Here's my latest 4Runner, a 1996 with a 3" Rough Country suspension lift and a 2" Toytec body lift. I recently purchased a SASd 3rd gen, so stay tuned for videos on that one!
That's an Awesome 4Runner I have a 1995 I wish mine looked that good
Older 4-Runners so much better than the new ones. Had a 95 and it was awesome. Wish I had never bought my 5th gen Trail Premium 4-Runner, nothing but junk!
Beautiful man. Thanks for doing this.
Nice that's sick dude.
hello I only use the lift or warm kit to modify something else to install the tires 35

That's my truck after I built it just like yours
I was the last owner of this 4Runner. I totaled it...😢
I saw it on Craigslist after you totaled it. Had a couple of texts with you about buying it back, haha :)
Oh yeah that’s right!! Dude I still tear up thinking about this thing
bad ass 4Runner
Dude I have the same tires on my 92
Quick question if I can get a hold of you. So I have been reading that the 96 model is missing 2 of the body mounts that the other 3rd gen models have did you install the aftermarket mounts or did you install with what you had? and If so did you have any problems?
Had a question? Since your running 2" bl did you have to make any adjustments to your shifters? I justed in installed 2" bl and feels like the slop on my shifters
With the addition 2inch body lift, did u have any stretching issue with brake lines, radiator hoses, anything like that??? And did the body lift leave a gap between your bumpers and body??? Thanks!
Hey there. What year is the jeep bumper you installed?
That thing is sweet.
Good truck
Nice truck. Curious how those tires worked out with those factory rims. If I remember the factory rims are only 8" wide. I'd think those tires are pretty wide for that rim. Just curious how that worked out for you. I'm down south of Springfield.
Hoodlm13b Thanks. I've done this quite a few times without any issues. I've also heard people say you can't run over side tires on stock width wheels but like I said, I've done it many times and never had an issue.
Cole Russum good to know that someone has done this without losing the beed. I hate to buy new rims for larger tires.
Just bought a 2000 4runner for 3k with 188k miles. TB replaced at 176k. How did i do? Lol
HKS592 I just bought a 98 4Runner with 175k for $400 haha 😂 with brand new tires. But I had to box the frame cause rust
I have the exact same roof basket and a 2016 4runner, how do u mount the LED light bar to the roof basket??? Did you have to make your own bracket to mount the light bar??
Super cool 😎
@Cole Russum can you share the roof basket link? I have a 99 and would love to have the same basket. Thanks and very nice ride btw!!
i have a 94 4runner and was wondering if you had any suggestions on lifts for it ?
I have a similar setup on my 99
How has the Rough Country lift held up so far. I got a lot of friends that got them for their jeeps and they were very unhappy.
Wondering too for light off road and daily driving
4runner or xj Cherokee? I was ready to buy an xj but I'm liking the 4runner.
how did you mount the light bar to the roof rack?
You said those were the stock rims, so what size width were the 35's? I've been trying to see how big i could go with the stock 16x7's.
Russell Kirkpatrick if there stock rims on the runner like he said there most likely 10.5 width on them and tires are probably 12.5 width
Any major rubbing on 5” lift with 35s ?
Im getting a 3" suspension lift and 2" body lift aswell... Im trying to decide on 33's or 35's cuz i would like to save the money with 33's but idk if it would look weird?
Aidan Painter If you're only going 33s then forget about the 2" body lift. Only need 3" for 33s.
can you please tell me where you got the bumper and what year it's from?
does it work with 315/75r16?
After you did the lift, do you have any issues with rubbing and was there any issue with the differential? And did you have to get longer brake lines? I have a 99 3.4 and I want to do all of this to it. And what size are the tires? Thanks
The tires rub on the front when your wheels are fully turned a little. But that can be fixed with a small amount of trimming some plastic in the wheel well. (Tires are 315/75R16 or 35x12.5x16) no problems with the differential. Extended brake lines are an option when lifting your vehicle but with a 3" suspension, by no means to you need to add extended brake lines.
Can I put 35s on my 99 with a 2.5 Daystar lift?
@@kikosmith2088 I highly doubt it, ur gnna be rubbing insanely. Possibly 33's and still have to trim, you can do it with a 3in spacer or suspension lift in the front and 2 in the rear, you may have to do very light trimming like this. But 35's forget it just wont work.
Its nice
How much did you sell it for !?!?!?!
Nice!
Like around how much would you spend in lifting it to look that height and to buy those tires and rims
The rough country suspension lift is 250$ and a 2" body lift is about 200$, so around 450$ for 5" in total
The Tires were probably around 200-225$ per tire and the rims were stock so 0$
Noel Painter do you know how many inches you have to lift it in order to fit just 33inch tires?
lerodriguez10 3” suspension lift
U said the same exact same time when u sold the white 97 4runner
35s with stock rims? You must have spacers right ?
how did you do the wiring for the led light bar
Is the front sway bar disconnected @ 1:08
I have the same lift setup exactly on a 98 and im torn between trying to fit 35s or just going with 295 70 17? what do you think? Awesome 4Runner by the way
In my experience, 35s fit nicely with this lift. They rub when you're turning fully, but not a lot. Any rubbing can be fixed with very minor cutting of plastic in the wheel wells. I also had 1.5" wheel spacers, which are necessary to fit 33 or 35" tires on the front. Without wheel spacers, the tires will rub on the UCA.
Thanks for the reply I have decided not to go 35s, do you think 33x12.50 would rub? The 295 70 17s are a good fit cuz they equal out to an 11.60 but i can get a better deal on the 33x12.50s thanks again
i currently own this 4runner. i bought it off of they guy that bought it from you and i was wondering if you remember what rack that was and what size light bar was that
Nice. What'd you pay for it? The roof rack and light bar were both off of eBay. Light bar is 36". I still have it if you want to buy it in Missouri.
+Cole Russum i got it for 3000 and does it work and whats your price
Looking to buy a 99 in the next few months and spend some time moding it. going to be our road trip and light off road truck. going to be pulling a 2 person travel trailer. Any recommendations on what i should do as far as lift and pulling weight?
The lift depends on how much money you want to spend. You can get a Rough Country 3" suspension lift for $250 which is what I had on this. It's a good lift kit, I've never had any problems with them. You can get a nice kit from Toytec if you want to spend a little more money.
+Cole Russum that lift or any lift really shouldn't cause any issues with pulling a trailer tho right. 3" and 33s probably
+lee dove Nope, shouldn't be an issue.
+Cole Russum thanks
+Cole Russum yes it should
Was ur steering wheel installed upside down?
Hey man. How many miles u got in ur car bro
Did you change your gearing? What ratio?
how do you feel about Chinese light bars?
How good and reliable are the 1996 2wd ones?
I have a '96 2wd. She's going strong with 248,000 miles. No issues. I bought her for $2100 and installed a new radiator, plugs, ignition coils, master cylinder, rotors and upgraded the pads. I've done very minimum on the interior but installed a Kenwood receiver with BlueTooth and upgraded all of the speakers. I will eventually install a few subs, crossover and amp to push it. Next up for her is a 3" suspension lift, 3" body on some 33's for a mean stance. Last things will be a FlowMaster exhaust and a royal blue coat of Rhino Liner for the exterior paint.
What exactly is that roof rack called? Looking to buy one like that.

Did you use wheel spacers?
Is a body lift the same as a spacer lift in between the shock and the arm
I'm not sure what you mean.
No
What part of Missouri do you live in man? I'm in Columbia
H. Grant Gould I'm in Columbia as well.
lol 'if' you wheel, hows that body lift treating you 6 yrs later 😅😅😅😅😅
👍
what size are the tires?
How thick are your wheel spacers?
about as thick as a banana.
thats a pretty thick banana
Should of bought 33s.....
Were you on stock gears on this 4Runner??
Charles McCarthy Jr probably Toyota's come with 4 10 gears and the 5vze or 3.5 that comes in it has plenty of power.
Gabe Forney some 3rd gens had 4.10s, not all.
Yes, this one had stock gears and it did just fine.
True they didn't but the majority of Toyota's do
Don't sell it.
Do you live in canada? Can you lift my 4 runner for me?
Iceboss no and no
mooooooo
looks fragile like something is gonna break as soon as you take it offroad.
Is it hard to install the 3" spacers?
