I'm sorry, but i have to bail out... I got into a fender bender last week, so my 4runner is the shop... I doubt my wife' Sienna AWD (my alternative ride to MD over the holiday) can hang with you guys. lol Hopefully, this annual ride tradition will continue to take place.

Please add my name to the list! I'll be able to participate only the saturday event tho.

I recently picked up Focal ISS 690 from Crutchfield for $140 (brand new). https://www.crutchfield.com/p_091ISS690/Focal-Integration-ISS-690.html It is not 100% plug-and-play as IS 690 TOY, but it was close. All I had to using double-sided tape to mount Focal tweeters to stock 3.5 speakers...

I have Toytec's lower perch spacer + FJ TRD Pro kit on my car. My 4R definitely rides much stiffer than stock, but still smoother & comfortable than my previous car (E90 335i w/ ZHP). As I previously mentioned in earlier post, the ride quality degraded after putting this "stiffer" suspension...

I installed Morimoto kits on ‘13 Sienna and ‘14 Lexus ES350. Both have the same issue as the OP. I had better luck when i leave at “Auto” headlight. Solutions?? I switched Morimoto ballasts with Xenon Depot ballasts. Since then, 100% fire up each time: either manually or auto setting. Also my...

Please measure the spring length of Dobinsln’s 1” lift spring for 4runner TRD Pro and let us know. I feel like it will be about 13.5” in length which is right in between 4runner TRD kit and FJ TRD kit springs.

I used only half of Toytec 2” lift kit (ie only lower spring perch for 1”). I can compare my set up only to OEM due to my limited experience. I feel like the transition from OEM highway tires to BFG KO2 make my car slightly more stiffer than OEM suspension to the current TRD set up. Also, you...

From a non-related third party, this appears to the problem between the buyer and the seller (distributor), NOT the manufacturer who fulfils the order from the distributor upon their payment. So, there is no reason to get mad at Gobi. You should be mad at TD who did not pay Gobi as they promised...

Here you go~

I kept the original setting (i.e. top position for driver and lower position for passenger)

If you have $$$, i would say go for it. In my cost vs. benefit analysis, I decided to stick with OEM. So far, no regret with my choice. Just don't go crazy with front, you should be fine. I think my sub-2" lift is relatively mild set up for OEM UCA. Yes, there was about ~0.2-0.3"...

Finally, I installed the kit and gave a good workout at a near national forest service road. Setup: TRD Pro FJ suspension kit + Toytec 1” lift front shock lower perch + Dobinson CP59-505R (1.25-1.5” lift) for rear Installation: i almost gave up the installation after cursing at myself for not...

Based on what I read here, adding toytec bottom spacers is comparative to using higher notch on 6112 shocks. You are effectively preload the springs by 1/2” and lift the body by 1”. The chance of this type spacer coming loose and/or hindering shocks performance would be lower than tophat...

Get this one instead if the price is not your concern. https://www.realtruck.com/toytec-toyota-leveling-kits/baja1.html Much more reliable solution, but stupidly overpriced... considering that we paid ONLY $5xx for the TRD kit.
