An aftermarket modification designed for a specific vehicle model, the 2005 Toyota 4Runner, alters the vehicle’s suspension to increase ground clearance and accommodate larger tires. This enhancement involves replacing or supplementing existing suspension components, such as springs, shocks, and control arms. The result is a raised vehicle ride height, offering improved off-road capability and a more aggressive aesthetic.
Implementing this suspension modification offers several advantages. Increased ground clearance allows the vehicle to navigate uneven terrain and obstacles more effectively. Larger tires, often installed in conjunction with the lift, further enhance traction and off-road performance. Aesthetically, the modification provides a more commanding presence. Historically, modifications of this type have been driven by both recreational off-road enthusiasts and individuals seeking enhanced vehicle utility.
