5th Gen Limited w/XREAS - Level?

[Mikey_Cheng]

Out of curiosity how similar to factory is the ride quality for you guys going 2.5/1.5? I have a 1" cornfed spacer right now and can't tell the difference at all in ride quality, but not sure how a rear coil spacer would behave. tia

Drives like stock but I think it’s a little rough on gravel roads. May have had to due with my tire pressure at the time but was pretty bumpy. I’ll have to take it down some dirt roads soon but my 4runner is definitely a mall crawler for now lol

Hey Guys: will the spacers do anything about the “lean”?

I’m trying to decide between 1” front or 2.5/1.5 for my 15 Limited. I actually ove the onroad handling with XREAS...

Thanks!

Is there some reason why the 4Runner suspension is set up like it is, with the downward facing dog front end?

I got mine installed at a shop as well and cost around $500 with an alignment. I Personally I think the lift is perfect.

What are the wheels you have in that pic? Really like the look. I've got the same vehicle and have been looking at wheels like that.

Also looking for a leveling kit to fit the same tires. Any rubbing? What mods, if any, did you have to do to fit them?

I missed the wheels in your signature (RR4). Which offset did you go with?

Thanks

Looks good...Curious if you ever got the 2/1 lift-level or which one you were looking at.

Thanks. I have ordered it, and plan to install weekend after this coming.

This is the one heading my way:

2in Suspension Lift Kit for 10-19 Toyota 4-Runner 4wd X-REAS Models [767] | Rough Country (R)

With the way I use my 4R this should suit my needs, I just want it to sit a little higher and level. This should fit the bill for me for now. I will post some pics once it I have it installed.

2" / 1" Lift-level installed

Finally installed the 2" front, 1" rear spacer lift & had aligned. Love the height and look now, perfect for me.

Hello Sawman1. Are you still happy with your RoughCountry #767 lift . I am ready to pull the trigger on the same setup..I also have TRD rims in gunmetal grey and Falken wild peaks in 275/70r17 on the way ...

I am completely happy with it. Rides as it did prior, I rechecked after driving a few hundred miles, all was good. I'd do it again without reservation.

I’m running 1.75”/1” with stock 20’s if that helps?

Stock tire size?? Just wondering since im going through the classic cant pull the trigger on spacers because I get in my head about the ride vs. just ponyin up the extra 750-1k for a proper kit....

and yes it will be a pavement princess for the mrs so might just be overthinking it...

Curious what the benefits of a lift is other than cosmetic? It doesn't give you any greater ground clearance unless you get bigger tires and then you may only get an inch or so.

The reason I ask is that it seems that it will effect drivability due to raising the center of gravity and also aerodynamics. Is there any truth to this, or am I just making stuff up again? :shrug:

275/55/20 is what I’m running. Put those on before the lift...
Now, of course, I want to go bigger.

No issues with rubbing at stock height???

No issues at all with rubbing.

Just did mine last month. 2.5/1.5 Daystar, Nitto Terra Grappler 275/55/20 on Fuel Hardline wheels. Drives pretty close to stock. Little bit of rubbing on plastic inner fender liner at the left front at full right lock when reversing. Have not gone under to see what I can do about it yet. I'm enjoying how it looks.

New here, and bringing this up again. As I have scoured the internet for how to video's on a level/ lift install be it Toytec, Revtek, Daystar, or Cornfed on a 5th generation 4runner with Xreas I continue to come up empty handed. For those of you who have completed a lift or level on an XREAS equipped 4Runner... are you guys compressing the coil inside the wheel well? I have downloaded the instructions for a Revtek 2.5 front/ 1.5 rear... but a visual aid sure would be helpful. Anyone know of a how to video out there?
