Thinking of getting my 2021 4Runner Limited Lifted

Hi Everyone!

I was thinking of having a body lift kit (leveling) installed with 3-inches in the front and 1-inch in the rear for a 2021 4Runner Limited Nightshade. I hardly do any 4wheeling anymore but was thinking of getting it done mainly for aesthetics. Does that affect the ride much? My previous 4Runner was 2012 SR5 and already had a 3.5" leveling kit and larger tires when I bought it and I noticed a lot more wind & road noise. A person at the shop that had lifted my last 4Runner said that he wouldn't really do anything to my 4Runner but it's up to me. My wife didn't care for that noise much but I like the look so I'm trying to keep us both happy. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

I wouldn’t bother. Put some 17” rims on it with some nice 265-70-17 AT tires and call it good.

The only benefit to a lift is “slightly “ better ground clearance. If you don’t drive off road the cons out weigh the benefits.

 

Do it then do some 4wheeling.
