    Just did the same lift to my 2002 over the weekend and a 1998 a couple months ago. Can't believe your rear shocks came off so easy. Had to take a sawzall to both of mine. Looks and drives awesome, nothing better than the reliablity and simplicity of a 3rd gen 4runner. Keep the mods coming, need more ideas.

    Awesome. I’m doing the same exact lift and springs, I’ve been worried about the fronts being too stiff, good to hear you like them. And thanks for showing me that coil over disassembly trick, I’ll have to use that. 100% recommend getting a diff drop in the front. Even when they settle, the angle will be too much, I’ve head 1 too many stories. Also if you stuck with the stock sway bar end links, they won’t be long enough, most people move stock front sways to the rear and second gen 4Runner rear sways to the front.

    20" wheels with 33" tires doesn't give you much sidewall for off-roading. If you lower the air pressure for better ride and grip off-road, you can potentially damage the rims on the rocks. My preference is a 16" or 17" wheel with 33" tires. Definitely going to have some tire rubbing with 12" width wheels and tires.

    Austin, I love it!! The wheels you picked are the coolest looking I've ever seen. That was the second IFS lift kit installation that I've seen. Devin's Dura Max was the first one. I never heard of a PANHARD in my life. I love to learn new things and thanks for that. All I know is that IFS lift kits are complex, When I was doing what you are, There was no Toyota IFS kits made yet. 86 was the first year for the IFS trucks and 88 was when LIFT kits came out. Thanks for always having cool content. Your channel ROCKS!
