Topic: Suggestions on 97 runner limited

[GONZO97]

Hey guys recently went to mirror lake and was dissappointed with how my rig performed but then again it is still stock besides my 3 inch lift. if interested there are pics in the trail reports section. but anyways i was wondering if there are any suggestions that you guys could share with me to get more performance out of my runner. Keep in mind i have IFS and its automatic. All suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Im ready to start this project and make my runner a lot more beastly. thanks in advance -christian

E-Locker front and rear. Done.

already have the e-locker on the rear anything else maybe gearing? lifts anything?

[bigarms23]

4inch procomp stage 2 lift kits 35s 488 gears than youll be happier

[axled89]

a blown hemi would be pretty cool.

Does anyone know if that pro comp lift will even fit my truck? it seems like its impossible to find lifts that fit my truck since it is IFS

[bigarms23]

sorry about that i meant fabtech and through 4wheelparts your looking at 803.00to 1400.00

[GONZO97 [OP]]

yeah thats the problem is how none of the lifts fit and fabtech is too expensive. i already have a 3" OME lift and it gives me good clearance but not enough for what im looking for. My brother just recently got a 86 toyota pickup and it has a four inch lift and it looks as if his truck just towers over mine and i dont understand why it looks so much more beastly. My truck does really well on the trails for having IFS but im looking for that next step. And does anyone know where i can pick up some 4.88s for a good price?

[bigarms23]

for the gear go with randys ring and pinion good warrenties as well

maybe get a trail rig....

Get Marlin's A340F adapter and throw another case in it

[GONZO97 [OP]]

ive almost decided to just stop trying to make the 97 into a craawler and just use it as my daily driver and then buy a first gen runner as my toy. but im still doing research and trying to come up with the $ as well.

[LilGonzo86]

that sound like a great idea

[GONZO97 [OP]]

thats what i was thinking

[GONZO97 [OP]]

i was thnking like posibly a 86 runne i love the way those look and i think it would be much easier to work on and to make into a trail rig then the 97 limited that i have now.
