BOSS Lift kit or DIY "Kit" and Coil selection questions

[FiReBReTHa]

Hokay,

So i've been studying the threads and never saw my idea addressed. I am trying to plan my upgrades for later this year and get all my ducks in a line.

I came across the BOSS lift kit from Toytec
BOSS Suspension System for 10+ 4Runner, FJ and GX460

larger 5/8” nitro steel shock shaft front strut BOSS Shocks
600lb coil
Front Diff drop kit
Rear Bump kit
Sway bar relocate bracket
Toytec rear superflex coils 2.0"
Boss shocks
PRICE 1359$



Now if I do a mish mosh;
$650 2x 6112 includes 600lb Springs
$372 2x 5160 rear struts
$199 Rear Coils
$60 SBR-210 front sway bar relocate kit
$70 Bump stop extension kit
TOTAL $1351


I priced it out from a couple different vendors on the components. I was not sure if I was missing anything.
I noticed the price difference between the 5100 rear and the 5160 rear to be about 170$
I was planning on going for the 2.5" front raise and then 2" in the rear.
85% daily driver then a mischief maker on the weekends.

I was not sure if the BOSS is superior or if it's better to go ala carte. Thoughts?

Also, i'm unsure about springs so I any feedback is much appreciated as I continue my learnings.

TIA!

There is a difference in the rear shocks, I had the blistering 5100's to start, when one started leaking I got the Boss rear shocks. Is it a huge difference no, but the valving is slightly different somehow I think. The Boss shocks are made by Eibach (both front and rear) and the damping front to back did feel more balanced off-road imho. The bilstein was perfectly fine but I was disappointed that they leaked so quickly even with the replacement warranty I wanted to try the Boss rears. I felt like it wasn't a perfect match with the bilsteins but only noticed every now and then off-road. By the time I swapped them I had almost no damping from the leaking shock though so that probably biases me.

Early on the Boss rear shocks, at least one batch, had a problem and were breaking studs, it was discussed on the FJ forum. They did a slight redesign, I have about 6-8k on mine now and was happy I got them.

Edit:The super flex coils are nice and I would just go with them if I was starting fresh, note I have the HD due to added weight.
