Suspension lift recommendations
Just paid off my 4runner! I've been running a spacer lift with 305/65/17s. Was just at 4wheel parts. They recommend an Icon stage 6 3.5 suspension lift. Thoughts? Looking at $5800 installed. I know more about Jeep lifts than Toyotas. Anyone have a long arm kit by any chance? Thanks

You do not need a $5800 high maintenance suspension

This. At the OP, unless you can afford to spend $6k on a lift and not lose sleep over it there are other options out there. Use this link: 5th Gen 4Runner Lift Buyers Guide

That 4wheelparts is ripping you off.
What you need is Icon stage one or bilstein 5100s,period.

Wtf, $6k for Icons?!!

That’s FOX/ KING/ Radflo territory. I would never spend that much on Icons personally.

OP hope you’re searching thoroughly around here before paying anyone that kind of coin.

If it were me, and I lived in the same state as Toytec....100% go there and chat with them. leave Jeeps, Chevy's, Fords,and Dodges to 4Stealparts. Just my opinion.

Welcome back T4R.org troll, the only things I've seen you post consistently is *****ing about people not searching. If you don't have anything constructive to contribute, wouldn't it be easier to not say anything, or is your life so pitiful and dreadful that you have nothing better to do than beat up people from behind your computer screen?

Good day sirs.....

You have lots of great options from simple daily driver Bilstein 5100's to offroad performance 2.5 ICON/KING/FOX/Radflo.

You can even go in in between with Bilstein 6112 or FOX 2.0.

The 5th Gen Lift Buyers Guide is a great starting point to see everything available.

Definitely feel free to contact some supporting vendors that can help walk you thru build ideas and options for the suspension you are looking for.
