    Then long travel is the opposite of what you want. The increased track width and track width difference between front and rear will make your job a PITA.

    If you're worried about hitting curbs a lot, I'd advise you pick up a set of Total Chaos spindle gussets, weld those on, and then tack weld your alignment cams in place.

    you can air down to like 25 psi too to soften the blow.

    If you pull over 400 times a night, im pretty sure youll become accustomed to the extra width.

    Are placing those signs time sensitive? hitting a curb at 25 is pretty fast, slow down before you pull over

    anyone got any good info on LT for 90 2nd Gen 4runner....i.e. tips, products, manufacturers, if the geometry is the same from different years and what is interchangeable with other toyota trucks??? I've been doing a lot of research and haven't found a whole lot on the market except for Total Chaos... just wondering if anyone has built one and what it took to do it....If I can't find anymore info I will just have to build one myself :D

    there are a few guy on DR that have 4runners that are LT but I think they all are running the TC kits. I don't think there is one person here on TW with a LT 4runner or SUV so may be the wrong crowd to ask :notsure:

    Hit up dirty dangler (adam) he is on his third LT runner I believe. He has an older one, 86-87 now but his last was a 90's and one before that was newer. His have been beasts! Also try ultimate yota forum, a lot of runner guys on there.

    what are the typical drive shaft alterations that need to be done to a 4door short bed for rear LT?
