I’m looking into installing a 3.5-4” lift kit on my ‘94 Land Cruiser, and doing it on my own. What are some things I need to be aware of when installing a lift that size?

I’m not going to lie, the reason I want the 3.5-4” kit is because those are the ones I can find on Facebook marketplace.So a search and you'll find lots of threads on the subject. Do you need 3"-4", or do you just want it?. Once you go above 2.5" things get complicated and expensive.
There's about a zero percent chance your car will drive worth a s*** if that's how you're sourcing a 4" lift. Can you weld?I’m not going to lie, the reason I want the 3.5-4” kit is because those are the ones I can find on Facebook marketplace.
I wouldn't worry about what is currently available on FB marketplace, decide what you want/need and then go from there. IMO you need to answer these basic questions (to yourself).I’m not going to lie, the reason I want the 3.5-4” kit is because those are the ones I can find on Facebook marketplace.

In my mind, the better way to approach this is asking what size tire you want to run and what you plan on doing with the rig. If it's a mall crawler, that has a different set of priorities than a wheeling rig. Either way, @Nad Aitch outlines a pretty solid plan, though there are other options in a similar lift range. The eimkeith radius arm brackets are a really smart way to go IMHO. You fix the caster problems without using crappy offset poly bushings and for a wheeler, moving the axle forward a hair is just a bonus.I’m looking into installing a 3.5-4” lift kit on my ‘94 Land Cruiser, and doing it on my own.
