Indeed it is. I was motivated by the cool weather we've been having, and also came across this guide for taking out the springs that is simpler than the official instructions. I should have totally done it the first time around. It was 10x easier to get the lines hooked up properly, the setup...

Now the previous posts complaining about the instructions all make sense! Looking at their site, the #60809 is for 4th gen 4runner 4WD, as well as 2007-2014 FJ Cruiser. The kit I did is listed for 2010-2021 4runner and Lexus GX460. Seems to me the bags are the same, just no puck, and obviously...

Except I did not follow the instructions, instead kind of went with the tribal knowledge heh. Looks like with airbags around 6PSI it's maaaaybe 1/2" higher in the rear vs stock (0 PSI). Not enough to matter IMHO, though I could have sworn it's a bit stiffer now going over speed bumps etc...

A number of people here (and other forums) have successfully installed the Airlift 1000 Air Spring Kit in order to firm up the rear axle for towing/hauling applications. Across many posts, people suggest various install techniques, including how many sections of the OEM bump stops to remove. I...

I have a 2018 sr5. The nose dive is real, makes your passenger feel like you don't know how to drive, and makes my dog car sick lol. This is just driving around town doing normal driving at normal speeds. I will be towing with my sr5, so I was already looking into air bags for the rear. But I...

There has to be a way to tap into the line going from the ECU and into the DLR relay. This would probably have to be done under the dash. It would make the installation much more complicated than many people would stomach, so the 3rd party mfgs are taking an easy way out. That being said, I...

Does anyone have the specs for '18 OEM SR5 running board bolts? I tried putting on the Trail Edition ones, and ended up ripping off one of the weld nuts inside the body. The threads/bolts are different! The TE running boards, PT938-89200 shows a "M8x25 Serrated Flange Screw" vs "8mm Hex SEMS...

I think this is the key difference. Sleeping in a tent while vehicle is parked would be much different than loading several hundred pounds on top, then barreling down the highway at 65MPH and hitting a pothole, or going into a sharp turn. So I would imagine the roof can handle quite a bit...
