I bought the struts pre-assembled by Toytec at a 2.5” lift. I just went out to look, and I saw three rings on the shock bodies. I assume that means my shocks are at the lowest setting. I hope that’s the setting for the most lift, not the least!

I like how it looks. It’s not a huge difference from my Daystar 2.5/1.5 spacer setup, but the difference in the rear is noticeable because of my worn out old springs.

I haven’t driven on the new suspension yet, so I won’t know for a while. I went with the 5100s because I don’t do enough off-roading to justify the 6112/5160s. I’m also going to install higher caster UCAs, put the front sway bar back on, and get an alignment done before I drive it.

2005 v6 4WD

Before:
DSF/PSF 18 4/8" / 19 1/8"
DSR/PSR Forgot to measure

After:
DSF/PSF 21 6/8" / 22 1/8"
DSR/PSR 22 6/8" / 22 7/8"

I think my old suspension must have been really sagged because it looks like I got 3" or more, but the numbers I have other people achieved with 2" lift kits. Actually, I originally got 4", but after 20 miles of driving and an alignment and settling, it lost about an inch.

Bilstein 5100s all the way 'round with the front on the lowest setting. Wheeler's T1s up front and Bilstein springs in the rear, with lean correction spacers both up front and in the rear.
