I went 3” front and 2” HD rear springs and ended up the same. No diff drop. It has a 1” rake that only kind of settles when I load it up camping. I’ve gotten used to it and have only had good feedback. Looks like you could raise the front and be OK. Or swap to a set of 1.5 springs.

Millercat Shield in San Jose, Ca. $400.00 Saw this setup on a Tacoma channel. It is basically the Same as the RCI trans. skid with added wings except it’s all one piece. Problem is you can only run one or the other. Thin stainless shield or 1/4 steel/aluminum skids.

Everyone wants something Free, Until it’s not and they have problems. If the fuel pump was going to cause a catastrophic fire then I may be worried. I’ll take my chances with a failure. Not really a big deal to me. Call a tow truck and get r done. I don’t entirely trust all the kid mechanics...

Trial & Error I’ve been running LT285/70’s Toyo A/T 2’s for six years. E rated for max 80 psi. I did much of the same research early on. I knew from the start that the 32-35 psi the tire dealer recommended was way too low for a 10 ply tire. I started at 45 psi, drove on them for a few weeks and...

I’ve yet to see anyone run a boot or cover over the strut. The shock is inverted (wiper facing up). Surrounded by the spring anything that gets in will be low impact “usually”. More importantly you want it to find it’s way out. In the rear people sometimes run a boot (old school). More common is...

2014 te My headlights did the same thing for about a year but only in wet weather. Very annoying :ybrick Hasn’t happened in a couple years now. Also the head unit likes to freeze, shut off and reset a few times on long trips. Usually in hot weather. I suspect it’s a poor ground B-...

IMO As when adding a lift, tires and steelie extras each truck is going to handle differently. That being said driving it is going to be your only true test. You have to put it through it's paces in every condition to see what it can or can't do. At Hwy speed there's not much you can control so...

My Dealer said that they are doing away with 4WD on the Next Gen. I called BullShit! He said yeah. Some sort of AWD "PW Limited"crap. Our resale value will be through the roof.

I too Had to have white and was trying to order it from one dealer who was playing games. Ended up at another dealer who had a TE in every color ( rare find for sure). When I looked at the white up close there wasn't enough contrast (black or silver). It just looked like a service vehicle ready...

Lol My Bad Saker You're right. The dimentions are 6112ish just branded by TRD. Interesting reading though. Full of TRD hyperbole. I hope people are happy with the kit. I'm still enjoyed the experience of putting together the suspention I wanted. Sounds like A lot of people here feel the same.

Uhhh.... your link Uhhh.... says Uhhh... 5100 Series coil overs my friend. Just sayin Front suspension details: TRD-tuned 2.5-inch Bilstein® 5100-series independent coil-over-shock type suspension, TRD-tuned Eibach® springs, and factory stabilizer bar, end links and bump stops.  TRD-tuned...

I purchased the Phillips LED H16 from Xenon Depot and installed them with no issues. Huge difference and they run I believe at 19w which is way cooler. A great light and a great company to buy from. Here in Cali its not legal to use LED headlights plus I researched and the light doesn't...

Bilstein 6112's I've had mine for about a year. Have 10k on them and they ride great. You won't be disappointed. :cheers: Check in the Garage for pics. Happy Trails

KDSS Lean I took several measurements before and after my lift install. I too had about a 3/4 inch lean on the rear passenger side and 1/2 in the front. (full tank) I remeasured six months later and it had reduced to about a 1/4 inch even on the passenger side. I've checked it a couple more...

I've read and heard that the Full Time 4WD on the Limited gives it a harsh ride. With P rated twenties that would be unbearable. When I was first looking at getting the 4Runner I thought I wanted a Limited but after a lot of research I was sure the TE was the right choice. I think you have some...
