You will get body roll but if you give it a week you will notice it only rolls like an inch and then it stops. When I first took mine off I was leary, but after a couple weeks I didn't notice. I take corners hard and everything without issue and you have way better handling shocks than me. I find the ride smoother and more controlled. And off road the difference is huge! No bar connecting the front A arms together making it so they can react completely separate of each other really helps with handling.
What did you do with your 4runner today?

I can feel your pain. I had four 275/70/18s sitting in my car for three days. That doesn't sound so bad but it's been another 3 days and the hot rubber smell still isn't out of my truck yet.

Started to disassemble and bleed my ICON 2.5 Extended Travel Coilovers. Got one disassembled except for internals.
The second one wasn't as easy as the first.
A couple broken tools and bent spanner wrench later and now it's soaking in penetrating oil overnight to try again in the morning.
Ordered King 14" 700 lb springs for them as well instead of reusing the ICON 650 lb springs. The blue should look sweet.
Also ordered EBC Brake Rotors and looking into either painting or buying new calipers and SS brake lines.

Nice, Mine came out good. I used the $20 duplicolor caliper paint in silver from amazon. Its self leveling and very easy to use. took about 20 min to do the caliper. The paint holds up. Ive done my last calipers, and they withstood about 2 years of constant sand, salt, road, offroad and abuse and never chipped or faded. I like the silver because it keeps them looking new and clean. just my opinion.
