Talking I'm a member, but this aint no FJ

My 4runner buildup, front end nearly complete. Built by Chris @ AM suspensions in Riverside, CA. As you see it, will cycle 16" of travel. Is capable of 19-20" with no modifications to the kit, only need to cut out fender wells. They are 10" shocks as opposed to the normal 8" on any kit available. Lower arm is all uniball, upper is heim/uniball. Will all be powder coated (including the king coils) black in a few weeks. Kit is 4.5 over and uses a custom 4.5" lift spindle (its actually a 5 inch in the pic, will be changed out later).

Which means, most of you cant use this kit. 2wd only

Re: I'm a member, but this aint no FJ

Here is a pic from october, just got the front glass fenders done being prototyped by Fiberwerx's. Picking up my 4runner tonight, be the first time she's moved since november. Although it will look a little frankensteinish, I still have a bent rear axle and will be running stock rims and tires on the back til I get my new axle from toyota in about 3 weeks.

Re: I'm a member, but this aint no FJ

It will be available as a kit, but built to order at this point.

$4500 gets you everything you see cept shocks and secondary shock hoop. All hardware, dual limit straps, and brake lines would be included.

Re: I'm a member, but this aint no FJ

Nice welds right there... are you going to link
the two towers (over the engine), and do some
secondary flanges for the UCA tower mount at
the outer ends of the pivot bolt... Keep up with
the picts... Nice info !...

Re: I'm a member, but this aint no FJ

Not doing a engine cross brace to the towers. Need to address other things first and its very tight with my v8

Also not too concernd with bracing the outer ends of the pivot bolt. plenty of trucks have been huckin without issue yet on it that I have seen. But it is a good idea

anyway, here are more pics
