Hey CrikeyMike,
I have the 701v rear springs and with the roof top tent, drawer system, fridge and camping gear...according to this pic, am I sagging in the rear just a bit? I feel like I need more lift or something.

Doesn't look bad to me. Same wheels as mine too!!
You can either add 2 x 15mm spacers, one on top of each coil to add some lift if you're happy with the ride and spring rate, or you can change out to the heaviest C59-749V's.

Thanks Mike, i'll try the spacers route. I like the wheels too....they are heavy though, lol! You think the 749s will be much of a difference in height compared to 701?

Yeah, they should come up at least 1/2" I'd say.
Some guys on here have gone from the C59-701V to the C59-749V. Maybe they can chime in with their opinion.
If you want max lift and load support, the 749V is the way to go.

Not sure if I want to spend another $250 on the 749v springs yet, do you recommend any spacers?

That's why I was asking those questions. These will lift 15mm/0.59".
Dobinsons Rear Spacer, 15mm | 4Runner FJ Cruiser Lexus GX470 GX460
Just buy 2 and you're done.

Rear springs and UCA's
Hey Mike! how is the ETA looking for UCA's and 677v's in Red?
BTW, once I purchase/receive some 677v's I will have some 675v's in red available if someone is interested. or maybe someone has some lightly used 677v's available?

No reds on the way that aren't sold already, and it looks like the teal and black are all sold out too, so you'll be waiting til April+ on the coils. No ETA on the UCA's yet either. March perhaps, but maybe April+ on those too.
FYI, for anyone else reading, the majority of inbound common parts are pretty much sold out already, so those who place orders and wait for them to come in are getting their names on them. With so many other brands having huge supply issues too, everyone is pretty much buying "whatever is in stock", and that's not just individuals, but shops too that outfit a lot of vehicles.

How is your stock on SPC UCA's? I may not be able to wait that long for the Dobs UCA's. I'm on bald HWY tires until I get an alignment and then I'll put on the new wheels and tires. I didn't want to do an alignment twice.

Hey Mike, apologies if this a redundant question, but do you think that March+ timeline would also apply to a set of C59-300's and GS59-221's ordered late December, or is that far too specific of an ask?
Thanks again for all the help!

Could be completely different for orders that are placed already. Email whoever you ordered from and they can give you an ETA on your parts.
The other ETA's I'm giving in here are for people that haven't yet ordered. Guys from November are still waiting on parts to come in this next month.

Noted, I ordered directly from your site Exit Offroad, so I figured I would ask you here in case anyone else was looking at the same order time frame.
