Yeah you are right on Backspace...

Your stock wheels are probably between 4.5 and 5 inches...which means the wheels sit closer in. As you start to decrease backspacing they stick out more and are more likely to rub the wheel well.

A body lift, especially the 1", is not a hard install. All you really need are some sockets, a block of wood, and a jack.

I don't know how bad your 4runner is sagging in the rear (like many are) but if you spend any money on lift you might want to put a small spacer back there to level it out.
