Well, following all the good advice here I, with the wifie decided to make the change. (her Daily Driver; The San Diego Toyota dealer quoted us $3300 + tax for the XREAS replacement.All 4 shocks, no exceptions) We have been nursing a leaky RR shock for 6 mos. and now a LR Shock started leaking.
So with 2 FJ coils in the rear and 4 Bilies, fronts set at max, we gained about 3.0" at least. Also added some Toyo open country IIs 265/70/17 to the mix. The ride is so much better. Crappy SOCAL roads feel SO MUCH BETTER on my Azz!
The Toyos and FJ rear coils with 4Billies=$2200 installed
The Thule roof basket goes on this weekend...
I can't believe the difference in the ride and the height! Our TRK looks good on the road!
Heading up to Chama New Mexico, Durango Colorado & Moab UT and the Alpine Loop in a couple weeks. Ready, set, GO!
Thank your all for the input here. You guys are great!
Will def be paying more attention to this forum.
may have to trade in the family FORDRanger for another 4Runner!
Grats to all!
