With years of experience and extensive product testing, we have pieced together the best bang for your buck suspension kit. This kit is more then a lift, it will change your 4Runner’s ride quality from brake diving and body roll to a comfortable firmer ride using quality suspension components sourced using Bilstein 5100’s and ARB Old Man Emu coils. Pairing these parts together allows you to use a Bilstein 5100 and keep the cir-clip on the bottom so we get full up travel and down travel on the front shocks. This is an improved way of lifting your 4Runner as opposed to just using the 5100s and pre-loading a stock coil.Install time is less than 5 hours without upper control arms and 6 hours with upper control arms.UPPER CONTROL ARM OPTIONS:SPC: For those with lift kits or worn out upper control arms, SPC’s replacement for Toyota 4Runners is one of the more cost effective options on the market. Not only will these fix alignment issues, but also allow for more travel with aftermarket shocks.OLD MAN EMU: The OME Upper Control Arm will provide an increase between 2.5 and 3.5 degrees of caster and up to 1.5 degrees of negative camber increase (figures based on an approximate 50-mm or 2-in lift)DOBINSONS: Includes new ball joints (not assembled), OE style rubber frame bushings (installed), and washers Has 3 degrees of caster built-in, no adjustability or settings required Made from HSLA (High Strength Low Alloy) Steel, 5mm (0.2″) wall thickness, and powder-coated black Works for any lift height of 1.5″ or more. Any height less than that, a proper wheel alignment may not be able to be achieved Uses replaceable Japanese-made Sankei 555 ball joints, fully sealed for a maintenance-free lifeICON Billet upper control arms are a top end upper control arm that features both the delta joint as well as heim joints for precision adjusting for alignments and tire placement.ICON Delta Joint Upper Control Arms are one of the best selling upper control arms on the market for 4th gen Toyota 4Runners for their high angle ball joint that allows movement like a uniball.TOTAL CHAOS: HEIM/UNIBALL Lifting the front of a vehicle with a set of coilovers may be step one in gaining more off-road performance, however installing just an aftermarket shock can cause limitations without upgrading the Upper Control Arm too.Adding 2-3” of lift on the vehicle will compromise your Toyota’s factory alignment specs from lost caster. Our UCA’s are designed to add 3 degrees of caster – offering better straight line tracking, as well as improved high speed stability and cornering. TC UCA’s are designed to provide 1” of added droop wheel travel when they are installed with a pair of factory replacement ”extended travel” coil over shocks.TC upper arms add component durability and allow for individual parts to be replaced including heim joints and uniballs.
