About this kit

3-Inch Lift Kit with N3 Shocks, fitment-checked

Rough Country 77131 is a 3-inch lift kit for the 1996–2002 Toyota 4Runner in 2WD and 4WD form. The box holds a loaded front strut pair, a set of 3-inch rear coils, and an N3 rear shock pair. The included replacement front struts are not intended for trucks that left the factory with the upgraded OE front strut package.

This 3-inch lift kit for the 1996–2002 Toyota 4Runner 2WD/4WD covers Base, SR5, and Limited applications listed in the fitment section. Front height comes from a loaded strut pair, the rear rides on dedicated 3-inch coils, and an N3 shock pair handles rear damping with application-specific valving. The front strut assemblies supplied here should not be fitted to a 4Runner that came with the factory performance front strut. A downloadable Rough Country installation guide is available, so read through the steps and confirm your strut configuration before you order. Shipping weight: 81.0 lb.
