Your video helped me a great deal. Good info on using Toyota bushings and loved the trick of using a bottle jack on the axle to help put the larger springs in.
Hey Bro, I just stumbled to your channel. Even tho, am a 3rd Gen 4runner owner I still watched your video and learned a lot. Much Appreciated. You earned my SUBSCRIPTION. THANKS
Did you replace the sway bar links because they were bad or longer links were required for the lift kit? I've watched the video a few times and if you mention it, I keep missing it.
It's a brand called Mountain. Went through several different cheaper brands that eventually broke down then I found these used by the pros at the shop. Extremely durable and versatile in tight spots that need torque. I provided a Amazon link in the video description.
At 3:53 what is the metal bracket that holds the break lines, shock and the sway bar. I need to know because mine broke and I can’t find anything like it for sale

Why the replacement rear sway bar link? Is it different length?
The boots on both sway bar links were split open. The replacements were the same length. I didn't mention or show that. Good question.
great job
Thanks ... glad you liked it!

From my recollection, the lift kit needed new longer links.
Helpful video, what brand of box end ratchet are you using?

What rims are those? I have the same ones on my FJ and want a spare but can't find the manufacturer anywhere.
Can't say. Customer's car.

Not quite certain what you're referring too. Suggest addressing problem with a replacement part from a salvage yard or dealership.
What tool were you using to get rust off? Thanks!
Rotary wire brush attached to a right angle portable drill.
what was that ratchet tool used to remove top nut on shock?
It's a Double Box Universal Spline Reversible Ratcheting Wrench. I provide a link the text description of this video.
Thanks
@@Ed-sh8jt you bet!
How many miles on that vehicle?
A little over 100K miles.
No spacers? THANK GOD!! 🤣
Did one on a Subaru with spacers. Had to partially drop the subframe to fit them in. And yes, it was a pain.
Idk. It might be me but the rear looks a bit higher
Could be. Springs may take awhile to settle in.
