Suspension Lift Question

harper7 said:
What kind of lift and what parts? You can get spacers for around $150 for the parts so that would be $1250 for about 3 hours of labor so no that does not sound right if it's just a spacer lift .

You did the right thing to ask but you should research and research some more. Here's a pretty complete list of FJ options and they will all or mostly all work on our 4Runners. We need to get a compilation like this on our site............... The NEW Complete Lift Listing and Comparison, they're all here! UPDATED! - Toyota FJ Cruiser Forum

Excellent link! Just wish i new where to begin.
 
I had my full suspension kit installed for just over $600(not spacers). Of course it wasn't done at a dealer, but a knowledgeable shop. $1400 is ridiculous for just a spacer install.

I'd love to do it myself but really don't have the knowledge nor the parts. Would hate to mess something up due to ignorance

Good news you live in CO. It's not rocket science and I'm sure there is a reputable shop in your city that knows how to replace struts, shocks, and replace springs.

I think toyteclifts.com does that stuff, little bit of a drive but you'll have it done right the first time.

Thanks. Very informative!
 
Finally got my toytec ultimate installed with the ucas. However now my tires are pointing inward. Will a new alignment fix that? Also hearing a loud humming noise and a little bit of pull. Hoping alignment will fix that also

Alignment is defo needed. You should be ok.
 
Went to get it aligned today. 200% better buttttttt. They can't get the camber right. Say everything is maxed and no luck with the camber. Now I have to find someone woth a 2013 with toytec ultimate to see how they fixed it! :(

Sounds like you missed the part where he said toytec ultimate AND light racing UCA's. Those should help bring it back to factory spec. Best of luck with the alignment
