    Oh drat. If only swapping the front and you’ve never done it before, I’d say 3 hours.

    Can you please tell me exactly what parts will get you a 3" lift this way? I am just curious what this costs compared to a full OME & Dakar swap. Also, did you do UCAs, shims, ECGS or Carrier Bearing?

    2 Post lift is not mine. My buddy just got it installed at his place up in Shrewsbury. I am in the process of building a new house and am getting some extra high ceilings in the garage so hope to get either a 2 post lift or just a floor scissor lift myself at some point.


    I did a little weird solution to get to this but pretty much this is it

    Toytect Eibach Coils which adds 1.6inch lift up front (they also have a spring package for all around front and rears.. i just needed fronts)
    https://bilsteinlifts.com/shop/toyo...-lifts/toytec-eibach-front-coil-lift-springs/

    then I got Bilstein 5100 shocks and set the front to the 2nd from the top notch which i think is a little above 1.5in lift in the front? equaling the front lift to a little over 3in with the coils
    https://bilsteinlifts.com/shop/toyo...ng-5100-rear-shocks-for-2010-2015-4runner-fj/

    in the rear i did Bilstein 5100 shocks set at stock height and left in my 3in spacer lift and stock springs

    Also got this to replace the existing bushings and strut mount. Was nice to get everything together and built before even touching the car so the install was fairly simple

    https://bilsteinlifts.com/shop/toyo...toyota-tacoma-05-15-4runner-fj-cruiser-03-16/


    This saved me a little money then going straight Toytec Coils. I think all together it was probably around $700. Rides great. I will probably get UCAs in the future.

    Some guys were talking about a meet up (not sure what time) at the 4Wheel Parts Grand Opening in Glen Burnie. Also there is a supposed to be a huge swap meet up in Pa but the weather might wash that out, or already has.

    The 4Wheel Parts opening (even though they have been open for a while) is tomorrow. The swap meet is, or was, or maybe is Sunday.
