Review on 🚙 Rough Country 3-inch Lift Kit for 1996-2002 4-Runner 4WD | N3 Shocks | Suspension System (Model: 77130) by Mikey Shook

I would give the lift itself 5 stars. Great product, great lift for the money. However, do not follow the provided installation instructions without first watching the Rough Country installation video. The video was much more helpful. I had to drill some holes in the spacers to line up the bolts on the strut, replace both ends of the tie rod for damage and try to remove it as shown in the instructions. I ended up buying a tie rod separator for about $15 which was 100 times easier and faster than the instructions said. You also do NOT have to remove the rear cross member on the 96 4runner to remove the spool. On the 4runner it is very difficult to access the rear upper shock bolts. It's not in the instructions or in the video. It ended up being an ALL day project but I love the elevator.
