I have a 3" lift on my 2000 4Runner and looking to replace the REAR links with these front links since they are longer than the OE rear. Any issues?

I don't see any issues other than not long enough. Its not a huge difference in length. everything else should match up.

I lifted my 2000 4runner 2 in and did not have any issues with these links. The sway bar will drop a little, but it won't affect anything.

i have a 3 inch lift on my 99 runner, tundra struts and lc coils, lc shocks and springs in the rear. you want to use 2nd gen 89-95 4runner rear end links on the rear of your vehicle. they are longer than the 3rd gen rear end links.

You don't have to they make extensions for the OE shock if you want to be on the safe side , however I did switch to a 3" lift when I installed mine.

Yes, you can use them with no problem. A lot of guys on the 4Runner forum do the same thing.

Yes, this is the correct kit for your truck. If your current front shocks are in good working condition there is no need to replace them. Adding 2.5" is still within the working range of most stock length shocks. However, if your shocks are worn or if you do much off-road driving, you may want to consider upgrading to a longer shock. Most shock manufacturer's offer a shock that is 2-3" longer to accommodate leveling kits. Since the installation of the leveling kit is the same as the installation of new shocks, it may be a good time to do it. We recommend the Bilstein 5100 series shocks. They are a good high-quality shock that works well with the leveling kit. Installing this leveling kit to the front of your truck will have no affect on the rear suspension. Please let us know if you have any further questions. Toll-free 1-877-731-7911.

not sure bro, what lift do yo u have on the truck. if you are talking about 4" that is body lift and some spring spacers then yes. Otherwise then you need to size what ever you have on right now and order accordingly. The length of this shock is equivalent to the stock one, so if you are using the stock then this should not be a problem.

I just installed these in my 03 4runner. It raised the front about 2inch. They have different setting you can put them on. So you can have it at the stock setting or crank it up. I have mine on the highest setting. Have a mechanic install them if you choose the highest setting because you use the stock coil to go over these shocks and it was a pain trying to compress the compress with a spring compressor. These shocks are really nice and they are a bit softer than the fab tech shocks I installed in the back. Hope this helped.

No. Simple install on the rear. No different than replacing any rear shocks. The front shocks are a little more work and require some special tools. I had mine installed by Pep Boys because I replaced the fronts so I could lift my truck and that requires a front end alignment afterwards.

I purchased new factory shocks and factory New Springs, when I used the kit. The kit worked fine. Nice lift of about 3" with all new suspension parts. Had it done professionally.

I have a 97 XJ 4.0 NP 232 with the chrsler 8.25 rear end, I used a front DS from an XJ without any issues. I would also suggest replacing your chain inside there while you have the transfer case apart. The whole job took me all of 3 hours to complete. Couldn't be happier so far.

It should be just fine. Rear sites all sit at the same level so I don't see any reason why yours would have issues. Hope this helps.

This set is for the pair. If you're only going to do one sway bar I would do your rear one. The Addco 1" sway bar is a great product. With only 2" of lift you don't really need extended sway bar links but if you want to then at least do the rears.

The ends of the Zone links are welded at an angle so they will line up the same as the stock offset links. I did not use any additional washers, I just replaced them using the stock mounting bolts and hardware.

Nope..no need to remove lower ball joints. No, they are not longer than oem struts, but can be used with the 4wd system and are different part numbers.

As others have replied, no lift over original factory springs. My 1998 had 16 years of fatigue so they had flattened out about 3", and could not handle a load. The new springs will look and feel like a lift kit was installed.

you need to order 2, one for each side , same link for either side, I trouble with the washers that came with these, they wouldn't fit the thread , so I just used the old ones worked fine, on the new links, made front end feel very solid on my 15 year old 4runner

I use this on my 2003 FLHTi ElectraGlide Standard... Works like a champ. Great lift for the money. Heavy lifter, pretty stable, nice stop, and solid locking feature. I like mine. Good luck

I added the Rancho shocks up front and the Fab Tech add a leaf 1.5. In the back for a 2-3 inch lift all around. We replaced the rear shocks with bilstien 4600. This is on my 2001 2WD Tacoma. After having done this, I would have put bilstien 5100 in the back. Otherwise everything works/looks nice!
