Put on 5100's a few week's ago. Kept stock springs and didn't raise front (yet). No issues with KDSS. Really like the improved stiffness of the ride. Much better handling when I tow my 3,500lb trailer, too.

Thanks in advance!

(Edit: The reason I'm considering new coils is I'm concerned the removal of XREAS will affect my 4R's handling. I don't know enough about how removing XREAS will affect the handling so I'm erring on the side of caution. If the ride gets a little firmer I'm ok with that.)
I wouldn't bother replacing the coils. If you aren't lifting, just set the front at stock or 1 notch up for a ~0.85" lift in the front to level. The rear coils are fine as is.

If you want to minimize towing sag, I suggest adding AirLift 1000 airbags to the rear (they sit inside the rear coil). They're only $100 and work well.
See my previous post where we used them to maintain rake on our 4Runner loaded up for a road trip.
This picture is with the bags aired up to ~10-15psi but with the back of the car empty without gear. With only the tent up top (100lbs), the bags provide a lot of lift. They'll easily offset the trailer tongue weight and don't diminish the ride quality. FYI, I am NOT affiliated with anyone or anything. Just a happy customer of the Bilsteins and the Airlift bags.

Just to reiterate, this picture is with 1.75" set front Bilsteins (stock coils) and 1.5" Cornfed spacers in the rear but with the car empty and the airbags fully inflated, noting the crazy odd rake.

I took the plunge late last week and ordered a set of these Bilstiens. I'm not going to replace the sway bars at this time. I'll see how it performs before deciding on that. My 4R's days are numbered as I have a '22 4R on order (allegedly!!)

Ordered

Great price. Thanks!

This will be my second set on my 2015 trail.

I’m at 87,000 miles. The first set probably went on around 10,000 so 77,000 miles on the set seems reasonable.
