Re: 85 4Runner low lift high flex set up question

Yea, I have not ruled it out yet.  Does anyone have a measurement from the center of the front axle hub to the edge of the fender (deduct body lift if you have one), using the Marlin 4" trail flex lift?  This way I can jack it up in the garage and get a feel for how much higher it would be from where I am now.  This would be a great help   

Also, I thought it may be smart to use all of Marlins SAS stuff without the springs and have Alcan dial them in just right.  Unfortunately that does add exta cost.  I suspose if I didn't like the 4" Marlins someone would buy them off of me?

The weight is a 2,400lbs on the rear with 150lbs of gear and hardtop (less 60 lbs with Can-Back top).  The front weight is 2100 lbs (with 220lb driver).  So all total it gets heavy with fully loaded 4,500lbs!  Don't know how high the Marlins will hold it?

This is bro-in-law 86
Complete marlin 4" sas trail flex kit with 4" shackles
It was really high until we got some trails on it.
wonderful kit no squeeks, rattles



This mine- 89 d44's front n rear
Alcan springs
