Question lifting a 4Runner

Hey

I am 17 and have a 95 Toyota 4Runner. I love my car but think it would look cooler raised. Does ne1 have any suggestions to height, a place, or if I should even do this?

Thanks for any help

Re: lifting a 4Runner

I wouldn't exceed 2-3" in height. There are quite a few ways to lift your 4-runner, it really just depends on how much you want to spend. If you are just wanting to lift to make it look better, you may just want to get new wheels/tires that stick out a bit and will give your RUNNER an aggressive look. Good luck.

Re: Re: lifting a 4Runner

Does anyone else have any general information? Like a price range or maybe a suggestion on some good wheels that look cool and run smoothly?

Lifed 4-runner

Most 95 4-runner Came Stock With 31 Inch Tires The Next Real Size Up Are 33 Inch Tires These Will Rub Bad In The Front When Turning With No Lift!! The Cheapest Way To Lift The 4-runner And Then Run 33 Inch Tires Is A 2-3 Inch Body Lift As For A Suspension Lift The 4-runner Runs Coil Springs In The Rear The Lift Range From $700-1200 You Can Get 1 1/2-2 Inchs If From Adjusting Your Front Torsion Bars And Purchasing Lifted Rear Coil Springs And Then Run 32/12.50/15 Tires With 10 Inch Wide Wheels

Re: lifting a 4Runner

I am planning on lifting my 95' by means of torsion bars and lifted springs to 1.5" I was looking at KYB Monoshock ("lifted length" according to distributer) but am not clear as to what length(?) I should use for the coils and options on brands. Any info on coil spring to be used in general would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Re: lifting a 4Runner

Looking for a little feed back on doing a torsion bar lift on my 95' V6. Do a lot of camping in the Rockies and looking for something to take me a little further away from it all. After talking to my suspension mech, he recomended using a "kit" namely old man emu, rather than shocks from one and coils from another so you get all the odds and ends in one shot.
Also any warnings for a do it yourselfer?
