Talking DS 2.5" + New Shocks installed Friday

Dropping my 4runner off at 8am to get 2.5" DS lift kit plus new shocks (i believe they will be bilstein 5100s) tomorrow morning. I will make absolutely sure to get before and after shots up here as soon as possible.

This will be my first major mod. The few things I have done to my 4runner so far have been cosmetic.

62k miles and as far as i know the shocks have not been changed. Can't wait to feel the difference!

I went from stock to the 5100s, OME rear lift and BFG TA KOs at about 80K miles and I love it. The ride is a bit more firmer, not a huge change. Just dampens better for obvious reasons.

Enjoy.

won't make a huge diff, but consider spending $100 more to get the OME rear? and you know get the 5100s to match all around.
