So I got a toytec 3/2 lift with adjustable UCAs and now I need to order wheels. I’m going with the fuel shok D664 in 17x9 and I really am having a hard time figuring out if I need a +01mm or a -12mm offset??
I’ve only managed to find one video of a 4th gen with this set up and in the video it said they were the +01mm but I have not been able to confirm through messaging the maker of the video.
From other things I’ve read a +01 in a 9 inch wide wheel may not fit and will hit the UCAs? I just don’t want to order the wrong wheels !! Lol

Evan, I've seen most people go with -12 and myself liking -12 best. We've done a few here that went -12 as well with more luck with fitting larger tires. My vote and gms vote are for the -12!

Hi guys,
Thanks for this awesome informative post about lift kits for the 4th 4Runners. I see that a lot of people are willing to get rid of the XREAS system (which I don’t really care for). But my question is, if I get rid of it and replace it with after market non-XREAS shocks and struts, will I then get some kind of a “suspension” indication (or an engine light) because the system has been removed?
You guy’s help and time is appreciated.

Good question, and no, there won’t be any error code/warning light etc. I removed mine about 6 weeks ago, and the only indications I get since the change are no more nose dives when braking, and fewer clunks and rattles from worn out parts.

So a buddy and I installed 2016 Tacoma TRD suspension in the front of my 2006 2wd V6 today, finally! My 4Runner has almost 170k miles so I am pretty sure the stock stuff was sagging a bit, but with that being said I got right about 3.25" of lift from where it was, which gives it just a slight front rake. I have the rear Bilsteins from the Tacoma also, so I'm thinking some springs to lift it about 1" in rear would be perfect. Any suggestions? I'm thinking Bilstein B12's or Eibachs.
EDIT: Here is a pic of the 4Runner originally, and now (the rake seems a bit exaggerated due to the slope of the parking spot), and now next to a neighbor's 3rd gen Tacoma TRD. Rubs a little at full-lock, and you can see some slight positive camber, so definitely needs an alignment soon, but it drives straight and smooth down the road.

I have the ome 2895e. I haven’t put them on yet so I don’t know the actual height but it should be around 1 inch or so

I've had a OME suspension system with a 2" lift on my 08 Sport since September. Went with the light load coils in the front and medium load coils in the rear, paired with Nitrocharger Sport shocks all around. Ride was firm at first, but everything has settled really nicely. I've put about 3k miles on it since it was put on, and I couldn't be happier with it. It's particularly good off road, even with my stock UCAs (going to change those out soon though). The ride on even jagged, rocky trails was very good.

I'm running 5100's all around with ome 884 front and 895e rear springs on my 07 Sr5. The ride is a little firmer than stock but still smooth on the highway. Plus no more nose dive from braking. I also upgraded my sway bar bushings for the energy suspension ones.

Has anyone done the diff drop on Old Man Emu or installed aftermarket upper control arms? I called ARB and they said I did not have to but another shop said I did.
Thanks
