    My kit came in yesterday and I'll unpack everything tonight . Also, are there any instructions that are supposed to be with this? Not that I need them, just curiousPXL_20250114_230508845.jpg PXL_20250114_230515111.jpg PXL_20250114_230529935.jpg

    Almost lost mine when my limit strap weld gave out. Extended barely feels
    clicked on 03-09 4Runner instructions and AP still gives this. DR doesn’t send instructions. Do yourself a solid and test fit each of your zirk fittings to the uca/lca holes before you start. Way Easier to tap before install. Good luck

    Nice build for sure . Surprised on how close your wheels/tires are to the knuckle. Hopefully I'll get the LT kit installed this weekend . Been waiting on the CV Boot kits to get delivered

    Been MIA for a while, added some hydrobumps a while back. Ran hard out at the SDORC Lost lizard poker fun run , 0 issues, lca and the rest of the kit is holding up great so far. Not worried about the kits build quality at all , I'm convinced this is just a AP kit lol

    I did notice the bushings that were included in this kit are really soft, tons of deflection in both of my front LCA pivots, I'll switch to total chaos/AP 60684 bushings in all pivot points and see if there is any difference.

    Ok so question. I'm planning to install everything this Sunday so I was just prefitting some stuff and I was looking at were the coilover/strut would bolt to on the LCA and well they just don't look right so I put a spare strut up to it and there's no way it's going to fit unless I take the misalignment spacers off and then it might fit . Not to mention the bolts for the coilover/struts won't even fit through the hole which is no big deal I can drill those. So am I missing something with the spacing for the LCA coilover mount

    Companies make different size misalignment spacers for different width mounts and bolt size.

    Sorry I figured it out . Apparently with LT the lower coilover/strut mount is 1-1/4 wide vs the stock LCA which is closer to 2" wide . ( Where it bolts through on the lower control arm)
