How about two, 2.5" daystar spacers with a topout spacer? would that accelerate the life of my cv's? IMO, that would give my 4Runner the ultimate capability to crawl rocks, cross rivers, and blast through the sand (baja style).

a daystar spacer + topout = better cv angles and ultimate rock crawling ability?
i don't know what else to say to you except read the last 20 pages of this board, front to back. there are so many things wrong with what you just said

Not just one daystar spacer, but TWO daystar spacers PLUS a topout spacer. It's like a bracket lift without the brackets, right? Correct me if I'm wrong, but could I run some sweet 35" Thornbirds with that set-up? I would totally be the second biggest man on campus...behind Darren McFadden, that is. woo pig sooie!

I'm thinking about running tundra coils in back with limiting straps to reduce axle wrap. Should I upgrade my bumpstops and shocks too? I'm thinking about some rubicon express shocks my buddy is taking off his jeep wrangler. Anyone have pics of this setup?

If you are serious about running 2 per side though, DO NOT. Anyone on this board will say the same. Otherwise, toss logic out the window, and by all means, try 2 per side and watch what will happen.
Otherwise, if you are joking (which I hope you are), then stop while you are ahead. You're going to make people think you are serious.
Ha! Aaron be easy on him...

For tires, I'm running 225/30 R24 BFG's, but will be switching to Ground Hawg 44's in the coming days. I hope there's not too much trimming to do, but am having a buddy come over just in case. I'll post up pics Monday to show you how it looks! Does anyone know if there's a company out there that makes a jack for my rig...or a ladder? If so, pm me. Thanks!

I tried the Tundra's in the rear, but they didn't give me enough lift. So, I took 2 LC coils and welded them together end to end for ~10 of lift for the rear. Up front, I'm running Isuzu Trooper springs with 2.5" Daystar spacers, 3" Revtek spacers and 4 SS topouts per side. Right now, my CV's are almost vertical, so I'm working on a homemade 6" diff drop and will have it put it this weekend.

That's A TON of lift! I'm eager to see pics of the final product.
But, seriously, I'm jk. I thought I would post some nonsense in the morning to entertain everyone throughout the day.

Why stop at 2, why not go ahead and do 3 per side while you're at it . If you actually think 2 will work, I definitely want to see you do it.
If you are serious about running 2 per side though, DO NOT. Anyone on this board will say the same. Otherwise, toss logic out the window, and by all means, try 2 per side and watch what will happen.

This is getting stupid. Just don' run two spacers. If you do, then you will loose the 1 year warranty on the stock parts and the lifetime warranty on the TrekMaster shocks.
Tellico has good stuff, lower 2 is the same as we run out here. Also pictures never show you anything.
Let's just let this go, it is getting silly.
