Ive also got 3/16" weld on sliders coming and lower control arm armor. Future may bring diff skid too but that is it- no bumpers or winch

Mine arrived but I'm out of state so can't look up what exactly I ordered. Kurt's out of the country but his guys know their stuff. I ordered through Ben. You won't get more than 2-2.5" out of any OME, they design their stuff for performance, durability and stability rather than throwing together assorted parts to provide lift.

You'll be well set for the majority of trails in our fine state. What part are you in? I'm in Aurora/Denver. If you're in the Front Range check out frontrange4x4.com

Kind of a refresh on this thread, but wondering how this worked out for you Smoked?

Im currently running OE 886's with 5100's all the way around, and I still have a TON of flex in my UCA's.

Worried Im either going to blow another strut (factory ones blew) or snap a coil at some point, but I really dig the amount of lift. Im going to add some underplating and weld on sliders, but not really sure if I want to go the bumper/winch route yet and now wondering if I can keep these coils or if I have to go through the whole swap out again (which is a HUGE PITFA).

Thanks!

I ended up getting a Toytec Boss kit with JBA upper control arms. Figured, might as spend the money up front, do it right, and not worry while on the trails. Very happy with the setup. Cheers

Updating this old thread with some of my experiences since I couldn't find someone who had done the setup I did.

Background - I picked up a super clean 2007 4Runner SR5 4WD 4.0L last month after a lot of searching for a clean, rust free one, and it's been a bit of an adventure since. Unfortunately, on day six of having it, I got hit as the third car in a three car accident when a Suburban t-boned a woman in a Cadillac, which then jumped the median and hit me on the rear driver's side while I was waiting at a light. The damage didn't appear too bad - I needed the left rear door replaced, but was hit in the left rear wheel, which trashed the rear rim and tire, and upon further inspection, necessitated a complete replacement rear axle.

Since insurance was paying for the replacement rim, tire, and all the labor involved to replace the axle, it accelerated my plans to upgrade the rims/tires and shocks. This 4Runner replacing my Subaru Forester, so it's a daily driver and so I wasn't going crazy with a big lift, but wanted it to be more capable for gravel roads and to fix the front rake which was about a 3" difference and also had some seriously squishy shocks/brake dive, especially on the front end.

For wheels, I picked up a nice set of new takeoff 2020 TRD Off Road rims and installed 265/70/17 Cooper Adventurer AT tires (same as the Discoverer AT, just the Adventurer label is sold at Pep Boys). I've had really good luck with the LT Cooper Adventurer AT's for several years on my 3/4 ton Suburban 2500 and beater Chevy 1500 pickup, so went with the same for the 4Runner, just the non-LT version.

I was planning to go with Bilstein 5100's, but unfortunately, couldn't find them in stock to mesh up with the timetable when the body shop needed to do their repair, so I picked up a set of the yellow/blue 4600's. These are a few dollars cheaper, but the shock body is exactly the same as 5100's, just with yellow/blue finish instead of zinc plated, and the fronts are not adjustable - like 5100's on setting zero. When the body shop was done and the replacement axle installed and the 140k rear shocks replaced with the new 4600's, I gained just under an inch in the rear, which magnified the rake issues.

I found a guy locally who was selling a new set of OME 883x front coils (supposed to be 1.5" leveling coils), so I had those installed with the front 4600's (and re-aligned again) after the body shop was done with their work.

This has resulted in an almost perfectly leveled out truck with all corners measuring within 1/4" of each other. The rake is gone and the ride is much firmer, but not overly harsh. The factory front coils and original shocks were worn out and would dive badly under even moderate braking, and bottom out on speed bumps. That's all fixed and it's really responsive and smooth ride. I'll see how much the new OME coils settle in the next month, but if it's less than 1/2" I would say this is about perfect setup.

Four photos attached that shows the progression from stock suspension/rims w/265/65/17 tires to the current setup.
