    Did you add upper control arms to your lift? I’m told 2.5-3” of lift you really should add aftermarket arms to get the alignment back to spec

    This was a great video idea for the 4Runner community! I have had my eye on RC lift kit for a while. I am still researching what is the correct tire size and how the c4 low pro bumper will effect handling. I am also looking for the lightest winch possible.

    • @zonacamphike2904

      We really enjoy the lift and adding 285/70R-17 to the stock wheel really made a difference. We are in the hunt for a hidden bumper and winch. Glad our vid could help.

    This helps so much!! I watched a few videos, some remove the UCA's some use a hoist. I could not figure out how I would have room to remove the front struts 👌👌
    Also great trick for the back springs.
    Thanks for this
    I see you only used the torque wrench on the lugs, dis you bother anywhere else?
    Also the sway bar and the gap, not sure I understand why you could not close the gap?
    Thanks again

    Greetings, I've been trying to install the rough country 76631 lift kit for a long time, but 3 inches on a 4 runner 2019 2W, with the front struts, the rear shocks and the rear differential coil springs.. the rough country official site It does not have anything compatible with Toyota Runner 5th generation 2W, everything is for 4x4.
    Other sites on the market have the same 76631 kit parts and they claim to be compatible with 4RUNNER 2W and that they can be installed, I don't know what to think...

    @trailrunnah8886 Рік тому +2

    Just curious, what led you to choose the RC kit over all the others available for the 4Runner? And after 6 months, how are you still liking it? Did it align okay, and has the height settled any since then? Thanks!

    • @zonacamphike2904
      @zonacamphike2904  Рік тому +5

      I chose RC for two reasons, DIY install and price. After 6 months the 4Runner rides better in my opinion. I am still happy with my choice to install RC and would happily do it again. Toyota had to do the alignment du to the front sensor and there were no issues. The front has not really settled too much but I am glad it hasn’t. I plan to install a steel bumper and wench. This will add some significant weight thus adjusting the front end.

    Hey Nick, thank you for this! I’ve got the same 2020 4Runner and have been thinking about a 3-inch lift. Looking to also go to 285 70R/17 tires (from the stock 265’s). Definitely looks like the lift will accommodate the new tires without any bumper trimming. Your thoughts? Great video! 👍👍👍

      With 3” you should get the diff drop bracket and a rear brake line relocation kit. If you get the diff drop bracket though the bracket will rub/touch your skid plate if you are using a TRD plate. This is stuff they dont tell you online.
