Alrighty so I'm replacing the rear differential housing on my 95 4Runner and I figured while I've got things somewhat dismantled, perhaps a lift kit? it already has 2" spacers but I'd to install a suspension lift on this puppy and get it ready for some good climbing. Any recommendations as of the best way to go about it would be awesome.

More details would help.

doesn't have a lot to do with a lift kit.

Why are you "Replacing the rear differential housing" and with what?

the previous owners for the 4Runner towed boats a few times is what I gather, the rear diff housing is rusting out - I picked up one in way better shape at a junkyard - So I"ll be removing alot of the rear suspension in the process I beleive in order to take out the old housing and put in the new one.

The diff housing? or do you mean the axle housing. I've never heard of a cast iron differential rusting out.
