Need some opinions on a suspension upgrade. Current: 5100s all around 1.5” spacers in back, stock springs - 1.5” lift 112620 (620lb) springs in front at 0” notch, 1/4” top spacers - 2-2.25” lift Stock UCAs No Diff drop 275s Option #1: Move 112620 springs to 0.85” notch, remove top spacers -...

Lookin' good. Saw and had a quick chat with ya on Speer in Denver. Don't know if you're on here or not, but I think you had a CBI or Shrockworks bumper up front right?

Etching primer and textured paint. Actually followed the directions on the can. Steel wool, acetone, light sand, acetone, 3 coats primer, drying time, 3 coats textured paint, drying time. Wear a good mask. Painting is a PITA, I would have paid someone else to do it, ... Maybe even powder coat...

Interested. Will PM you too.

I'm running the 112-620's in front with a 1/4" spacer and the 5100s @ 0". No additional weight in front, other than aluminum skids and steel sliders. This has netted me 2"-2.25" in front, been about 2K miles. In back is 1.5" spacer. See build thread for pics. Stock UCAs, but also am out of...

This was happening with mine, but only when my phone was connected via BT. Once I disconnected my phone, it no longer happens. Maybe it's something more specific than just connecting my phone, but I never dug deeper. I have a POS phone anyway, so maybe once I upgrade I'll try reconnected my...

Finally got around to installing my RCI skid set, sans fuel tank. It was mostly a breeze to install, other than about 3 solid hours for my limited skills. Did it myself, and I can recommend a few things that made it easy if you need to do it on your own... jack stands, bottle jack from car, and...

I was there too. Didn't meet any 4R folks in my short conversations and time there. Yes, next time I be there again.

Gonna try and make it too, 6:30 or around theres. I'll also be the one in the 4Runner.

Don't know about kid friendly... (I have 3 girl-demon-minions), but I joined up too and will try to make the next RMO meetup, and anything else that comes outta this thread.

Me too.

I'll mention another shop in the area where I had my install done, ToyCrawlers, up in Broomfield. Guy was a mech @ Toyota and does installs in his garage shop. $400 for the install, not incl alignment, but you can get a lifetime for $200 through them which is done @ Firestone correctly. I'd...

I think it probably would look nose high, that's my guess. Even though there is +2" factory difference (on yours too right?), getting it to a +1" difference generally gives that leveled look. And once you have gear in the back... Not sure what your plans are for front weight, like a bumper...

Will have to consider this once I feel the uncontrollable need to raise it even more. :p Once I get the sliders and skids from RCI installed, and go through a summer of Colorado trails... I'll see where I'm at settling-wise and if I should do the 0.85" option with superflex in the rear so I can...

Love it. Maybe I missed it, but what was the overall gain in front with the 112620s @ .85? 3.x"? I did mine at 0" in the front w/ a 1/4" spacer, with 1.5" spacers in the rear (see my build for my measurements); that is giving me 2.25" gain in the front after about 1K miles.
