Hey guys, I've been looking for a lift and want to see what yall have to say about these three different lifts.

i've been looking at the
1. Bilstein 3" lift TTHA-CK-RCC-0309-75109
2. Toytec Ultimate UL-FJ3K
3. Boss Suspension TTBOSS-FJ3K

I want to set the lift at 2.5 in in till i can acquire the upper control arms. I would like to get the one that has the best offload ability.

Boss imho from your list. Can adjust the front to not worry about caster until you get uca's too.

Sent from the drivers seat of my 05 4runner.
 
Finally Getting My Lift Kit Installed!!!

I am so excited that I'm getting my Rough Country lift kit installed tomorrow morning by Lifted Life Customs. I know there is not much discussion about using the Rough Country lift kit from members here, but that is what I can afford. When I was discussing other lift kit options with the owner of the shop he informed me that he's installed many Rough Country kits and has had nothing but positive feedback from his customers. He informed me that there is no reason to break the bank on more expensive kits when the Rough Country will give me what I want and need. I'll post some before and after pictures this weekend. Can't wait to eliminate the rake look:banana:

My 4Runner:

I really like the tread design and ride now. The tread on these is really similar to the Duratracs.

05' 4Runner Sport V8
Trail Gear Sliders
3" Toytech spacer/coil lift
New style Big O AT 285-70-17 tires
Spidertrax wheel spacers

Do you like your toytec lift?
 
Replaced the worn out stock suspension the other day with 5100's all round, OME 883's up front on the lowest clip and Wheelers Offroad T12's in the rear. The T12 springs are a replacement for the Sway-Away 1.5" lift coils. Visually its a big improvement (no before photo sorry) but it still looks quite stock like which I'm happy with. I prefer the raked look and it retains that, so that's good when I'm loaded up. Hub to fender measurements are 22.5 and 24.5 inches.
The Bilstiens ride ok. They handle rough roads very well, but I'm undecided if I like the rear performance. I'm not sure the valving is appropriate yet....

Anyway, thought I'd throw up a pic in case someone is researching this combo for themselves.

New treads. P285/70/17 Wildlpeak AT3W. Only 500 miles on them but absolutely shocked at how quite they are. Love them so far.

Looks great! Rub? Taken them off-road yet?

I have those in 265/70 and have 5k on them. You'll love them! Wish they were offered in 255/75 or 275.

P285, means they are no where near E load. P stands for passenger, good ride. E are LT tires.

[MENTION=63543]CrimsonCountry[/MENTION] was smart a few years back and got out of the rough ride :-).

Sorry, I missed the P. Yeah I'm familiar with what E is, I'm trying to hear from someone running E's. I'm conflicted between which I should buy. My main concern is puncturing a tire on the trail but if it will mean 15 mpg all on their own...maybe I can deal with P's. I got word direct from falken that both the E and P are two ply sidewalls but the E's are reinforced and have deeper more durable treads. The guys said the P's will show wear faster.
