The process of elevating the body of a fourth-generation (2003-2009) Toyota 4Runner SUV above its frame via modifications to the undercarriage is a common aftermarket adjustment. This typically involves replacing or supplementing factory suspension components to increase ground clearance and accommodate larger tires. This alteration enhances off-road capability and alters the vehicle’s stance.
Such modifications offer improvements in navigating uneven terrain, mitigating potential undercarriage damage during off-road excursions. Furthermore, an altered vehicle height can improve visibility. Historically, vehicle elevation modifications have been popular among off-road enthusiasts seeking enhanced performance and a customized aesthetic.
