Toyota FJ lift kit? Donahoe?

[fjcrew-sir]

So i've been looking at a few lift kits for my FJ cruiser and i've been having a hard time deciding which to go with. First question is, do i need new upper control arms or can i use my stock arms and just replace the front coils and rear springs? Is there a downside to using stock control arms? Second, anyone know what happened to donahoe racing? heard something about child molesting and jail time? I really wanted the donahoe lift kit but if they are gone, what is a good alternative?

I think Icon sells the old donahoe stuff now.

Donahoe Racing just changed names to Icon since Donahoe is in Jail for Child porn. Still the same company. You can use the stock arms. The upgraded upper control arm will be stronger and will give you an extra inch of travel if you buy the extended coilovers. If you want Icons then call Todd at Lancer Auto in SLC. They are a dealer.

The newer 4Runners are very similar to the FJ Cruiser. That being said, this might help you.-
