I have an icon stage 2, which comes with the 2" rear springs. I like them so far, but if you are going to be adding a lot of weight to the back, I would recommend the 3" springs. I have a cargo drawer system and am going to be adding a rear bumper with swing out sometime soon, and I will have to upgrade so the rear doesn't sag too much.

I believe the 2nd gen Tacoma Shocks would work with a 4th Gen 4Runner. Not Positive But.

How is the wheel travel in the rear? I'm going to upgrade to the metal tech LT springs with ICON 2.0 soon. What front spring are you running?

Wheel travel is good. I rub on my inner rear wheel liner but I've debated removing it so it stops. But I only rub when it's flexed out. I also need to drop my rear bump stops to prevent that.
Front I have the icon 2.5 ext travel coilovers with total chaos arms.

Did you have to put the 1.5" daystar in the rear with the metal techs? I'm starting to eye them and thinking I should have gone that direction to begin with.

No. They have a driver side specific spring that prevents the lean. I have driven mine hard and it's still even in the rear.
