Hey Ryan - can you provide details of the 19-20 Pro springs? Will there be any options for lift heights etc?

We're only making one spring for it. We have a target height, but we have not test fit yet.
Would you be interested in something that leveled the front, or something a little taller that would allow you to raise the rear too?

Thanks Ryan. Ideally 2.75 front + 1 rear, the same as your Pro kits.
That would likely end up with reverse rake.. most spacer kits for the 19+ Pros do a 2" front, 1" rear.
I already ordered the Eibach 1" rear spring in hopes of adding a 2" front lift either via EIbach coil or spacer. (Have the 2" spacer as well, but want the coil.)

Sorry, I was not clear. I am hoping for 2.75 front + 1 rear total after the Eibach springs.... so I guess the lift springs would be 1.75 front + 1 rear.

Does anyone make a poly replacement top hat to use instead of the stock rubber? Also no one every answered what size airbag helpers you would use with the Eibach springs. 2-3 times a year I take everything I own across the country as I move state to state working as a travel nurse. So I like the idea of the Eibach kit being not so stiff and adding airbags for the heavy cargo. Thanks
It’s got quite the squat fully loaded with stock suspension

Just pulled the trigger on the Eibach lift. Took advantage of Toytech's 10% off sale. Basically covered the shipping costs. Also ordered the Cornfed 1 inch spacer for the back. I don't mind having a little rake to the 4Runner at all. Can't wait to get everything in and installed.
Anything else I should need other then a good alignment afterwards? No extra parts or anything like that? Thinking of setting at the 2 3/4 front and 1 inch in the back with the spacers.

You might want to jump to the second clip if you add an additional inch of lift in the rear unless you carry a bunch of extra gear.
No other parts needed.

Perfect, I normally don't carry a lot of extra equipment or weight with me. From time to time, I'll carry my firefighting equipment if moving stations, but normally nothing else. What exactly will going to the second clip accomplish? First time lifting a truck, so a lot of this is new to me. Thanks in advance.

It just lifts the front more. I'm a little worried that 2" of lift in the rear might be a little too much rake. I don't think you need the spacer. Most run our kit as is.

Ok, thanks. I've been looking through pics on here. I think I will just install this kit and see how it looks. I'm kind of thinking along the same lines as you after looking around. Maybe i'll see if they can change my 1" for a 1/2" spacer, just in case. But looking at the pics, I'm thinking the kit alone should be fine.

Toytec Lifts sells the Eibach kit with tophats already installed. Toytec is expensive compared to everyone else. I tried to give them my business but it didn't make sense for me financially.
Regarding airbags, I found lots of good info on this board by using the search terms: 5th gen air bags for towing

Firestone looks to be the way to go.
If I find myself needing to tow my boat cross country again, I'll invest in some firestone airbags.

Imo, have it installed without the spacers. Images can be deceiving. Even in person depending on the parking spot it always looks like there is rake but for the most part looks level all the time. IMO adding 1" in the rear will give it too much rake on completely even ground and waaay too much on uneven ground unless pointed uphill.
It was my first time adding a lift to anything as well and I'm so glad I did. I get a lot of compliments on the way it looks. And for those that have ridden in it before and after find it amazing.
