Disclaimer: You will have to use the original rear lower shock bushings. Cancellations will be subject to a 15% restocking fee (waived if we cannot ship within the stated build time).
Bump stops worth checking: a 3-inch lift changes how much front travel is left before the factory bump stops make contact. Most owners never touch them at this height, but if you’re running larger tires or added front-end weight (winch, bumper), check bump stop contact after install and budget for extended or relocated bump stops if you’re bottoming out under hard compression.

Customer Reviews
4.75 ★4 reviewsDitched a bracket lift for this 3 inch lift kit
I had a six inch bracket lift and it rode horrible. My 95 4Runner was also really unstable on the highway. I took off that lift kit and installed this one and it rides way better. It's nice to drive again.

Solid kit
I am very happy with this kit. Came with everything I needed. Installation was quick as well. Approximately six hours by myself in my garage.

Rides good
Decent lift kit with quality parts. Front kit is billet aluminum. Bilstien shocks are always a good choice. Allowed me to turn my torsion bars down but still have good height. Installation was easy compared to other lifts.

Great lift
A subtle but noticeable lift kit. Easy to install and rides great. The only kit I've seen with a adjustable trac bar. Would recommend.
