So, I picked up a trail teams suspension struts with springs, rear shocks with rear coil springs all Bilstein off of a 2013 fj cruiser with 2k on it for $100.bucks. A toytec top spacer kit for $60.bucks and $100.bucks to my mechanic friend to help me remove the old xtreas suspension from my 2007 v8 sport 2 wheel drive and help install the trail teams suspension. Wow what a difference.Before the swap the front end was 33 inches from the ground to the bottom of the fender and the rear was 36 inches. With the trail teams suspension with the toytec top spacer it sets 37 inches all around and the ride is so much more enjoyable. I highly recommend this on any 4runner out there. A little bit of modification needed but nothing major.

all 4 strut/shocks for 100bucks? wow.
 
What did you modify to fit the FJ suspension? I know the older FJ stuff fits, but know the newer stuff takes a bit modification
 
On the struts I just had to grind down some of the bottom sleeve on the struts and on the rear I used a reamer drill bit to open up top mount a little on the 4runner. No biggie
 
Ill call your dog with the beach glasses and raise you a GS with Doogles
