4th Gen Suspension Lift Questions

Recently I installed a 3/1 Cornfed lift. FJ springs front and rear. As we were doing the front i realized i needed a front passenger strut. It was dead. Ive been looking and found these Bilsteins: F4-BE5-C477-T0
The height adjustable ones. I see these are for tacoma and FJ's, but pretty sure they are compatible with our runners. I would be running them on the 0" lift height.
Also since i have a 1" spacer in the rear and FJ Springs already, what would you guys do if you wanted some more lift in the rear for cheap.
I thought I would like the 1" rear which is fine, but curious if theres a cheap alternative to make my rear higher.
Thanks.

we pretty much have the same set-up....

just talk to jason burtman thru his website and buy the 2" cornfed for the back.

toytec ones are like $90. not sure on cornfed.
 
Yes, the C477-T0 shocks are the same as the C475-H0 shocks. I have them on the front of my '05. You will like them! I just reused my OE springs & bumped the height up about 1/5", but like you said, if you're going to be running FJ springs you will want to keep it set at 0".

As far as lifting the rear, it depends on how much more height you want. Like Shanesteeze said, there are quite a few options out there. I just got a 1.5" Daystar rear spacer lift set, but have not put it on yet (still waiting on my rear 5100s to arrive). I found the Daystar kit on Amazon for around $40.

Thanks for the help guys.
I would rather not deal with burtman again. Idk about your experience but that was my worst purchasing experience lol.
ill probably end up biting the bullet and get some ome rear springs and keep the rear spacer on.
Thanks again!
