Measured again and it is a bit over 3", probably closer to 3.5, but my factory suspension was kind of saggy. I have a little bit of extra weight from heavier skids and a compressor (maybe 50lbs). If you aren't planning to do new UCAs, then 885s might be too much and you probably will have...

Right about 3" of lift. Had the setup for a few weeks, no settling yet but I am expecting .5" or so over the first couple months.

Depends on where it is. In Seattle area, I would say that is likely worth $10K with decent service records.

Why not go with the OME Nitrocharger shocks? They are valved to match the coils and IMO they ride pretty well (at least to my tastes). They are also very beefy, which is nice.

Here is the result -- 2008 V6 4Runner with OME 885/895 with nitrochargers sitting on 275/70 KO2s. Still waiting on the Victory Sliders and Rack, but happy with it so far.

Lifted OME 885/895 (nitrochargers all around) with 275/70r17 BFG K02s. Wheels are off a 2020 4Runner TRD. Loving it so far.

I am having 885/895s with OME shocks installed on my 2008 v6 this week. Was going to go with 884, but Mule expedition outfitters strongly suggested 885 instead. I am adding sliders and new skids as well as onboard air in the engine bay, so some extra weight. I am also getting new UCAs to...

Wow looks great! Thanks for the info.

My guess is it will be more like 3" and eventually settle a bit to 2.5"ish

Looking at a similar setup myself. Anyone know if a BMC is needed with the Trail Wheels (15mm offset)?

I changed mine at 200k (changed all fluids at 200k -- 4Runner spa day).

You need to make sure your brake calipers clear. Most SR5s can take 16 inch wheels, but larger brakes were an option I believe.

A member of the Wrangler Forums posted some great pictures of the Firestone Destination X/Ts mounted if anyone is interested: Deciding between a P rated and an E rated tire. Same price, same weight. | Jeep Wrangler Forum

Anyone tried the Firestone Destination X/T 275/70r17? As stated earlier they are quite a bit lighter than other similar tires. While this may suggest a somewhat less beefy construction, my hope is that as an E load tire the sidewalls would be still be plenty strong.

Going to get the Firestones or the Falken AT3Ws in 275/70r17 -- will update with my experiences if I end up with the Firestones.
