Daystar Lift OR Revtec what do you guys think? 97 2wd 4runner Just looking for a little more clearence.

Revtek is much more advanced and higher quality but you should get some springs (downey or OME) for the rear, because the rear spacer that comes with the kit is kind of small and the stock rear springs suckkk.

It all depends on your preference. Either should work fine but the Daystars are probably a better choice. But take a look at Performance Products and the springs they have for your Runner. If it has that infamous rear-sag they have a spring kit to fix that if you have not already had the factory TSB done for the rear springs. I think your year Runner fits that TSB. But if you want a bit more clearance all around then go for the kit with all new springs front and rear. It will fix any rear-sag on your rig and make the ride / handling better as well. Hope this helps.

You may want to look at www.cornfedsuspension.com . Some of the guys on TTORA have had problems with the poly spacers compressing over time.

Yea thats why I say Revtec over Daystar, plus Revtek has two spacers for each side of the front end. This is supposed to help with geometry etc. Daystar is just a single poly spacer. anyhow goodluck --bill

Take a look at RANCHO,s new springs they give about 1.5" of lift and with a 1/2" spacer on top of the shock mount mine has about 2" over stock.I had a friend make a spacer simular to REVTEC,s but a little thicker.I think my truck rides better than with a REVTEC lift but I could be wrong.

You may also want to consider the fact that the stock 2wd springs are about an inch shorter than the 4wd ones to begin with. So if you installed say, a 2.5" spacer lift, you're only going to achieve 1.5" above a stock 4wd. It all just depends what your intentions are for getting more ground clearance, i.e. off-roading, that will determine which lift is suitable for your 'Runner. Good Luck.
