Thanks for all the compliments guy! Regarding the bumper thing.. I guess its illegal not to have a rear bumper but I've never been pulled over for it. It's also illegal to not run a front plate but I didn't with all 3 cars I've owned and never been pulled over for that either.

I did not buy new bushings, everything seemed to still be in great shape on my 4Runner. Gotta love states that don't rust cars!

Just do a 3". More clearance, Fo' Free! And those 32's will clear at full lock at stock height with the pinchweld poundin'!

I can fit 32's on my 4Runner without having any rub, even with the ass sag.

it depends on the offset of your rims...

mine rub like CRAZY... and thats even with a 1/2" T-bar crank...

oddly enough tho, they only rub on my mudflaps... they have effectively ripped the top portion of my mud flaps in half...

i was just on rogers site checking out his body lifts and it looks like it will cost 250 canadian shipped for a 3 inch. i was wondering if the steering spacer is mandatory. on rogers site he said it was optional and just extend the steering by drilling out the plastic pins in the rod/ and do you need to buy extensions for the gas tank filler and breather?

You need a steering extension, nothing to drill out on our trucks.

And the gas filler might need to be extended, mine leaks a little if I park with a full tank.. Just need a peice of pipe clamped to the rubber hose to extend it.
