I'm just saying they are really short wheelbase and light vehicles that tend to bounce around a lot more than regular cars and trucks. I've had mostly regular cab pickups and the old 2 door 4Runners and you can even feel the harshness in those vehicles with the short wheelbase and stiff suspension. If you can find one lifted with 33's to test drive, that would really let you know if it will bother you or not. I had a soft top on my old 87 4Runner that I used all summer and it was great, but the weight reduction of removing the hardtop made it bounce around even more. Putting the hardtop back on for the winter made a huge difference in noise and road manners.
ya its a 4 door but the one softtop i drove around for a little while had a small lift with 33's on it so thats what i am gonna base it off of thanks for the heads up
