Possibly Some Help I just lifted my second 5th gen. This one was a limited, so I deleted the shot xreas and went with 6112 up front with the 8/6 positions yielding 2.6" and I went with the bilstein 1" rear lift springs and 5100s. My goal was to keep the stock Limited look, just more athletic. I...

I used 1/4" spacers on both sides to give it some extra height, I just dropped the passenger side coilover down one notch which is what the install directions recommended and my truck is noticeably higher on the driver side, which stinks.

Installed 6112s on my KDSS 2014. Here are a couple important tips/notes from my experience: -Bilstein instructions tell you to use a one notch LOWER SETTING on the passenger side---DO NOT DO THIS!!! You will end up with an uneven lift like mine. No idea what they are trying to compensate for...

Damn right I had bad things to say after spending good money on a full BOSS setup and having the replace everything except the diff drop after only 2 years! For christ sake, one of my rear shocks sheared right off just below the top mount, and my front coilovers were leaking and rode like...

I need some advice. I have the older style Toytec boss coilovers on my 14 trail and they are shot after less than 20k miles. I bought some new adjustable 5100s and I'm trying to decide whether I should run the red lift coils from the boss coilovers on a lower setting of the 5100s or run the...

Toytec are Garbage I was all stoked two years ago when I got my 14 trail, I did a ton of research and decided to go with the Toytec Boss system. Huge mistake! It rode fine for a while, then the front coilovers started clunking and riding like crap and more recently the driver rear shock...

Unhappy with BOSS setup Dont go toytec. I installed a full boss setup with Camburg uniballs and the toytec fronts were ok for the first year then they started clunking(like the sound my old trucks front struts made when they were bottoming out), but what really gets me is that I tried to...

I'd be down to check Nicolet out. Just let me know a weekend day!

Offroading in WI? I'm looking for the same. i just moved up to MKE from NC and have a lifted 5th gen on 33s. Am looking for somewhere to get it into some trails(hopefully without getting shot at). Let me know if anyone knows of any within a reasonable distance or if anyone wants to do a meetup...

Removed from my 2014 trail, it includes stock UCAs, front coilovers, rear springs and rear shocks. Components have less than 10K on them and are boxed up nicely. Would need to pickup in the Raleigh NC area before Saturday. $200 takes all. Thanks!

Anybody running Trail-Gear 1.5 Spacers? http://www.amazon.com/Trail-Gear-Toyota-Wheel-Spacers-6X5-5/dp/B004TBZYM0/ref=sr_1_7?ie=UTF8&qid=1430007044&sr=8-7&keywords=toyota+4runner+wheel+spacers

Any thoughts after installing the spidertrax? I have been considering them. Thanks!

Larger diameter for more clearance for sure!

Installed my lift and UCAs myself about a month ago in the driveway. It was kind of a ***** and a brutal day but I'm glad I did it versus spending the $500-$600 my local 4x4 shop wanted(including alignment). I will also say that this is the largest automotive project I have ever taken on--I'm no...

Installed my toytec 3" lift this weekend myself and I just got my 285 TA KO2s mounted and I'm loving it. I did however make one major mistake--I forgot to measure the height of the truck pre-lift to get a sense of how far up the adjustable coils have taken it and how far I should go. Does...
