Pic of our new OME lift

[doctorres112]

We finally got our suspension installed properly and am very happy w/ the results. Only have one pic for now, but will post more as we get out and about.

We are running the OME kit, here are the specs.

FRONT COILS -- 2701
FRONT SHOCKS -- 91005
REAR COILS -- 2721
REAR SHOCKS -- 61029
REAR STONE GARD -- 661
REAR TRIM PACKER -- 80PR10

I have an OME 3 in lift on my 5th gen 4 runner and have been pleased w/ it so far, so we opted for OME again on the 200 series. Next is some sort of hidden winch mount or front bumper w/ winch. Sliders as well are in the future.

Also, planning on getting rid of these fuel wheels and going back to stock. Impulse buy for sure, and after a few thousand miles I really regret the purchase. Live and learn...

Looks good. Would like a side profile shot if you get the chance at some point. I am interested in how much rake the 2721 springs give you.

I'll try and grab one tomorrow. A month ago, when this was first installed (long story) I was using the "light load" 2700 front springs. With that, there was almost a 1.5 inch height difference, w/ the rear being higher.

With me swapping out the 2700 for 2701s, it's now about 0.5 in difference. I suppose once the front settles it will increase, and even more so whenever we drop a winch up front.

I should also add that @Taco2Cruiser has been the most instrumental person in my 200 series getting this far. For those who don't know, Rob is a wealth of knowledge and selfless to say the least. He has talked me off the cliff on two occasions while working on my truck!

Thanks buddy!

Yep.
Rob is a good dude...willing to pick up the phone and help in real time.

I like it.

What else did you black out? Chrome in the front/back? Or just that strip on the side?

I’d love more photos.

Double post.

Here’s a photo on the flattest area I could find nearby.

That rake looks good to me. Right now I am running 2720's with a 10mm packer on top and am about level. I've been looking for 2721's on the used parts forum but I might just order a set and see what they do.

Thanks for posting

I might have an extra set of 2721s....long story. They are at a fellow members house, just have to pick them up. The springs have about 1,300 miles of highway only driving on them. Let me confirm he's not going to be needing them and I'll sell them to you. If I'm not mistaken, the new set I just bought was $162.50 + shipping. Not sure how much shipping would cost to get them to you, but we can figure that out. If they aren't needed, I'd sell them for $120.

If I may ask, what is it that you dislike about the Fuel wheels?

There's nothing wrong w/ them, they were just more of an impulse buy. Form over function sort of thing. The offset is a little extreme which did cause a bit of rubbing. Again, nothing that couldn't be solved by removing/altering the mud flaps.

All in all, I'm leaning toward getting my stock rims PC black and putting those back on.

Got it, thanks!

I'm in. No hurry, so however it turns out let me know.

Three questions:

1. The 2700-2721 setup gave you about 1.5 of rake, the 2701-2721 setup gives you about .5 of rake, are both of those measurements including the 10mm trim packers?

2. Anyone know the general specs for going 2701-2722?

3. Also, how much actual lift did you get from stock-2721 and stock-2700-2701 respectively?

I am trying to get a baseline on a bone stock 200.

According to my maths, this is what I think it looks like in real world numbers, not published:

+1" lift 2704+2720 +15mm rear packer = 0.1" rake
+1” lift 2704+2721 = 0.4” rake
+2" lift 2700+2720 = 0.5" rake
+2" lift 2700+2721= 1.5" rake
+3" lift 2702+2721= 0.5" rake
+3" lift 2702+2720 +15mm rear packer = 0.3" rake

No A-arms?
What exact tool did you use for the tie rod ends?
