I've got a stock 97' 4runner 4x standard tranny 4cyl. and I'm wantin' to put 33" BFG MT's. Is a 2" bl necessary? :dunno:Also thinkin' bout an e-lock for the rear. 8)

i know that with my 86 runner i had to put a 1" bodylift in order to clear, but i went with 3" anyways , but i dun know bout 3rd gens

I dont know about the newer Runners but I would recommend cranking the T-bars, getting ball joint spacers and for the rear get like a 2" coilspacer....im sure youll have enough room for 33's Im not a big fan of BL's I may get one but it will only be a 2" at the most...I dont like the frame popping out of under me

sorry swamp but his is coil up front. no tbar cranking. 2" body and there will be ample room. we stuffed 32's in our 97 runner

  Well I bought my 3" revtek susp. lift.It will be here in a couple'a days.I'm workin' on a wish list and its startin'to come together.Next on the list is 33x12.5/15 BFG MT's mounted on 15x8 Rock Crawlers.The list also includes a factory e-locker,some kind of body armor,and some cosmetic stuff like clear tail lights and tinted front windows.Under the hood,K&N intake and maybe a mod chip. Ill try and get soe before and after pic during the process!!!

I dont know what type of wheeling your into but if you like to do mud and water I would not reccomend the KNN cause since its open filter if any water gets close to it it will suck it in and hydrolock your engine...I saw this happend to a Ranger Edge out on the Den where we wheel.

I got a odd-job cone filter from Autozone and i went bogging the last 3 days straight, and no probs with me maybe the new gens are diff

[SWAMPER]

I dont know but its an open filter that the only reason that i havent gotten one for Swamper

[Fireimp141]

It seems to be  doing fine for me

[SWAMPER]

BITE ME!!!!

Don't do a Body Lift...Get some Daystar pucks and block the rear.

[Fireimp141]

Id rather do BL than block it, but thats just what i think
