Nothing wrong with it, will work just like all other spacer lifts. But that is one expensive lift kit for spacers!!! you can find much cheaper.

ToyTec
Cornfed
Daystar
etc etc

So I am confused.. even with that article.. Are their 3 different types of lifts?

Suspension, Body and Spacers? the ones your listed and the one i posted is that a body lift or a suspension lift. I am so lost. Why cant this be computer related stuff...

 

[S p a r k y]

Lol yes three types.
1. Suspension lift, most expensive, but the best for offroading and doing what its made for!!
2. Spacer lift, best bang for buck, lifts the vehicle up by spacing the stock suspension up in the air more. This is what most people use, keeps stock ride quality.
3. Body lift, people use this for that little extra height. Not many use a body lift.

Spacer is best bang for buck. designed to raise the vehicle and can be used off road some. Not suggested for major off roading!!

The one you posted is a spacer lift. I merely suggested three other spacer lifts that are cheaper.

I agree with sparky, that is overpriced for a spacer lift. Not sure why they call it a hybrid lift either, it's a spacer lift. Period.

Most people go with Toytec or Daystar. That's what I would do as well.

Also that 4runner in the picture is NOT running 33s.

at that price, I rather go with bilstein 5100.

I had that exact kit on my Runner at the beginning. I didn't pay that price thought... I got it off CL but it was brand new.

Anyway, like stated about I did not go with the diff drop since the CV angle isn't too bad with 3" in the front. Plus with the diff drop I don't think that you can get full length skids, but don't quote me on that b/c I got my budbuilts after I went to a differnt suspension set up.

It worked great, no problems and the stock struts do not need to be taken apart like other spacer lifts. All in all, if you get get it cheaper than that go for it, but if that is the price, I advise to go with another 3/2 kit that is cheaper!
