I have an 01 4Runner 4X4 and i'm fixing to purchase a 3 inch suspension from toytec. They have two lifts that appeal to me: the 3" 4Runner 4WD Lift Kit W/ Diff Drop and the OME 3" Lift 4Runner Coil Kit. Which one would be the better choice? If you have pictures of these lifts on a runner please post.

 

the one that includes a diff drop is just a spacer lift up front if i recall correctly. over time these will deteriorate, causing you to get new coils anyways. stock shocks are usable with extended coils, too. i would go with the 3" coil spring lift all around (359.99 i think) and buy the diff drop to ease the pain of the cvs

 

Would it be better to get the front and rear OME shocks as well or just keep the stock ones?

 

depends on how much you will wheel. if this is planned to be a road queen than your shocks won't suffer too bad. if you plan on wheeling a good amount it would be wise to go ahead and upgrade to better, extended shocks. you have tons of options, ome, bilstein, just look around
