Thanks for the info. I plan on putting 861 coils in the rear for a full 5" lift, as I pack a lot of gear which hopefully will bring it down to 4" at ride height. 881 coils in the front. I'll get a build thread up and running once parts start trickling in.
It's a 96, v6, r diff lock, manual 5 speed. Bone stock. Had a pickup before which I really liked, but the shorter wheelbase on the 4Runner is going to be great. This will be my weekend camping 4x4 rig.
Did you get your lift online? I've been quoted 1150 for all the parts locally. I've read the eibach combo is also good, I just couldn't find one. I will also be adding a diff drop. Did you put in a pan hard drop in yours?
Good lookin truck!
Just snagged myself a 96 4Runner, am ordering a lift shortly. What kind did you use? I'm leaning towards bilstein 5100s and ome coils. Seems like a good combo. Haven't been able to find much 2nd hand on the island, so most likely will be getting it all from west shore spring and 4x4. Build thread will be up when everything arrives.
Did you have to do much trimming to get the 35s on? What about re-gearing? I've read 4.10 gears are required to roll 35s. They sure look good.
