2nd gen 4runners lift guide
I did some research on what type of lift kit i wanted for my truck, and i rang into a lot of lifts, so i thought id post them, as a helpful guide for beginners
First off let me explain that you do not need a lift kit to fit 33x10.50 or 33x12.50. the 10.50 will fit with no rub at all, while the 12.50 will fit with some rub, backspacing will help take care of that rub
example:
Also you can do a body lift for Farly cheep
Example with 2" body lift
Old Man Emu lift kit options
Option (1)
2"-3" Lift (approx.)
Sdori 1.5" Ball Joint Spacers (1pair)
Sdori 2" Coil Spacers (pair)
OME N98 Front Shocks (each)
OME N71E Rear Shocks (each) FJ80 Shock
OME 901HD Coil Springs (each)
OME SD33 Steering Stabilizer
Total $638.65
Option (2)
1.5"-2" Lift (approx.)
Sdori 1.5" Ball Joint Spacers (1pair)
OME 901HD Coil Springs (each)
OME N98 Front Shocks (each)
OME N72F Rear Shocks (each)
Total $501.24
Option (3)
1.5"-2" Lift (approx.)
Sdori 1.5" Ball Joint Spacers (1pair)
Sdori 2" Coil Spacers (pair)
OME N98 Front Shocks (each)
OME N72FRear Shocks (each)
Total $454.72
Example of 2" OME lift
2" 4Crawler lift
1.5 BJ spacers and 2" coil spacers $189.00
1.5" BJ spacers and 80 Series Land cruiser coils
80 series land cruiser (1990-2008)
80 Series Land cruiser coils
*lift 3" * Also If you get them of a truck, they come one short sided one long, just the way they are, so try to get a pair of short sided, or longer sided, only about 1/4" difference
Example with of 1.5" BJ spacers and 80 Series Land cruiser coils
80 series land cruiser on 33x12.50
4-5" Rough Country lift $609
*Now this is meant for an 86-96 4wd IFS Pickup, however all you need to do is replace those blocks with 80 Series Land cruiser coils.*
4" Trail Master lift $1,642
*Notice it would have coil springs for the rear, not blocks*
4" Procomp lift $1,373
Example of 4" and 33x12.50
If their is any i forgot, or you think i should edit something let me know.

Pro Comp Stage II with 35 x 12.5's and slight to fender pinchweld's no cranking on torsion bars.
Also I got the kit for $950 delivered from 4wheelparts not trying to push there site but I did get the step up for cheaper through them all I did was tell them I seen it on sale on another web site but that they where a drop ship place and they matched the price. Just a little info to help save someone a few bucks.
Almost forgot rear coils are replaced with custom built heavy duty coils

Great post. This should be pinned at the top, or archived in the offroad enhancements.
One note though, my truck is stock height in the front end- 14" from fender to wheel lip. I relaxed the torsion bars to get better flex.

Just a few things..
Your first picture, those tires rubbed pretty bad on that truck. Should note that to really cut down on trimming, you wheel needs to be stock backspaced (or very close).
Option 1, 3-4" of lift? No. 1.5-2" tops. There is no way to get 4" out of just bj spacers without totaly throwing your front end out of whack.
Other then that, pretty good
p.s Love that the bracket lifted 4runner has those stupid chrome rims
