtually never roll anything by driving directly up a dune, but if you try to drive across it sideways, then you are asking for trouble no matter what you're setup you have.
Do some research on sand dune driving techniques and you'll be fine.

Dude, sand dunes have never been a problem for our 3rd gen 4Runners. These are some pics back when mine was stock and had AT's on it. s701.photobucket.com/albums/ww20/shawnstcyr

I would not worry about it at all.

I would personally skip the BL.

Why is that, Sir? It's like $100 out the door.

You've selected a great kit for your vehicle. With the once inch body lift, there are manufactures out there that build after market bumpers ready to bolt up cleanly with a 1 inch body lift on it.. something to consider. Armorology to name one.
