The lift height Vs lateral movement is not linear, so as you lift the truck, the axle moves laterally much more.

hey all, a newbie question here, about the PANHARD bracket, i got a 99 4 runner with 31" tires, and at some point, going to lift it 2" now, im all about doing things RIGHT, from what i can tell, doing the panhard bracket would be a good idea, but, should i take it to the dealer for the welding ? would a local shop know what to do ? if i took the write-up with me ? i have no means to do the welding myself, but want it done right the first time.
THANKX for any ideas, help or suggetions.
