Anyone know where to find the 6112’s without the springs? I bought the TRD FJ Pro Kit last year when Toyota was clearing them out and would like to use those 14” TRD springs with the 4Runner shocks to raise the front more since I’ve settled.

I’m running the FJ Pro TRD Bilstein Kit that Toyota liquidated last year with the switch to FOX. There’s a thread on here about the setup but it mostly deals with height setting on the front struts, there’s a one inch difference. In the back it was plug and play for me even with swapping in a...

I did the H9 upgrade a couple of months ago and finally installed 9011’s last night. What a difference for $20 a side. Thanks to the OP for the write up, cheers.

I was looking for a ‘sleeper lift’ to upgrade my rig and stumbled onto last year’s close out of the TRD FJ Bilstein Kit. I added a Daystar isolator in the front so the net gain was right at 2” and went with a Wheelers T13 rear spring which added 1”. End result, I upsized my rubber to 275’s and...

I've got the Powertrax No-Slip in the back of my FJ40, same basic concept but it quiet ... no clicking. It's got an extra set of springs that helps the locker unlock in turns so you don't feel the disengagement like you to with a Lock Right or Aussie and no clicking. Driveability is a little...

Finally changed mine this weekend, I have right at 79K on my 2014 and this was the first change. Oil was dark but clear and i had a surprisingly small amount of fine paste on the magnet.

I’ve been running the FJ TRD Pro Bilstein kit which is 6112/5160 and I went with a 1” isolator up front and a T13 1” over spring in the back ( nets 2 & 1 front rear) as my mild lift. Added JBA UCAs and was all in for right at a grand. Far superior to stock in all driving conditions and no...

How are the 9011’s vs the stock 9005’s?

WIX makes a good filter, Ive used NAPA GOLD 5173 which is also a WIX filter. May be the same one you posted. No issues to report.

Installed mine using the no spring compressor method and it was a one and a half banana job, first IFS suspension for me and I don’t really know what all the fuss is about. Took 5 hours with a rain delay. BTW, still like this suspension. It’s kind of a sleeper build, looks slightly bigger...

Hit the deck for Phillips H-9’s ... 3 bulbs off Amazon for $20. Took me about 10 minutes to mod all three. Popped 2 into the T4R and one into the glove box (since they have about half the life). What a difference for the $ ... night and day improvement from stock H-11’s.

Bilstein FJ Pro kit with a Daystar coil isolator so I’m lifted 2” up front. Left the mud flaps for now but I trimmed slightly and pushed the liner back. They would barely touch but you could really hear it.

You never know, my 275’s rubbed in reverse full lock which surprised me when I got em.

I just installed the FJ TRD Pro Kit (Bilstien 6112's up front and 5160's in back) on mine with a 1" Daystar isolator up front to net 2" of front lift and went with the T13's in the rear for 1" in the rear. Rides super, definitely a firmer ride but at that same time more compliant and composed...

No KDSS here, I haven’t really dug into lean. It’s kinda a non issue for me, guess I’m used to it after owning my FJ40 for 35 years.
